Well, if you harass those guys long enough they will eventually tell you something you want to hear. We had Pikmin 3 coming for the last couple of years, too.

I guess this wasn't mentioned because it isnt a 2012 game.

One hour of conference and they can't say a single sentence about this?

Of course it's coming, but that could mean two years from now LOL.

I assume it's next year since Nintendo seemed dead set on focusing on 2012 at E3.
They could have just said "We know you've waiting this long... yes Fire Emblem is coming to the West." and then ended it. That's all they had to do.
When did publishers begin losing their GOT DAMN MINDS? Put it on your PR list of releases, but it in a teaser video, MENTION IT IN A PRESS CONFERENCE. Take THREE SECONDS to say "Fire Emblem is coming to North America." You're already having the conference, it's just more advertising for software you're releasing. God almighty, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!
Salsa I haven't been around GAF this long, but are people normally this whiny and bitchy around E3?
It seems like no-one is happy, even with loads of games coming to every console.
Also, FUCK YEAH FIRE EMBLEM!

NoA seemed pretty dedicated this E3 to shutting out anything that wasn't releasing "this holiday" in the US.

FUCK.
They didnt say it at the conference because its not coming this year like everything else they have shown

Did the big 3 have some kind of contest this year to see who could lose E3 the hardest? Is the backlash from the announcing announcements convincing them not to announce anything anymore? Is that why we're finding out about Nintendo's games outside of their conferences?
I don't understand this E3.
I don't understand it at all.

Nintendo is trolling at full force this E3.

listen to the mad man
See, here's the thing--on the one hand, I agree. Announcements are announcements. Hell, they could not do the announcements at all and just release the games and it wouldn't make a difference. A year later the conferences are basically a joke you laugh at and the games are there for you to actually play and everything is awesome.
On the other hand, if Nintendo's official MO is to waste everyone's time in conferences and then announce a bunch of low-key shit ten minutes later, then I'm going to stop watching the conferences and just check GAF ten minutes later
They didn't need to say anything, they could just use the logo slide at the end to put up a half-dozen logos and it would have pacified 99% of the immediate reactions.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
So it takes a year to localize a game now? Not like it would cannibalize sales as the people that want FE are going to get it either way and the casuals were never going to get FE anyways.

It not being a title coming out the same year it's announced hasn't stopped them before from announcing shit.

Hell yeah, I'm ready for this. They should have dedicated a small section of the conference to "Upcoming games" or something like that, they seriously messed up. Tons of people are gonna be happy.
Well to be fair, the flood of preorders for Fire Emblem from the larger public would have cannibalized NSMB2 sales.

Oh I agree on that point. They mislead the fuck out of it, and it makes me mad.
But I totally understand why they would decide not to show these types of games in the conference (though a logo would work).
The people who care about this game now know about it.
No, they completely ignored Project P-100 at their conference.
Common sense is lacking at E3. Nintendo is so oblivious as to what they think fans would really want to here. It's like pulling teeth.
Fire Emblem is nonchalant like that.
