Nintendo must have put the fear of god into these developers and publishers. It's crazy that we haven't had any significant leaks yet about what is going to be shown. It's either that or there is nothing to to show which would be horrifying.

In a way, it's sad for us right now, but I have to say.. I'm quite impressed.

Nintendo strongarming third parties.. just like the old days! Haha!

 

[Redford]

Maybe we all should try something similar if/when MS/Sony reveal their new consoles. Like 'So this is like Kinect, an add-on, right ?' or if they show someone with a controller 'So I can only play games with Kinect ? WORST SYSTEM EVAAA!'.

Alright, maybe we shouldn't. We should be above that.

I dunno, that sounds pretty fun.

E3 bomb 1 - Nintendo buys Sega, announces that the DreamUWiiCast 2 is out already at stores, releases with Sonic Xtreme using mario galaxy physics.

How does that work

How does that work

It doesn't

How does that work

Tails tails its tails around a spheric race track.

I reckon MGR:R is coming to Wii U.

 

[Sadist]

I reckon MGR:R is coming to Wii U.

Seeing how Konami handles MG(S) games on Nintendo platforms, I doubt it.

 

[schuelma]

Yeah I have a suspicion LoS2 isn't coming. Not expecting anything from Konami.

 

[joshwaan]

Nothing will ever beat the SNES.
In my unbiased opinion.

I agree with you, The Snes is the best, but I think the Wii U will be up there with it one day IMO

Think of it like Snes best 2D console of all time, Wii U best 3D console of all time

Today we would like to present you the new PIKMIN!

abillitys: smells funny, eats all you candy and does jackshit.

ROFL fucking epic!

 

[Sadist]

Yeah I have a suspicion LoS2 isn't coming. Not expecting anything from Konami.

I'm just expecting PES 2013. Which would be cool, because the PES team did some cool stuff with the Wiimote. I'm expecting something awesome for the upad from them.

 

[Sadist]

Don't keep your expectations so low, I'm sure they're gonna bring over as much as possible. Except for Kojima's titles of course, which won't work because of <reasons>, including all titles using his new engine, which won't support Wii U because of <reasons>.

Sorry, but I'm going in with no expectations whatsoever. Especially Konami.

 

[monome]

Seeing how Konami handles MG(S) games on Nintendo platforms, I doubt it.

We will likely see a Paul Gale rumour on the fact that Revengeance is coming to WiiU due to the soon to be announced acquisition of the studio by Nintendo and Revengeance serving as a proof the engine can be ported to WiiU efficiently.

Wonder if Ninja Gaiden 3 would sell more than 500 copies if a WiiU version of Revengeance came to WiiU around the same time.

 

[joshwaan]

Sorry, but I'm going in with no expectations whatsoever. Especially Konami.

1 MILLION TROOPS! Rock n ROLLLL hehe

 

[Redford]

So are all the boards except this one closing for E3?

ROFL fucking epic!

One can hope

I just found out I will have the day off on the day of Nintendo's conference! I can't wait to watch it unfold live! I was bummed because I was expecting a busy day at work that day.

Also is gaf acting funny for anyone else? Thr site won't load on my laptop so I'm on mobile.

The site has been struggling to stay up for some time now. I hope it holds together next week. Wii've come so far and lost so many to not be together for the conference!

They usually manage to keep it up by shutting down the sub-forums and turning off avatars once E3 starts. It helps take some of the stress off the forums.

 

[watershed]

Queen's jubilee?

Is that a British holiday? No, I'm in Korea so it will be wednesday here during Nintendo's conference. I just found out that wednesday is Korea's memorial day so I don't have work.

Edit: Is Nintendo's conference on tuesday at 10am? If so it will be very early like 1am here so normally I'dbe asleep for work in the morning. But the day off means I can stay up late.

 

[MDX]

What if Nintendo has hired
Michael Buffer

to announce their titles?

 

[Bumhead]

Queen's jubilee?

The Queen is celebrating 60 years on the throne so we in the UK are having a long bank holiday weekend, with Monday and Tuesday off work.

Absolutely great timing. I'm going to be parked infront of the laptop all day watching E3.

EDIT: Sorry, thought you were asking what it was! Oops..

 

[Agent Ironside]

Or....Crazy Buttocks on a Train.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

Sometimes that's just not enough to satisfy me. Besides, as a full-blooded Nintendo fan, subtlety is what I am used to. Now I liked Prime 3, but I just thought the fairly straight forward "save the world from an alien threat" storytelling was largely unineresting despite the numerous action scenes. I would have liked to see meaningful character development between Samus and the bounty hunters and Dark Samus not be such a lame one-dimensional villain. I would have liked to have seen some insight into what Samus was thinking while dealing with some of the major plot points.

same here! plus I thought travelling around Skytown was a major chore!

