Wait, am I reading this right? Gabe Newell just walked on-stage!? WHAT'S HAPPENING, GUYS

lol

 

[botty]

So LegoCity is definitely Wii U launch title?

 

[JakkuFurosu]

THEN BRING MORE GAMES OVER

yup

 

[Game-Biz]

THEN BRING MORE GAMES OVER

Yes, Iwata bring us your wrath:

 

[GameplayWhore]

THEN BRING MORE GAMES OVER

I asked him. Reggie interrupted and said "You already have Mario, what more could you possibly want?"

3DS 6 out of top 20 titles in US (15 out of top 20 in Japan) ← considered disappointing, looks like

 

[Javier]

Wait I thought Theatrhythm was announced for NA? It's not on the pdf.

Likely being saved for E3.

 

[Nilaul]

"New Nintendo 3ds. The 3DSm; which stands for mobile"

 

[Anth0ny]

Have you given them a slideshow presentation yet on why the physics in Brawl are bad?

Not necessary. They all think brawl is ass.

Sounds...exciting.

They're all smashed (no pun intended). Take a drink for every stock lost. I haven't lost many stocks :3

 

[shadyspace]

Who is Gibbogame thinking of when he tweets out these investors meetings and nothing else?

 

[Pappasman]

"Only has 6 in top 20 titles in usa versus over 15 in top 20 in japan, usa should be 3x jp performance"

 

[guek]

hmmm...US pertinent news incoming?

 

[Roo]

Only has 6 in top 20 titles in usa versus over 15 in top 20 in japan, usa should be 3x jp performance

 

[NateDrake]

Wait I thought Theatrhythm was announced for NA? It's not on the pdf.

It is releasing in July and then Kingdom Hearts in August. Was announced earlier this month by Square Enix.

Seems like the right portion given what's out here and out there.

 

[BY2K]

The 3DS should do 3 times better in the US than it does in Japan?

Seriously?

 

[AceBandage]

GAF.

 

[Revven]

Luigi's Mansion 2 for 2012 in Europe and the States but Paper Mario and Animal Crossing TBD.

Ugh, seriously? Still gotta wait for the AC and Paper Mario release dates?

Maybe they'll be Fall... titles...

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Not necessary. They all think brawl is ass.

You're friends with some good people, Anthony

 

[Game-Biz]

Only has 6 in top 20 titles in usa versus over 15 in top 20 in japan, usa should be 3x jp performance

Reggie firing eminent.

 

[BGBW]

What else is there to use?

I wonder if his desktop is as cool as mine.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

hmmm...US pertinent news incoming?

yeah like "we have to employ new strategies in america to increase penetration" or something boring like that because it's an investor meeting not a press conference

 

[Shadowlink]

Views super smach bros 2 as key to usa and will have long term demand

.

 

[zroid]

Only has 6 in top 20 titles in usa versus over 15 in top 20 in japan, usa should be 3x jp performance

Wow USA, you guys are the worst

 

[sprsk]

The 3DS should do 3 times better in the US than it does in Japan?

Seriously?

Games are more popular and there are more people in America.

 

[Javier]

3DS doing better in Japan than overseas? Considering they have more games, is this a surprise?

 

[MatthewB92]

Think he means NSMB2.

 

[GameplayWhore]

"super smach bros 2"? Interesting there, gibbo.

I think he meant New Super Mario Bros 2, not Super Smash Bros.

 

[AceBandage]

Smash Bros 2?
Eh??

 

[Ezduo]

Six out of twenty is bad? And they expect three times that?

 

[Wiz]

Views super smach bros 2 as key to usa and will have long term demand

DAMN RIGHT IT WILL

Edit: Meant NSMB2?

 

[schuelma]

Typo there I assume

 

[Discomurf]

super smach bros

 

[grimshawish]

The 3DS should do 3 times better in the US than it does in Japan?

Seriously?

He likely isn't talking about just chart positions but overall sales.

 

[guek]

yeah like "we have to employ new strategies in america to increase penetration" or something boring like that because it's an investor meeting not a press conference

Yes I know.

 

[Oddduck]

Whether people like it or not, Japan gamers and American gamers have different tastes in games.

If Nintendo wants more 3DS games in the top 20 in the U.S., they need more games that appeal specifically to western tastes. Releasing just any random games is not good enough.

 

[EloquentM]

I think he mean NSMB 2

 

[ViewtifulJC]

He probably meant NSMB2

 

[lordfroakie]

Wow USA, you guys are the worst

Blame NOA!

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

Damn, even though Paper Mario & Animal Crossing are 2012 for Japan, they are still TBA for America. I hope they come out this year... and why isn't Teatrhythm listed on America 2012? I hope that's just a typo (Even so, SE already announced it so eh.)

 

[Smiles and Cries]

can you guys stop posting fake shit so others can follow this?

 

[Medalion]

The 3DS should do 3 times better in the US than it does in Japan?

Seriously?

Well you should know what to do NIntendo...give more games gamers want!!! Nahhhhh

 

[nckillthegrimace]

The 3DS should do 3 times better in the US than it does in Japan?

Seriously?

Probably basing that on population size.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

posting fake shit is really annoying, and bad for my heart.

 

[Bullza2o]

Likely being saved for E3.

It is releasing in July and then Kingdom Hearts in August. Was announced earlier this month by Square Enix.

Yeah it was announced. Maybe they forgot to put it in the release schedule.

 

[Sandfox]

Nintendo seeing Smash Bros as the key to the US kinda makes me thing we will be getting the 3DS version sooner than we think

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Games are more popular and there are more people in America.

but i thought japan was the land of my otaku dreams where i could play fainaru fantashii in the streets and be lauded with noble praise

 

[Father_Brain]

THEN BRING MORE GAMES OVER

In fairness, their hands are a bit tied in that respect - they can't do much to make Western support better, and most of the third party titles that have done well in Japan in recent months either aren't suited to Western audiences or will take at least a few months of localization time. I wonder if LM2 and PM have already been completed and are being stupidly held back in the West, though.

 

[botty]

I wonder if his desktop is as cool as mine.

Perfection!

> Smash will be rushed... maybe.

This is Nintendo's ongoing problem.

 

[GameplayWhore]

Wow, 3ds terrible in EU (in terms of software placing in top 20).
