Bioshock Infinite has already had too much coverage for a Nintendo showing to have any real impact. I'm talking either a new announcement or something where the developer has been extremely quiet.Mithos said:Maybe Bioshock Infinite, or any other 2012 releasing PS360-game.
Cow Mengde said:Hey wait, what happened to the Fatal Frame 2 remake for the Wii? What if that got moved to the Cafe?
AceBandage said:Dunno if I can agree with Craig here. I think they'll have a bigger focus than the first Revolution showing, simply because it'll be out so early next year.
Yeah the reality is Cafe is basically getting 2 years worth of E3s in one year. The Tease E3 is being passed over and going right to the debut and lead up to launch E3NTom64 said:Yeah, hasn't it been confirmed to be playable? That alone sets it apart from the Revolution.

Fourth Storm said:Their track record didn't count for shit once my Wii started to overheat and their tech support wanted 70 bux to fix it. It's a far cry from the time I drunkenly pissed into my Gamecube and the fucker resumed functionality the very next day.
Fourth Storm said:Chrono Break, anyone?
Joint Square Enix/Mistwalker production. A man can dream damnit! I mean, Nintendo brought Kid Icarus back after how many years?

It's the Nintendium-ABS copolymer that made their entire hardware legacy so indestructible. Hopefully we see it used in the Cafe and 3DSLite. Say no to glossy, fragile stuff!Anth0ny said:Fuck yeah Gamecube.
I am quietly saying a prayer to the universe that this happens.BY2K said:Darksiders 2.
A Zelda-like at launch. It WILL sell.
From The Dust said:wouldn't that be Red Dead 3?
I think "Red Free or Dead Hard" sounds better.fishfishmonkeyhat said:Red Dead Revolver 3: Red Dead Redemption 2; The Reddening.
test_account said:Seeing that Cafe/Wii2 might still be a year away, how big of a chance is there that we will see much gameplay from it? Especially for 3rd party. I know that it has said that Cafe will be playable at E3, but that could simply be a tech demo of some sort. I'm really curious to see some 3rd party announcements though
Yeah, probably.I'm also looking forward to see the 1st party stuff as well =)BY2K said:I think it will mostly be First Party. Including Retro.

"After April" does not mean it will definitely come out in June. Which isn't really "so early next year" as much as it is the very end of the first half of next year at absolute earliest.AceBandage said:So, here's what some major journalists think we'll see at Nintendo's conference.
Dunno if I can agree with Craig here. I think they'll have a bigger focus than the first Revolution showing, simply because it'll be out so early next year.

I think it'll be out by the end of Summer 2012 at the latest. If it weren't going to be out before/around E3 2012, I very much doubt Nintendo would be doing a playable reveal.ShockingAlberto said:"After April" does not mean it will definitely come out in June.

. Café (a project name Im told has already been internally abandoned for another)
Dont expect a huge focus remember when Revolution was revealed on-stage, it was a look how tiny this thing is! announcement. Café (a project name Im told has already been internally abandoned for another) will be similar. Heres our controller idea, or at least most of it. Tune in next year. Now talk amongst yourselves.
No, I was sleepwalking, but it appeared as if I had actually opened the disc tray and pissed into it. When I tilted the tough lil sucker, piss came pouring out of the side vents.Orayn said:It's the Nintendium-ABS copolymer that made their entire hardware legacy so indestructible.

BY2K said:I don't agree with this. This won't be like the Revolution reveal. Because unlike the Revolution at E3 2005, Project Café is GOING TO BE PLAYABLE!

How can Nintendo reveal Cafe like Heres our controller idea, or at least most of it. Tune in next year." if it's playable? Plus, it's going to release before E3 2012. It's a repeat of what happened with the 3DS.
Announced a while before E3. Full reveal at E3, plus playable and released less than a year after the reveal.
ace3skoot said:i think basically if we take last years conference as template, cafe will have a showing very similar to the 3DS, 3DS will replace the Wii of alst year with some big announcements and some key 3rd party titles, and Wii will have SS, Kirby and maybe pikmin 3.
This neglects that Iwata has already very strongly implied software announcements at E3.ShockingAlberto said:It could be a lot like the Revolution reveal at TGS.
Short mini-games and playable tech demos (that may or may not become games down the line) and actual, substantial game announcements and booths some other time.
Nintendo showed with the 3DS it doesn't mind hosting its own events.

...yeah. And minigames were used to demo the controller that later made themselves in to Wii games.From The Dust said:the Revolution was at TGS? only the controller was revealed. nothing more
ShockingAlberto said:...yeah. And minigames were used to demo the controller that later made themselves in to Wii games.
Trying to make a distinction between the controller reveal and a Revolution reveal is kind of....stupid.

DragonKnight said:Not to be a Debbie Downer or anything but I wouldn't put to much stock into what Geoff is saying like "lots of surprises!". I'm sure he knows a fair bit about what is going to take place (as does everyone else in the industry right about now) but it's his job to hype these things up. I would love to be proven wrong though especially on the cafe front

It was an event for press only held in the same building as TGS, during TGS, but not part of TGS. I mean, we could split more hairs if you want, but it's becoming tiresome.From The Dust said:there were demos? I don't recall Nintendo even having a booth, which would imply a public presence. unless you mean a backroom booth for journalists
yeah wasnt he going in to supposedly help them clean up the whole gaming side of things for iOS?Instro said:Eh there being "surprises" or w.e. is a pretty standard line from him, sometimes he's telling the truth sometimes he's exaggerating. So I'm just going to ignore his tweet for now.
Isn't he working at Apple now or something?

Pachter is backing up IGN on production starting in October at 1 million units a month. They arent gonna make 12-15 million units and sit on them for a yearherzogzwei1989 said:I too expect Cafe to be released in the fall of 2012, but I know that many people believe it'll be released sometime between April and June.
