So good. This feels way older than 2001! E3 sure has grown. Did they have booth babes in 2001? :3


oh my god the smash bros reveal, so awesome.


MY BODY IS READY FOR E3 2011 NINTENDO, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.
 
Man revisiting their button layout for the GCN, I still think it's the best layout for every genre except fighters. Such a shame to have it go.

In the wrong direction.

Motion controlling is bad news.

Look what its done to xbox :'(
Blame Microsoft not Nintendo. Nintendo didn't force them to add motion controls, they decided that they needed them.
 
Funny to hear Iwata saying how's there's not much more developers can do to improve graphics, how there are too many sequels, and how exclusives are dead.

I also like how when Pikmin is unveiled someone goes, "Weird." And Miyamoto's got the same sense of humor. Giant Pellet with the number 5: "I wonder how many Pikmin this takes to carry."

We need more Pikmin. :(
 
I really think Ninty is going to show the technical prowess of this new machine with Waverace, F-Zero, Starfox, Pikmin! and Mario. Hopefully with a look at Retro stuff.

It will be nice to see some of Nintendos technical franchises get greenlit for the new machine.

They really do have a huge warchest to dip into and say, which of these do we want to start the HD generation with? Some IPs over a decade without gracing a console!

Well certainly the worst console in recent years

Bullshit.

The GC was better then the N64 (I'm sorry, but Zelda and Mario aren't enough to make the N64 better) and was much better then the Xbox.
 
The first E3 press conference I went to was in 2003, and even then, the shows were slick, big production events. Amazing how much things changed from 2001 to 2003.

I loved the GameCube. Still looks better than the new consoles

That little machine was awesome (I no longer have mine since the Wii is BC, but I've got more games for GC then I do my 360, PS3 or PS2, only PS1 comes close).

Let's see, it only came out in 2006 so you're basically giving everyone the entire lifetime of the console:

Zelda TP
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy 2
New Super Mario Bros
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Metroid Prime Trilogy compilation
Super Smash Bros Brawl
Metroid: Other M
GoldenEye 007
Definitive version of Resident Evil 4
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Sin and Punishment 2
Kirbys Epic Yarn
Tatsunoku vs Capcom
No More Heroes 1
No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
Mad World
Sonic Colours
Red Steel 2
Geometry Wars Galaxies
Excite Truck
ExciteBots
Wario Land: Shake It
Zack and Wiki
Rabbids Go Home
Endless Ocean
Wario Ware: Smooth Moves
Murumasa: The Demon Blade
Bit.Trip games before other services
Mario Kart Wii
Monster Hunter Tri

That's just the stuff that came out only on Wii (or came out on Wii first). Its just as good as the Gamecube, better IMO, in terms of first party output -- what its missing is the best of the HD twins - the likes of the Batman Arkham series, Assassins Creed, the new Tomb Raider, the best version of CoD etc. Cafe will soon fix that, and the Wii has given us plenty.


Someone is optimistic
