Maybe he'll be the new bad guy. He looks pretty evil to me.

Looks like the heroest of heroes if you ask me.
Not to be a dick, but I'm surprised people are excited for this. I know, graphics aren't everything, but Nintendo seems like it's playing catch-up in every other way too. It's ridiculous that Nintendo STILL doesn't have a competent online service, and I'm sure its too late to integrate with Nintendo 3DS. The launch doesn't seem that interesting. And I'm sure 3rd party support will drop in a year. I don't intend to buy it if is $300 or above, but I'll consider it if it's less AND if they manage to convince me it's worth investing in early tomorrow.
I probably am being a dick now. -_-
Except sales.

With regard to sales, I'm curious what impact the cumulative installed base will really have on the upcoming generational transition, considering most of that was built up early in the generation.
Momentum and mindshare coming from the Wii's success doesn't feel particularly strong, considering they essentially left it to flounder for years.
One has to wonder what in-roads Microsoft and Kinect have made, particularly in the US market.
Of course, it may have absolutely no bearing.

I agree, but that was arguably a different market than the one that brought the Wii's success.Momentum and mindshare from the GC to the Wii was arguably the most abysmal in the history of the industry. Casual consumers are going to hop in most likely without regard to previous generations.
Nintendo doesn't need Resident Evil 6 or Borderlands 2. They need respect.
But Nintendo is pretty respected in the industry
All 7 of them
True that. lol
I should have edited my post: the launch doesn't seem very interesting, except Pikmin 3 and Rayman Legends, in my opinion.
Not the way some developers talk about them
Wait....Rayman Legends is not this holiday?

I love how people told us to keep our hype in check. Suck it, pessimists!
I'm not drunk enough for this yet!
Six hours of Vodka ahoy!
I'll love this conference if it takes alcohol poisoning to do so.
