Impossible Scenario Question Time - Choose Wisely
-------------
Ok, guys, would you rather:
A - see the Nintendo E3 press conference 3 days early (Sunday before conference) - BUT you may not view or post on GAF for the entire week
B - see the conference the same time as every one else, just like the other years
C - E3 sensory deprivation until Friday night (including GAF, etc.) - BUT you can play two of the Wii U games firsthand
Oh man, that hurts. Poor Ancel.I wouldn't mind seeing that happen this time around. It would feel right, especially as the usual pre-E3 leaks begin to show-up, fueling.. new hype.
Also.. the 3rd of May in 2006 was when Ubisoft issued a press release confirming a certain title for Launch Day for the Wii.
Guys, i thought I was excited before. I dont post as often as you guys, but i always have a tab on this thread, either at work or at home.
I understand giddy hype. A week before DE:HR, i became obsessed. Knowing that game was coming so close ruined games for me until release. But i had yet to feel that way for the Wii U. Its a nintendo console, its a no brainer i will own it, unlike DE:HR of which was a mystical unknown property to me. I barely knew anything about the series even at that point.
But ideamans post that there is something major that nintendo has kept secret even from major partners, got me to the next level. It gave me that mystery element i needed to go super saiyan. Thoughts and dreams are running rampant through my head. The idea of a major bomb, like android on my screen in game with all the features that brings, has got me crazy excited even if it doesnt pan out. The kind of excitement that usually only comes the weekend before E3, or Christmas eve when i was younger.
C. I can wait on knowing the announcements if it means I can get my hands on the products early.-------------

I'll keep trying to bring 'em.. but in 2006, Nintendo had their historic conference/blowout on the 9th of May, so our time for comparison is running out.
In one week, it will have been six years since The Conference That Changed Everything ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3T79ruFPtjg ). Incredible.
Oh right, whose creating the new thread
(I volunteer not to)
Watch it be analog triggers.
Don't let yourself get that hyped, man. It's fun, but ultimately it's not worth it.

Stop linking to the conferences, for Christ's sake.
Sorry. Trying to be helpful, but I guess it ends-up being frustrating. :/Stop linking to the conferences, for Christ's sake.

I think we tried to nominate GPW, but he didn't want to, and then a lot of folks liked the idea of Rösti doing the honors.
(edit: and beaten.. poop.)
We drafted Rösti for that. Somebody spread the word.
I would also not complain if AniHawk were handed the keys.
It's too early for the Annual Re-Watch of the Conferences!
Me too!Watch it be analog triggers.
I'd be excite for those.
I was the same last year. As hyped as I was about what might have been coming, I set my expectations as close to zero as I could as the conference kicked off.Just need to allow yourself to get hyped for the possibilities, rather than the expectations. I was shaking with excitement last year, but ultimately wasn't too let down that only two games were revealed at the conference. Keep things in check and you'll be fine.
lol, I still can't believe you guys do this.
Am I reading the rumours correctly that Nintendo is working with Google on the OS layer for Wii U? Obviously wouldn't be based on Android, so why does Nintendo need Google?
IdeaMan was talking about using more than one tablet at a time. He had hinted at it before, saying that devs were testing it out. They obviously couldn't test it out if it were impossible. I think he must have found out recently that the dev he gets his info from is going to go ahead with it.
Exactly.
Half the fun of LOST was the discussion afterward.
Half the fun of E3 is experiencing the blowups, anger, and meltdowns firsthand. The news are about games i wont be able to play for months. People freaking out, posting awesome gifs, seeing new memes be born, that stuff is enjoyed in the moment.
It does sound pretty ridiculous. I did it last year for the first time and it turned out to be an unexpected source of hype. Who knows if it won't just be boring this year tho.

He did?
hmmm... I missed that one
This would make me consider buying a WiiU.
Multiple Tablets + user accounts + integrated online OS/services
If these three are true I might bite day one.
The text is too dark and oddly placed, it blends too much into the background, it's barely readablePosting my gif now, I'll post it in the new thread as well. I'm a couple days late, but oh well (;

I'll consider it.I approve of this call to Ubicide.
Also, you are now expected to produce one amazing animated picture in every thread you post in.
edit: ITT, we learn which posters do not have 20/20 vision
lol, I still can't believe you guys do this.
Thanks -_-
First time making a gif, and I spent an hour on it because I don't know how to make a gif. So...whatever.
The problem isn't the gif, that is fine. The text in some parts of the scene blend into the dark background of the floor which makes it hard to read, some other parts are ok.Thanks -_-

Also, I don't see how thats barely readable.
I'll consider it.
I have better than 20/20 so...I don't see how its barely readable.
What software did you use? I am curious about this, because my images have so far been entirely static.
Also I want to be like the Mama Robotnik of a couple years ago when I grow up., pissing off the 56K and DSL folk by posting twenty megabyte gifs that get quoted ten times per page and never getting banned for it
Haha, to capture the clip I used PotPlayer and then an hour in photoshop editing the 970 frames -_-
There's probably a better way to do it.

Did you set it up initially as a 970-layer single photoshop image? Lining up the text might have been easier that way. If you computer didn't explode from the probable insanity of what I just said.
Yeah, timeline went like this:
IdeaMan: What I'm hearing about the software layer is unknown but impressive.
Matt: The OS will be amazing. I can't say why.
Half of WUST: Who's that? I believe him already!
The Other Half: Just some Google employee. Oh, wait!
IdeaMan: Huh, looks like this guy confirmed stuff I've heard. Obviously, this proves that I had secret information all along, amirite guys?
BlackNMild2k1: By the way, a couple years ago I made an awesome post showing how Nintendo has been pretty openly designing an operating system. Their head programmer now works for Google, and the project is currently copyrighted by both Nintendo and Google.
Some Random Person: Ugh, why is there ever any news in this stupid thread?!?!?

Are you going to be the one to start the next thread? You have my vote
Text is to dark and doesn't flow in usual gif fashion.
I would use white text, make it bigger, and make it pop more, rather than staying there for too long. Make it flow more like conversation.
Also, too many frames.
I feel part of a gifs charm and effectiveness is low frame rate.
I likely won't be awake (or I'll be in the middle of my work commute) when it starts, but I'm thinking about doing the one after that. I like having prep time, like Batman.
Edit: Oh, no, I'm already starting to think of epic things, and silly things, and epicly silly things.
I'd love to see a thread done by you. Do these epic things!
