@Handy_Man lol those would all be really funny to see in a Mario game. It seems like Nintendo could do it too with how SpongeBob was in Splatoon somehow
This is one of the best Humble bundles I've seen. Even a better deal then the Humble Nindie bundle from last year. I'll be paying the $13 for all of the games as soon as I get home. I don't have any of these games so this is gonna be a pretty great bunch of games for me to play.
@Nomad I've been saying they should do that for almost a year now. It would make so much sense (and for a guy who has all 55 Smash Bros Amiibo) It would be so amazing to be able to use them all in a Skylanders type game.
I never realized until looking at this how poorly the XBone sells in Japan... Gosh... I mean I'll admit I'm a Nintendo fanboy, and I don't personally like the XBone, but those sales numbers are NOT good at all
@Xenocity "A joke" was a poor choice of words on my part. Sorry about that, but yeah. That's how Nintendo is sadly seen. Which I personally don't think is right, but that's just how the mainstream "hardcore" gamers have been trained
@MJKOP They HAVE to have something up their sleeve. They wouldn't make this kind of decision without something insane and wonderful hidden in the E3 presentation
The fact that so many people are so upset about the NX not coming out when they thought it was going to is just plain dumb. Like I'm sorry, I know a lot of the people are extremely negative and pessimistic, but come on. It's coming out a few months later then you thought and now you're saying this is going to be the worst year for Nintendo? Announcing the NX at E3 would kill the system. PSVR is going to be what the press focuses on at this year's E3. If the NX was announced, it would get pushed to the side and ignored by the press. That would kill the system before it even started for the mainstream gaming market. It's actually an incredibly sound tactic to wait. And Zelda U being the ONLY playable demo sounds fishy, like I'm sorry. It's either:
1.) That it is the only playable game and Nintendo has THAT much faith in it (which wouldn't be too surprising with how succesful Zelda games are)
OR
2.) Nintendo's lying. They're saying that so when there are several surprise games playable on the E3 show floor, the press and fans will go crazy for it all.
@Gerbwmu I completely agree. I think that's exactly what this E3 will be. You nailed it right on the head. Which in all seriousness, doesn't worry me at all.
I remember playing the demo for this game back when it first came out and now I'll be getting it as a part of the Humble Friends of Nintendo Bundle. Can't wait to really sink into this game
This seems bad to me, but at the same time, I can't say I'm worried. It seems like Nintendo has some crazy stuff hidden up their sleeve for E3. Even if it's not for the NX. Maybe some unannounced Wii U and 3DS games.
Wario Ware would be such an entertaining game to play on a smartphone. I'd love to see that. Everyone in this thread is definately right about it too. Wario Ware would be perfect to play on the go in quick little bursts.
This is exactly what I wanted from the trailer. Something fun, doesn't have to be graphically impressive, or overly complicated, but fun. It'll be a good excuse for me to go on some nice long walks
I actually enjoy the game quite a lot. Answering questions, and hearing things about my friends is really addictive in a weird sense. I love it so much lol
@Pod Yeah! It seems like this E3 will be full of games this year. Which is really exciting I even predict some surprise Wii U and 3DS releases we don't see coming at all.
@Vandy I think there has to be some huge E3 announcements for the Wii U and 3DS if they're not gonna talk about NX. I have a feeling that Nintendo is gonna come from nowhere and surprise everyone this E3
I'm not bothered by this at all, but I feel like this will be very split. Some people will be upset it isn't coming until 2017, and others will be happy it's getting released on both the Wii U and NX. I'm personally really happy they said anything about it
@smashbrolink You're 100% right. With all 3 of those things Nintendo could take the gaming market by storm once again. Especially if they market it right and have all of that 3rd part exclusivity. I think something that would really bring the people in would be that since Kingdom Hearts 3 is coming to both PS4 and XBone, that maybe the NX could get an exclusive "Final Mix" edition of the game. For those who don't know, the final mix versions of Kongdom Hearts games have updated graphics and have added bosses, bits of story, and new enemies and cutscenes. That would really bring in TONS of people to the NX. Especially since Kingdom Hearts has appeared on Nintendo consoles before so it's fan base would be more comfortable getting a Nintendo console I'd think.
