How do think we'll see 3DS getting out of E3?

I really hope they at least a few titles to announce, at the moment the only 3DS game I'm looking forward to is Smash Bros and Persona Q(which might not even come out here).

Are you in Europe? Because Atlus already announced that for NA this fall.

I think he/she is asking for another Pokémon Red remake, like Fire Red.

I personally would take a remake over another generation with more 10000 pointless new Pokémon.

That would be wonderful. Mario Sunshine 3D and Metroid Prime 3D. <3

Ah ok. Making sure because I was thinking, wasn't there already a remake? So they want a remake of a remake? I don't think we're at that point yet. Let them remake Ruby and Sapphire first then we can talk.

Basically, yes. Some people believe we're getting Fire Red and Leaf Green remakes to commemorate the franchise's 20th anniversary, which will happen in two years (I think?).

I do believe Ruby and Sapphire remakes are far more likely, though.

That's exactly what he/she is asking for. Another remake like FireRed. Not of FireRed.
idk man, apparently reading context isn't my forte D:

Didn't even know it was getting to 20 years already. Wow.
 
What did we get last year at E3?

As far as I remember it's Bravely default, Zelda, Project X zone, Yoshi's new island and Phoenix Wright.

Anything else?
 
I'd like a new Nintendo handheld that was more powerful. The fact that the system can't properly support GBA VC is crazy to me.

U.S. release date for Harvest Moon: Connecting to the New World, please. Also, other third party announcements. I hope they just keep focus on the WiiU this E3, it really, really, really needs it.

What I would really want:

Dragon Quest VII
F-Zero entry
Original Star Fox entry
Metroid entry
Monolith Soft 3DS project announcement
Majora's Mask 3D
Fantasy Life Localization
Rodea the Sky Soldier information
Kaio: King of Pirates announcement
That new Harvest Moon game announced for localization
Beyond the Labyrinth localization
Time Travelers localization
Smash information
Devil Survivor 2: Break Record information and localization

Stuff that was striked out will never happen, no matter how much I want it. F-ZERO BELIEVE!!
 
I like that small thing they did last year that focused on just 3DS games. I'd rather they focus a "main" presentation with Wii U stuff, because that's the market they need to grow.

Likely what they'll do is have the broadcast be peppered with both of them, especially from the Treehouse.

You. We should be friends. I had completely forgotten about Fantasy Life and the Monolithsoft 3DS project until you brought them up! My hope has withered so thin by now, but an E3 announcement of any of those things (Harvest Moon, Fantasy Life, Monolith 3DS project) would make my year.

Take off Devil Survivor 2 because its not even out in Japan and we don't even know if its still alive. Most likely on hold what with Atlus going full out Persona this year.

Smash Bros is the only game Nintendo has announced that is coming out after E3. So it will probably get at least a few game announcements to fill out the rest of the year. Majora's Mask and maybe a localization (DQ7? Fantasy Life?) are the most likely candidates.

Also, the Monolith Soft 3DS game isn't a thing. Their main studio is all hands on X, and the Kyoto studio has worked on already-released 3DS games - Animal Crossing and Link Between Worlds. IIRC both of those came after the whole "Monolith Soft 3DS game" rumor.

It's certainly a weaker year than 2013 but 2014 isnt as dire as people make it out to be.

Yumi's Odd Odyssey
Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy
AA vs Professor Layton
Mario Golf: World Tour
Kirby: Triple Deluxe
Persona Q
Conception 2
Theatrhythm ff curtain call
Disney magical kingdom
Tomodachi life
2 one piece games
Smash bros.

Give me some localization news at e3(dqVII) and a couple of good first party titles(metroid, majora's mask, wars, etc and its a darn solid year for me.
 
I don't think it's time for the Majora's Mask remake yet. Between the Wii U game and Hyrule Warriors, they have enough Zelda already.

I'd say it's the perfect time. They have been making a lot of nods to the game for a while now, so they need to strike while the iron is still hot.

