Nintendo E3 spotlight

[DerNebel]

You started, with as if there was absolutely nothing positive about the show.  That the possibility that a few people enjoyed the show had to be a joke.  Your reasons don't matter to other people, because they don't share the same opinions.  And I'm trying to explain that there were some positives about the show, by giving reasonable possibilities for why the problems you have with the games shown, aren't what other people are seeing.  

Nintendo is releasing a new member of the 3DS family next month.  They aren't getting rid of it at the end of this year.  Game freak can support the 3DS for a few more years, at which point Nintendo is likely to release a new portable centric console.  

The "are you kidding me" was because I was shocked that everyone was so high on this conference on here, while I thought it was so bad. I was surprised at the difference in opinion. You're reading too much into the verbage of a non-native speaker.

Also Nintendo might release a Switch version that ditches the dock or whatever, but releasing an entirely seperate new handheld would just be bonkers of them. They are on the way to converging their handheld and console software development teams, why would they split them again?

I mean  it's no different to FF7R.....

Which at the very least had a trailer. But they could have iced off with that in retrospect as well.

"Part 1 by 2020". What the fudge are you doing SE?

Yeah I'm just saying they did this to hype up the fan base. It's a long awaited title fans have wanted and knowing it's being made gets th excited.

I'm with Dernebel on this.  You guys are literally praising Nintendo for the same things you're shitting on Sony for.  "There were no surprises with Sony's conference, 6/10".  Nintendo literally announces more of the same, which they've been doing for the past 20 years and you're all "This is so amazing 10/10".  Like, they didn't even show gameplay for Metroid!

I gave it an 8/10, only one point more than sony.  And that was judging it as a 25 minute video. I'm not saying Nintendo was amazing and I'm certainly not shitting on Sony. If I treat them as the same spectacle and pretend Nintendo's was supposed to be a long press conference then I wouldn't score it as highly.

Sony dropped the ball by announcing nothing new, and this is due to them announcing too much in the last two e3s. Meanwhile Nintendo announced over 5 new exclusives for their systems, and you can guarantee they'll come out sooner than a lot of games after Sony's announcements.

Sony didn't announce much new.  Nintendo did announce something new, despite those announcements being expected.
There is a difference.

Honestly if Sony announced Jak 4 without any screenshots or anything I'd still be losing my crud, so I don't think them not showing anything takes away everything. The announcement is still a net positive.

Sony did announce a lot.  They announced like 5 games on their pre-show and another 5 V.R. games on their main conference.  The majority of them weren't sequels either.  Nintendo announced nothing but sequels.  Not even early sequels.  Games that are on their 3rd or 4th iteration.

Just by going by the conference:

That's 5 VR games vs 5 games.

For someone like me, Sony conference is much better.  It had lots of other stuff.  

For someone like Basil, who dislikes CAR for no good reason.  
Sony's conference had absolutely nothing and Nintendo's was much better.  

I personally don't see the issue with third or fourth titles.  On some level sequels are what people usually look forward to.  Because they fell in love with the game of the previous ones and they are looking forward to the next one.

Are you honestly telling me that Naughty Dog announcing Uncharted 5 and some other company announcing a good looking new IP, that you would be way more excited for the new IP?

If it's good of course.  Why do you think Naughty Dog planned to put Uncharted on ice for a while and just happened to expand an expansion story into a full game?  Hell The Last of Us got more interest than Uncharted 3, that has to tell you something.  We've been getting Metroid and Kirby for over 20/30 years and they haven't evolved much.  It's not even so much what Nintendo announced was bad, it was more of the same.  That's literally been NIntendo for the past 20 years.  Splatoon was the only thing in a long while that was a risk.  Where's more risks like Splatoon?  Also don't ignore the pre-conference either.  Sony announced titles there too while showing off titles they had announced prior.  Like my issue is that people are literally complaining that Sony didn't show anything new, while Nintendo is getting praised for showing sequels?    Like would you rather Sony's conference have been Twisted Metal 6, Uncharted 5, Jak 6, and whatever sequel Crash and Spyro are on?(Edit: As if Sony announced these sequels a year after releasing the last releases)  Cause that's essentially what Nintendo did.

I Care a lot about presentation and fun value of the shows as shows.

NIntendo was more enjoyable to watch even if by the numbers it was not special.

Like would you rather Sony's conference have been Twisted Metal 6, Uncharted 5, Jak 6, and whatever sequel Crash and Spyro are on?

Yes that would have been a million times better.
