Kamiya's on twitter now and it looks like people are bugging him about being disappointed and shit. Poor dude.

I tweeted at him that this might be my favourite game shown at E3 though :]

Poor Kamiya on twitter is getting hammered from people.
The game seems pretty fun,hopefully the multiplayer will be really good. And people saying it got N64 graphics watched only the first 5 seconds of the trailer.

What deference does it make? It's not a game that can easily be demonstrated and understood. It's appeal is somewhat niche and following Pikmin 3 it would have been even more confusing. Just look at how long this board crapped all over the game before people started understanding what they were looking at. Post conference was (arguably) the right choice for this game as it allowed for a more personalized first impression.

Couldn't disagree more. Show the game properly and people will pick up on it; show it improperly and people get bored. That conference desperately needed 3rd party 'core' games, and the very best of the bunch was left out. Whet people's appetites and then lead them to your website if you must; if they don't even know the game exists what good is a demonstration on gametrailers?

great to know!

care to elaborate more about nintendoland?

Well, as you know they have the 5 featured games on their " nintendoland" section of the booth. They are packed with people. let me describe a few of them: Played the luigi's mansion game. Its pac-man versus with a twist, and all my fellow players where screaming as i caught them (was the ghost and won :p). Zelda is like the wii sports resort fencing game with zelda themed influences. You have to work together with other players to activate switches, while the wii pad guy shoots arrows. Some switches can only be shot with arrows, like to open castle gates and so. The graphics are like a 3d yoshi storyfied zelda flair thingie.
The Donkey Kong game is a tilting uniracers like game. Difficult. you need to transverse a lot of obstacles, activate lifting devices and switches, all while tilting the remote minding your delicate mii in the vehicle.

Also, though unrelated, there was his really cool panoramic view app displayed for the system. You could choose from a number of real life world attractions, and while the images dispayed on the tv you could pan around in 360 degrees and see everything around you. It was amazing. The attractions where off the top of my head:

-being in the middle of carnaval in rio de janeiro
-flying with birds over a beautiful landscape
-a japanese garden with cherry blossoms
-british bus ride through london

its real life videos of these atractions somehow shot in 360 degrees and leting you look in every direction. even up or down.

Can someone give me a link to his twitter please? I can't imagine people having serious negative reactions to this game after seeing it today :/

Edit: Nevermind just saw the link posted earlier. Wow some people are just being jerks

While Nintendo's conference really didn't surprise me in anyway, no mysterious new games announced, but what was shown was pretty awesome, including this game. I can say I'll probably be picking this up, it looks really good.

People hate fun. More positive reinforcement for Kamiya is needed!

It's becoming one of my favourite games of this E3 as well. So quirky, charming and random with some really solid action elements.
 
Just came back from the show and this game is AMAZING. This and the games on Nintendoland (yes, you read right) really stood out for me as to how fun they are. P-100's games graphics have a certain "solid" quality to them thats hard to describe... its like you are playing with real life toys. What you don't see on gamepro's playthrough are the third person solo gameplay that occurs when you enter the buildings. Its just the viewtiful joe-looking hero with a behind the camera viewpoint solving the puzzle.

Needless to say, day 1. Kamiya, you viewtiful bastard.

Awesome, thanks for the low-down!

wow, this is sad.

What's really fun is these people would've bitched for everything

Bayonetta 2 on WiiU? Port it on 360! USA! USA! USA!
P-100? This game is the worst game ever!
Anarchy Reigns? Will wait for 9.98$ bomba!

If PG delivers a solid 4 players local and online coop they'll have my money, since the only games me and my friends can play with a single TV and console are really a few nowadays.

And God sent his one and only son, Hideki Kamiya, down to Earth to create games. And the games were good.

edit: I like that he admits he has no time to lend a hand on other games due to being busy with his own game and Twitter :lol

It's not 3rd party. It's not that type of 'core.' The conference was viewable 5 ways, the game was shown on 4 of those immediately after the conference. Anybody who cared to watch the conference should know about it.

You guys are really obsessed with the idea the E3 is only 60 minutes long per company.
 
Funny part is how many people would be hyped for Bayonetta 2, but it's only the 'same old shit' when it's a shooter, I guess.

I wasn't exciited for Bayo 2 at all honestly. I wasn't terribly hot for the first one. It would get purchased since it is a damn good game, but it doesn't really excite me at all.

Call me fanboy but this looks 10 times better than Wii Sports. If Panorama View will be in the package I'll be quite happy. /OT

This game is by far my favorite game on the show floor. During my booth tour I spent about 15-20min playing this and actually finished the demo, and I have to say that this is a MUST OWN title for the system. I truly hope it is a launch game, and not a launch "Window" game!!

Thank you! I will definitely buy it!

I love Kamiya and his games so I hope this launches on or really close to the Wii U launch so I can support those guys and hopefully it plays amazing because from the looks of it this haves a lot of potential. In other words DAY 1.
 
Looks like it'll be fun. Wow so many young graphic snobs on GAF/internet. I'm glad that the gameplay is getting rave reviews by people who actually have PLAYED it.

Well this game might get me to buy a Wii U at launch if it's a launch title. I was planning on waiting a bit after the lackluster conference but I don't think I can resist this (if it's truly as good as it looks)
 
from the gamespot video, it does seem nintendo wasn't too sure about this game. Hopefully e3 will give it enough positive buzz for it to be promoted a bit more prominently in future wii U conferences.
 
I'm sorry, the gameplay looks fun but I can't see why anyone would champion the generic Duplo block look, which Nintendo has already completely overplayed with all their casual software. Simple =/= unique Kamiya...

This, Pikmin, and Rayman have made this so easy for me, honestly.

He hates being asked about it. Especially when people complain about it.

Of course, anyone would, but I mean more in the sense of just what he thinks as a game versus as a dmc game. Like, as a game, it looks so-so, but artistically gorgeous to me. It's kind of like how they were able to civilly ask Remedy what they thought of Max Payne 3.

After 3DS and Vita, I would hold off until we have firm dates. 'Launch window' has turned into a bullshit term.

People have asked that and he doesn't care about it at all.

I just watched the full Gamespot Live demo walkthrough, and it looks really fun. The stages are varied and creative, the game has a ton of personality, and the various moves and the mid-bosses and stuff all look pretty fun. :D