Still some good stuff coming but it'll be all downhill from last year. Big first party game predictions:

-2D Mario (not NSMB)
-majoras mask 3d
-pokemon z
-new super metroid

Plus Smash. Not bad.

I'm expecting new games and localizations, but Nintendo will likely have a Direct two or three weeks before E3 centered on 3DS, so that E3 is focused almost entirely on WiiU, similar to how they did it last year.

I think we're getting Metroid 3DS and Advance Wars 3DS, and a few eShop titles.

The supposed MonolithSoft 3DS project.

Maybe Monolith soft´s 3ds game? They have been working on it for a while.

Roflmao. There is no "Monolithsoft 3DS project". :p

Whatever happened to that pirate penguin game?
It's suppose to come out this year but I wont hold my breath (it missed last year's target and the year before that).

All they showed was a CG trailer so it could just be vaporware (and Inafune has been working on other games now like Mighty No.9 or Soul Sacrifice)

So they hired all those people in their Kyoto studio for no good reason? I wouldn't be surprised if it's on hold given the urgency of getting X out and assisting Nintendo on other first-party titles, but I still believe it will come.

Pokemon Z or/and a remake of Ruby and Sapphire wouldn't be too unexpected.

2014 definitely isn't nearly as excited as 2013 was on the 3DS front though.

I hope someone from NoA reads this thread and sees that fans are asking for Metroid, Advance Wars, F-Zero, Majora's Mask 3DS games and decides to answer the prayers of fans by announcing Fossil Fighters 3D at E3.

I'm hoping for something from Intelligent Systems. I think an Advance Wars 3DS would be a great eShop title for Nintendo, and I could see them going the DLC route on it as well. A new Fire Emblem seems a given at this point thanks to Awakening's sales, but I don't know if they'd announce it at E3.

That said, they're apparently working on some Wii U title, so I don't know if they have enough manpower to have a 3DS team going as well if they're also helping out with R&D stuff as usual.

By all those people you mean the 20-30 that have been helping on other titles?

Also yes the localization situation on the 3DS is quite sad. At least release some as E-shop titles.
 
Ok, so, every year we go through this. Every year between Feb-late May, everyone starts freaking out about the fact that we don't know what games are coming out, and "OMG [insert console name here] is DEAD this year because it has no games!!!" Every year E3 rolls around, and every year, there's plenty of games to play.

Calm down and wait 5 more weeks. The 3ds will have plent of new software this fall, as will the X1, Ps4, and Wii U.

Well except for Wii's 2008....and 2011, and 3DS's 2011 end was kind of weak too. I'm sure there will be something to play though.

Just like Wii U i hope its something unexpected, a few surprises and third party collaborations for Wii U/3DS, something that is not a Mario spinoff or a platforming game

New Super Metroid
Fire Emblem Awakening sequel
Pokemon Z

This is what I want to see, this years 3DS lineup is miserable so far

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
I'd love to see a small price drop on all 3 models to sort of give another boost to sales. Try and get that 2ds down to $99, get the 3ds under $150, and the 3ds XL away from the $199 price point.
 
I think Nintendo's gonna be more focused on rescuing the WiiU so I'd imagine 3DS's output will slowdown for a bit. My backlog on 3DS (and DS!) is daunting anyway so personally, I don't mind a slow-down on the handheld at all.

With that said, I'd be freaking ecstatic if we got the following:

  • Majora's Mask 3DS
  • Goddamn DQVII
  • Exact release date for Layton x Ace Attorney
  • Time Travelers
  • That Monolith Soft game

I can't decide if I'd rather have it on 3DS or WiiU...
People would rage so hard if the next console Zelda game was another remake.

Personally, I would prefer to have the remake on the 3DS. 3DS games are cheaper... plus seeing Termina in 3D would be amazing.

Majora's Mask 3DS is looking more likely and likely. It's a beloved first-party game that can be made in very little development time, so it could be a big holiday 2014 title.

Mario 3D Land 2 is another possiblity, though I don't know if they really want to do another sequel. They should really do something new for a change.
