You try talking infront of a massive crowd without stuttering.

I get that some people are unhappy with the presentation, but to start picking on the speakers, come on. Also, Reggie, Miyamoto, Iwata etc are a brand. When gamers see them they think Nintendo. They would be stupid to put someone who a lot of people haven't heard of to do their presentation.

To be fair, the 3DS guy was pretty bad.

While I've never been in front of a crowd that big, I've performed and spoken in front of audiences of hundreds of people many times, and I can handle that OK.

Talking in front of people is hard and I personally this m jobs is the only personxwho has impressed me with his ability to command an audience. Don Mattrick and Jack Tretton give off a used car salesman vibe.
And E3 this year came Down to this

I'm honestly surprised that Sony didn't announce a dance or fitness game.

There is one thing that was odd is there was no Iwata on stage. I wonder what happen to him.

It was Miyamoto and Reggie for WiiU. Iwata and that other guy for 3DS?

But what if Iwata didn't appear for the 3DS?

Then oh wells. Not a big deal...

I heard of an Iwata sighting with Reggie in an elevator yesterday....not to mention the round table.

I just want a price and a release date.

I have a feeling they are struggling to get this ready in time, they have a lot to do before then and we will probably end up with Wii U systems that are missing a lot of the functionality until updates come 6 months or a year later.

Sigh, my do I get the feeling that Wii U is going down the same road as 3DS did? It will sell well the first month or so, then sales will drop due to over pricing and lack of good games, then later the price will be cut and the really good stuff will come in (Smash Bros anyone?) then it will be up there with it's portable counterpart. Just watch this happen again...

i think they should have waited one more year. the timing is just.....not right. i don't know many people who have even heard of wii u at all. extending the wii franchise is just a misstep to me. so many people will not understand that it is a new system. i'm sure the big big games are coming...just not any time soon. nintendo just needs another revolutionary idea....before apple does

I was a little disappointed yesterday. But I was just browing over Nintendo's e3 website and I find myself getting more excited. Nintendoland, Mario U, and Pikmin 3 are actually a good solid first party line up for a launch. And there are others. But those 3 games alone make it ok. I think they focused their E3 on launch stuff, not games that'll come out next year.

Pikmin 3, New Super Mario Bros. U and ZombiU have me quite looking forward to the Wii U launch, and there are plenty more that have been announced that I might get depending on how they turn out and how much money I have.
While there weren't really any big surprise announcements during the press conference which was a little disappointing, there is still a lot of quality titles on the way early in the Wii U's lifetime and I'm sure there's plenty of other first party and third party titles that are still yet to be announced.

The Wii U launch is going to devour my bank account.

Why would you not show off a Platinum Games game?! Are they just idiots?

Their facebook just said they are going to "be delivering info about a new game every hour for the next 26.2 hours."

I just wanted Star fox....

No matter what your going to say, Nintendo flopped... terribly. It's got some decent first party titles lined up for launch but that is about it and none of them are sparking "BUY ME, BUY ME NAO!" it felt too much like a rush to get through it and never felt interesting or near exciting. It felt more like "here's the Wii U! here's some 3rd-party games... here's a few of our games... here's NintendoLand... BYE!!"

And not a stellar game in the bunch, at least for me. Maybe I'm getting bored with gaming, either that or gaming is starting to lose its magic.

"Animal Crossing 3D is a game that exists,"

Hour later

"Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (or whatever the title is) will have Luigi using a vacuum to suck up ghosts."

Whenever I see Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon... I instantly think of Twilight... anybody else think the same? No? Oh... okay then... sits in the corner ashamed

Title reminds me Transformer's 3rd movie, lol.