 

[schuelma]

Has Nintendo lifted a 3rd party embargo in advance of E3? Both NBA2K and the new DC fighting game explicitly confirming Wii U versions in the last day or so.

They must be loosening things a bit. Injustice even features the Wii U logo on its website, which isn't the case for any other multiplatform game that's been announced for the system.

 

[DaSorcerer7]

Ubisoft should be due any minute now..

 

[Boss Doggie]

What DC fighting game?

 

[schuelma]

What DC fighting game?

This

 

[monome]

What DC fighting game?

Injustice.

Mortal Kombat with DC only characters, turned villains with armors.

What is this about a new dc fighting game?
Edit: Nevermind

I hope you guys are actually right about this NDA, and not just clung to it as a way to explain the dearth of 3rd party support.

Open the floodgates, Nintendo!

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Maybe the NDA has been lifted for games they aren't showcasing at their conference/booth. Even software in their sizzle reels could still have NDAs. So, maybe NBA 2k13 and Gods Among Us won't be at Nintendo's press conference?

Most likely though these developers have special NDA's for certain game announcements.....: or they are just breaking the regular ones. :lol

In other news, E3 Advertisements are going up. There is a thread on the gaming section...I wonder if Nintendo will put anything up this year?

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

If PG has no money, no publisher after Rising and shuts down, I'll blame Nintendo for not seing the potential of having a dedicated action-games team.

Oh GOD now I can't stop thinking about all the delicious possibilities!

It's like that "don't think about pink elephants" thing...

 

[schuelma]

The nods and winks regarding Black Ops 2 makes it clear to me there is/was some sort of NDA going on.

 

[schuelma]

Yeah. Tonight/tomorrow will be interesting with LoS2 being revealed. Still not convinced there is a Wii U version, but if there is, you would think Nintendo would let Konami announce the Wii U version immediately.

Haven't we had developers flat out saying they can't talk about a Wii U version. Even in the past week with the Darksiders 2 folks?

Ono from Capcom in Jan

I can&#8217;t tell you more about it because, if I do, Nintendo will send assassins to finish me!

THQ interview with Eurogamer just yesterday

E: With Darksiders 2 you will be on Wii U at launch. What do you expect from the console?

Danny Bilson: There's heavy use of the DRC (Digital Resistive Current) controller with Darksiders 2. I actually don't know how much we've said about that stuff yet, but rest assured it's got unique use of that controller for the game on the Wii U. It's not just a straight port. There's a separate team working really hard on it.

 

[Sadist]

Oh man guys E3 is coming

 

[Boss Doggie]

Man I found a nice Wolf avatar to use but I can't make it E3 relevant.

Injustice.

Mortal Kombat with DC only characters, turned villains with armors.

This

Looks interesting. Not a fan of MK vs DC though.

 

[Father_Brain]

The nods and winks regarding Black Ops 2 makes it clear to me there is/was some sort of NDA going on.

Sumo Digital came within a hair's breadth of confirming it in one of the interviews they gave for Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed.

But there seems to be no readily apparent pattern to the NDAs, that's fair to say.

I'm sure there were nods and winks, but then again we have seen other developers talking plenty about the Wii-U in the last weeks/months. So that assumption is spotty at best.

I guess we'll find out in a few days.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Agreed, should be interesting to see. But I'm pretty sure that there is a Wii-U version. I think even Alberto hinted at it.

As far as I know, the only developers talking about Wii U have been developers of games announced last year.

 

[schuelma]

Did he? I thought he said something the other way, i.e. don't be shocked if there isn't one. I could be way off though.

 

[Father_Brain]

I'm not getting my hopes up for LoS2 Wii U, since the main source for that seems to be Paul Gale and Konami just doesn't seem to be on board with the platform. I'd like to be wrong, though.

I thought the first rumor came from somewhere else.

And Paul Gale was totally wrong with the rest of his rumour(s).

I thought the first rumor came from somewhere else.

About Mirror of Fate? 4chan, CVdungeon forums and that Dutch website. LoS2 on Vita/WiiU? Paul Gale only as far as I'm aware. Original leaker on 4chan even said he knew nothing of that.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Didn't someone in the know on this forum say that Konami wanted Kojima to develop Project Ogre for the Wii U, but he shot it down? So, it does seem like Konami is on board for it.
