Every time they open their mouths I get more worried.

I think it's time just to show the dang thing.

I've lost my shot at a Charizard not once, but twice, and countless other Pokemon because of the game freezing and crashing. Everything is bound to have its setbacks, especially on this scale, but it certainly does make you want to keep playing.

I think it is a really smart move that is going to sell a ton of these things.

I don't even know what to say. Holy...wow. Day one.

Pedobear the Pokemon.

So cool.

Proof that is you slap Pokemon on it anything will sell. The "game" itself is barebones, glitchy and kind of terrible the way it does catching in general. I doubt anyone would care if it wasn't Pokemon.

That said I've continued to play when I have spare time Or when I'm out on walks anyway. I don't see it burning this hot for long though.

Is Cloud ever coming?

Oh man. Please Capcom and Nintendo being the game and all those gorgeous Amiibo to the US.

Well deserved, it was the best thing at E3.

I need more Pikmin Animated for my sanity. My children have watched those 3 hundreds of times and I have every minute memorized. The characters are a perfect fit for an animated show. Get with Netflix and make it happen Nintendo.

Pikmin 3 was amazing and the bingo mode is great fun.

@VanillaLake SubHd? What is it running in? Also, you'd be hard pressed for even the PS4 to run a game like that in 1080 with 60 FPS. Mario Kart is one thing, but this is a huge open world with tons of stuff to render. On the Wii U 60 FPS on an open world isn't realistic.

@VanillaLake The FPS is on par with most open world games like Assassins Creed and Witcher 3 and 60 FPS is nowhere near essential in a game experience. Halo 5 had 60 FPS and it made it buttery amooth, but I've also played Halo at 30 my whole life with no problems.

They will kill that number.

I've played VR and am not at all impressed.

I'd really like the Zelda one, but am a complete noob at importing.

@ThanosReXXX I sure hope so, I don't think it can afford a delay. Marketing has never been a Nintendo strong suit.

Either way I'm on board. Wii U may not have been a commercial success, but I think it's exclusives have made it a must have system.

@ThanosReXXX If they said that than I certainly did. However, if they actually plan on having this out in March that is an extremely narrow window for marketing and hype, 6 months between announcement and release unless they push it back again which would be extremely foolish.

This is whole cloth rumor. A September reveal would be waiting too long, with a new Zelda likely coming out day and date with NX they have no need for a stop gap with Skyward Sword, and it's highly unlikely it will run on Android or be as tech heavy as a PS4.

@IceClimbers I don't agree entirely. With Xbox and PlayStation soon asking fans to pay for new systems the market is there. Let us also not forget that got most gamers having a Nintendo for exclusives alone is almost mandatory if you want some of the best experiences out there.

I think if they show diff something new and shiny with tech on par with the Xbox and PS4 that they would have a shot. They certainly won't if they put out another system woefully underpowered and try to skate on their games no matter how fantastic they are. Wii U has imho one of the best exclusive lineups today, but that doesn't matter if nobody buys it.

I agree with you that it's an uphill battle, but with the hardcore crowd at least it's a chance. With the casual market I don't feel they have a chance at all.

Bottom line is if they want a large install base they have to have third party support and to have third party support they have to have tech on par with Xbox and PlayStation so the games are easy to port. Without that they won't even get off the ground. They need to stop trying to recapture the Wii market and move on because casuals have.

Reggies comment left me shaking my head. The way I see it they can't replicate the success of the Wii with casuals. They hit at the perfect time with the Wii when awesome smart phones weren't exactly the norm and casual gaming isn't what it was them. At this point all those people have moved on: they have their cell phones and tablets and they are set.

Nintendo had a real chance here to get ahead of their competition and release a beefy machine. Xbox and PlayStation to upgrade to these new systems will have to deal with a stigma of leaving day one people behind but not the Wii U. They literally had a fantastic chance handed to them and sounds like they are going to pull another Wii U out. I really thought they learned their lesson.

This may be a disaster though I really hope I'm wrong, because a beefy tech machine partnered with Breath of the Wild on day one could have really moved systems.

Mr. Lopez, I hope you get to read this, as I felt that was an extremely well written article. Great job with structure of the narrative as well as imagery within. Well done.

I'm betting on MH Stories.

After getting home and finally being able to watch all they showed I'm floored. I know we have a ton of open world games, but this just feels different. I absolutely adore the art style, feels like an open world Miyazaki anime I can go whole hog on.

Let's hope it releases day and date with NX and that NX does release in March.

Sold.

This looks amazing. Between this and Horizon it looks like my gaming year next year is going to kick a lot of ass.

Yeah I've gone in there. It'll be a wasteland of broken dreams come next Tuesday.

I really do not want VR at all and I hope that isn't the new gimmick. At the present that is exactly what VR is as far as gaming is concerned: a gimmick. Most of the "experiences" they have currently don't even approach games and we are a far way off from seeing something engaging from VR.

Even if they did I doubt they would say so in a public interview when they are likely under massive NDA if they do know.

There won't be a demo. I'd be happy to be proved wrong though.

I need this amiibo.

I'm not sure what everyone is talking about it sounded like almost every Let's Play I've listened to. In fact I had to double check Nintendo out this out because the narrator didn't sound like a generic bored white guy ala Xenoblade X.

I don't care who does the voice though they needed something like this out there. This is the first time I've really seen something on this game that made me think this looks cool.

Looks neat but seems incredibly inconvenient.

@Geno-Beatdown Sorry for the confusion, there should have been a comma. It Only Does everything was a slogan for the PS3.

Honestly between the logo and the phrase I'm really digging it and would put money it's going to be the slogan for the NX.

Also for those of you looking for one I don't think it's a pun or play on words it's literally just a phrase. Like It Only Does Everything.

Look at that owl with his leaf bowtie! I hope he evolves into a gentleman bird with a top hat.

@Discostew I'm not worried about the space as much as the cost and not being the industry standard so it's another hoop the dev has to jump through I assume. (Keep in mind I don't make games and only have a general idea of the process of lasering discs or loading cartridge with game.)

Wow, this is terrible. What is Nintendo thinking?

Yeah, because splitting off to another format from the rest of the industry always works for them.

My kids adore Yokai and one is a girl and is 3 and the other is a 10 year old boy. They like the anime a lot.

What are they thinking? This E3 was theirs to win now they won't even be part of the conversation.

Well that is a terrible way to start a morning.

It is the Duke Nukem of 2D games.

I love Nintendo, but if they don't have the basic online capabilities of the other consoles or the technical power to house third party games then I won't be supporting them this time, at least not at launch.

You would think those two things are a no brainer, but you really can never tell with Nintendo. Sometimes they are brilliant and ahead of their time, but just as often shot themselves in the foot. You really never know which company will show up.

What confuses me is why people that haven't played the game and have no intention to are coming in here and belittling or arguing with the ones who do like it. What do you care if they like the game?

Pikmin Animated Shorts are the most watched video in my house. Make more stuff like this Big N.

@Alundra-1998 Thank you! It's my screen name, Gamertag and PSN handle. Pretty much anywhere I can put it!

@Blastcorp64 It is far too soon and this leak hurts them. I know people that were ready to buy a PS4 and now are waiting for that upgraded version. Developers don't see happy with this set up either as it further complicates things.
