Nintendo E3 2006 Conference Thread (start at reply ~#1300)

Remember the amazing surprise when Twilight Princess was shown off at E3 2004? Nintendo's press conference on Tuesday will be something on the order of two dozen of those "holy shit!" moments, all strung together. Fanboy tears will flow.

I'm guessing Kid Icarus will show up in a reborn Dead Phoenix from Capcom. That game has be MIA since it was "canned", and it's the obvious fate for it.

Then they'll announce that the Wii will have Mario, Metroid, Zelda, and Icarus in the "Launch Window".

Then again, Miyamoto can blink and fanboy tears will flow.

"He blinked!"

"Can anyone confirm that?"

"Yes, I can confirm Shiggy blinked!"

"Video of the BLINK compressing now!"

"Was it one eye or both?"

"I believe it was both eyes."

"BLINKATON!"

OMG Do you have video of said blinks?
 
Top 5 for me

5) Zelda TP(again)
4) Wii Pilotwings
3) Wii Mario
2) Starfox 2 DS (or whatever they change it to)
1) Super Smash Brothers Wii

Oh and honorable mentions are phantom hourglass, and anything that Intelligent Systems touches. Come on Fire Emblem DS/Wii...
 
Nobody seems to be expecting WarioWare at the show. I'd put that down as a title that has to be at launch, personally. It's another platform that seems tailor made for it.
 
*As awesome as NSMB will be, it won't be the best DS game on the show floor. And to really throw you for a loop: neither will Zelda.

Hmm I just went back and saw this....

I am gonna put my money on the DS shooter(starfox 2?) that was mentioned in that french interview with Miyamoto.:)

They are the UK times

Sort of - UK is currently in British Summer Time, which means it's 8 hours ahead of Los Angeles time.

So Sony's Conference will begin a midnight for those of us in the UK.

Nintendo's conference is at 9:30am local, so it's at 5:30pm UK.

Microsoft's conference is at 11:30am local, so it's at 7:30pm UK.

Countdown

I would'nt mind a Luigi's Mansion part two. The nun-chuck and remote make the possibilities endless for a game like that. Manipulating moving parts in 3d space and etc etc...

The game would just have to be a bit longer, more fleshed out, more things to do and etc. I would'nt oppose to a LM2, tbh.

Seriously. I actually WANT a Luigi's Mansion 2, the first was my FAVORITE Gamecube launch game. The Wii controller is just too perfect to NOT make a LM game out of it.

you know I wish Nintendo would announce at E3 that they will finally stop shafting Europe. They've been talking about it for years, but Europe still sees hardware and software months after the US and at inflated prices. DSL and new DS games will be late to Europe, Wii will be late to Europe, Wii games will miss the Xmas period in Europe and get March release dates - it's a standard and pathetic pattern, especially given the size and importance of the European market. Referencing the occasional title that made it out within 4 weeks of US launch does not make up for the systematic delays in the majority of titles and updates/colors of hardware.

Whoever stops fucking Europe first will win

So much truth in here, it hurts. I'm getting sick and tired of it, I'm already making plans to import my next gen consoles and games.

Yip, its a fucking joke. The different languages thing might be a hurdle but in this day and age it shouldn't have that big an effect.