@readyletsgo NEX sounds really clever! I like it! A little homage of sorts to the NES. The going back to the red and white coloring also sort of backs it up as well.
@IceClimbers Oooh! I'm really curious to both of those as well. Miitomo allegedly has been doing really well from what I hear and Splatoon has to have sold amazingly
It's like so many companies have tried to take Nintendo to court and lost. It's great to see Nintendo taking down these lawsuits left and right. Good old Nintendo! You show em'! Lol
I have yet to download this. Not because I don't want to play it, just from my huge backlog of games I still have to get to. It's been so hard to play with work taking over my life.
@Steel76 Gosh I'd absolutely love that. Kid Icarus Uprising was an incredible game. The two analog sticks would be perfect for playing it too. I'd agree that Kid Icarus probably won't get much attention this year, but we can hope
@Grumblevolcano I'm reserving my judgement on the game for now. I'd like to play it before I decide what I think of it. I'm hoping maybe they saw the reaction to Sticker Star and will go from there.
@Grumblevolcano Oh... Well that's a little underwhelming... I mean hopefully maybe at E3 there could be a big Metroid related surprise... I can hope at least... I mean Zelda got that whole huge E3 thing for its 25th anniversary... Nintendo's seemed to be sort of ignoring anniversaries recently (aside from Pokemon) I'll stay optimistic though I have faith in Nintendo.
I don't know if Nintendo realizes this or not, or if I'm even correct in saying this, but isn't it also the Metroid 30th anniversary? Also I'm quite excited to hear some news from Nintendo. Even if it isn't the biggest news. Just something to add to the excitement a little and maybe disperse some of or all of the rumors surrounding it as of now.
I'm convinced this game doesn't even exist at this point. They're just pretending there's a game to release lol But whenever it does come out, I'll be happy to purchase it. I don't mind the wait. Miyamoto himself said "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad". So in my head, it's a good thing that they're really taking their time with it.
I would love to be able to use Shovel Knight in Mario Maker. A lot of those Mario recreations of Shovel Knight stages would be a lot cooler with being able to play as Shovel Knight himself.
I think if the mainstream audience just stopped being so thick headed about games having to be "dark" and "gritty" and gave Nintendo games a chance, they'd see what they're missing. Nintendo games are (in my opinion) the greatest games out there. I know if there's some kind of way for Nintendo to break through that barrier, they will Nintendo's never let me down, I know they won't now.
I've been very short on cash and haven't been able to pick up Splatoon yet. Is it really as fun as I hear? It seems like a game I'd really enjoy. But I want to know before I spend any money. Just to be safe.
I'm hoping I can get a card, it's surprising how fast they go here in New York. I don't know very many people who play Pokemon or even Nintendo games in my area but somehow the whole stock of cards magically disappears lol
Okami is quite the amazing game. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was playing it for the first time, or even the multiple other times I've played it. As much as I'd love another game in the series, I can see where the developer is coming from. Some masterpieces should be left be, as to not soil the original. Even with how much I'd go crazy for another game in the series lol
I'm quite optimistic for Nintendo's future and for E3. I mean maybe that's just me being optimistic as usual but I'm very excited. Nintendo has never let me down in all my years of gaming. Whether they announce NX or not, I think they have quite a lot of games under their belt to announce. I don't even personally think E3 2015 was bad for Nintendo. I think their only mistake was that they dropped their two big bombshell announcements right before their E3 presentation. (Roy+Ryu in Sm4sh, and Earthbound Beginnings). So this lead people to think that the E3 presentation was a bit bare. At least that's what I think. Whatever the NX is and whatever comes in the next month or so, I know for a fact, it won't disappoint.
@OfNullAndVoid Okami would play so well on the Wii U! You're right! They could even make a more HD version of Okami-Den on the Wii U and pack them together like Bayonetta 1+2
I've never actually played The Binding of Isaac, I think it looks like something I'd enjoy. It seems like it at least. Any feedback about the game anyone on here could give me? I'd like a little info before I buy it
