Idk I'm having a pretty good time watching how easy it is to waste people's time personally

The way I look at it, if my source was correct that's great. Otherwise, at least we can have some fun hyping up the Nintendo showcase while keeping expectations tempered.

Let's just say people might be getting double what they asked for from the return of a long awaited franchise.

Also, a riddle (these pictures are related to separate things):

HAL for first

guess blizzard works for the second one as well.


Actually a blizzard game wouldn't match with that you said since you said "return of a long awaited franchise"
 
Sources are telling me there's going to be a Mario game tomorrow

No specifics but they've heard the word "Portable" .......Switch maybe???

1. Hal Labs and Platinum Games present: Devil May Kirby

2. Snowborne by From Software


I believe that all the evidence points to these guesses being 100% correct.

So something to do with HAL
And a Blizzard game. My very strong guess: Diablo. It's pretty obvious I think. They already have previous gen assets for it, it has a focus on local multiplayer, and there's a new retail sku currently planned for the other consoles as well. Count on it.
 
Don't have too much interest in watching them during press conferences but I've been going back through their pre and post shows. Just watched their pre-Sony show. It was funny how hard Kyle wanted to talk about Shadow of the Colossus but he kept getting delayed until the conference started. In their post show I thought they were a little too harsh on it (talk wise not score). I don't think there was anything they could show for Call of Duty and Days Gone (except Huber) that would have changed their mindsets on them. I agreed them on basically everything else though.

Text Guess:
Metroid by Retro and F-Zero by Sakurai

Picture Guesses:
HAL doing the port of Smash U to Switch
Blizzard porting Hearthstone and maybe another game to Switch

Overwatch on Switch, I feel, would be a great business move for Blizzard and a huge boost to Nintendo's image.

Truthfully, I think it would sell incredibly well.
 




Let's say the second Pic means Blizzard and Blizzard = Diablo 3 on the Switch. I don't care what you nerds say or how long Diablo 3 has been out Nintendo won E3. That would be huge but I don't believe it. Second game Hearthstone.


I'm not a big fan of riddles. Especially on forums. How close are people getting to the actual answer? Will you tell us of someone gets it?
 
The death of E3?

Not to say that E3 may have a bit less importance with additional conferences now throughout the year, but honestly sometimes there are just off years.

I remember E3 2011 and E3 2012 being especially just kinda "eh" and there was a lot of talk then about E3 basically being a dying show, but once the new consoles started rolling out and we hit a few years of strong games being ready to show we got the whole grouping of solid years from 2013-2016.

Sometimes you get years where everything is just kinda solid, if not mind blowing. And even then this year we've got some nice presentations like A Way Out, Anthem, Beyond Good and Evil, Mario + Rabbids, and such.

Though we also still have Nintendo ready to go, so maybe we'll get a few more additional surprises before this is all over.

The problem with you guys saying blizzard is that this guy said the return of long awaited franchises. So I wouldn't say diablo or hearthstone as these are current.

The thing about Beyond Good and Evil 2 is that...while the trailer looked really cool, it's not in-game and we don't really know what the game is. It's also the 2nd time the game's been announced, so...maybe they'll ship it this time?

Anthem, Dragon Ball and Rabbids looked good though. DB is probably Game of Show right now, though

Sorry, I'm trying to be intentionally vague to try and protect my source.

I will say that the all three hints have been guessed correctly at this point, but not all by one person.

I will also say that the text hint represents two games from the same franchise (one of which is on 3DS and Switch). I'll also say it's not Pokemon, as much as I wish it was.

Finally, I find some people's interpretation of the second image pretty funny. It makes me wonder if they've lived anywhere with Winter weather ;)

God those teases are killing me, I'm working at home tonight until late and having a hard time focusing because Nintendo's conference is near.

The double thing is particular exciting because I read it as either two Metroid games (3DS and Switch?) and Metroid + F-Zero, and both sound fantastic to me.
 
Mother 3 has been in the cards since they talked about it at E3 2014

At this point they've been sitting on it for Switch

They never would've mentioned it if it wasn't, and they just brought out Earthbound Beginnings

Well, your second pic's text says "BLIZZARD" on it, so...yeah. It could also be F-Zero cuz Cars, below freezing, 0 degrees, etc.

If it's 2 games for 1 franchise, then it HAS TO BE Metroid because the rumors have flown everywhere where that series is going. I don't think my poor heart could take such an attempt at destroying me.

I feel like the text is referring to Hey Pikmin and Pikmin 4 but that would be a bit odd considering we don't need to see Hey Pikmin again

Fair enough, I understand. Well I suck at these kind of things and am the type that needs it spelled out for me.

I lived in NYC growing up. I know about blizzards and winter weather. My mind went to Blizzard because there's a couple of their titles I would love on the Switch. Anyway, out of all the clues you've given the winter pic is the one I want to know the answer to. You have to protect your source but after the event can you tell me what that winter pic meant threw PM?

The DC Universe has always confused me...

Except maybe Batman. But even that has an expanded universe that isn't well covered outside of comic books.

My interpretation of that last part is that maybe the last image isn't harsh enough to qualify as a blizzard to you? Most people have guessed Blizzard.

If that's not Blizzard then I'm lost.
