These "Demos" are really starting to tick me off. So many people seem to think that " hey if this guy can do it why can't Nintendo do it". These Demos are very simple to put together, using default in engine assets/effects and a basic knowledge of animation, coding and modelling, a lot of people could do this.
Sure it's cool to see Samus in HD, but I would suggest that all of these demos look worse than games already in existence. These Demos will look like crap in a few months (they already do, but I digress), but super mario 3d world, Metroid Prime (1,2,3) and Skyword Sword will look great for years due to art style and attention to detail in animation and modelling.
I don't mean to be too high strung, but with these videos keeping on popping up this feeling has continued to grow.

oh also... that name though; "THE game Awards". It's just bad.
"whatch'a doing?"
"I'm watching The Game Awards"
"Whos?"
"The Game Awards"
"Yes I know, but WHOSE? Gametrailers, IGN..."
"The Game Awards... the VGA's"
"Oh... okay"

@Peach64 It wasn't too good either... This show needs a proper overhaul, it feels completely phony most of the time. Actually what you said about GT makes me want them to invest in a large reward show, as they have become one of the most genuine large gaming websites out there. Brandon Jones would be a great host.

Sorry more and more thoughts keep coming to me. So I don't really doubt the leak any more (except that I think the roster pic is from an earlier build), however I still think that we have more characters than are in those picks. So that said, I wonder if Reyn, Sharla, Fiora, or Melia will make the cut.

Also, am I the only one who's going to turn Japanese on, just to have the Japanese voices, as that's how I played the original Xenoblade.

DAMN IT... i wanted riki to be playable..........

No but seriously I'm so hyped. I'm also glad that the team he uses in his final smash was the team I mained in xenoblade. (PS I own the game for wii, got it on a wim at gamestop on launch and now it's one of my favourite games of all time.)

Now, I've had reservations on this game; specifically the possibility of it having limited single player. The fact that this almost starred Mario makes me think that the games single player could be something like that of 3d Mario games. I think I've said this before, but I'd kill for Splatoon to be a collectathon .

@Luigifan141 And here I'd thought I'd dreamed that movie.... Oh dear. But really, I'd like to see The King too.

@aaronsullivan http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knMwVnlvBxM at 1:30... That's just from an on the floor question though.

@aaronsullivan In a gameplay discussion (on a site I can't remember) they said they had asked the devs and, indeed full voice chat (not only in lobbies) will be available.

@Xtremetdifan Don't worry boys and girls... there is always a Nintendo Direct not too far along the horizon.

@MixMasterMudkip Okay now I'm really getting the Xcom Vibe. The latest XCom was designed to look like action figures (as stated in early interviews) and this has that vibe.

@JaxonH You are right (though I see those two as more likely being part of a mini game collection). I guess what I meant was games that could spawn a franchise.

@Warruz The part about "running out of steam" sounds especially like Time units from the original XCom.

@Retro_on_theGo As stated by others, The Nintendo Tree-house is doing an "extensive" look at this.

To all the people calling this a disappointment because it's not Majora's Mask. First: hold your horses, the way nintendo is doing E3 could bring anything later on. Second: This is a NEW Nintendo IP... Just think about that.

Third person combat elements... As a PC gamer I can't help but think of the new X-Coms cinematic camera.
Edit: the more I here the more it sounds like X-com/Valkyria Chronicles.

@IxC Source? I can't seem to find proof of that...

@Dizzard true. But I consciously discounted those, since AT THIS POINT they're not really anything more than experiments.

@Haxonberik I think the idea behind revealing things like this is to keep the information flowing all throughout E3. So with that in mind, lets hope to see more over the rest of E3.

So this is two new Nintendo IP this E3; this and Splatoon. Very impressive...

I have to link to the song that is a nice juxtapose in consideration to mario kart wii... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TX0HtrGasQo&feature=kp
