Got to love the HD generation...
I'm ready to be fucking BLOWN AWAY! BLOW ME AWAY IWATA!
Cafe is too far away, I don't care much for what they'll show rly (which could end up being way too little or completely fictional like that pre-TP Zelda trailer). Of course I do want to see what the fuck kind of controller they're going for. I just hope they announce Xenoblade, The Last Story, Pandora's Tower, and a couple more for Wii to get people to shut up about the localisations (and to ensure their appearance here too)
Would be nice to see Dragon Quest X but no way in hell will they show that in an American show before Japan.
TGS can't come soon enough!
Also, they need to have some serious shit to show for 3DS to compete with Sony. Granted, E3 doesn't count for much in the grand scheme of things but they can at least avoid months long trolling from the enthusiast press over it if they get a good show too. Games will be trickling in anyway though. Probably. They'll at least be showing RE: Revelations again I suppose, but that seems too early so it won't have cool finalised cut scenes and QTES (that for some reason people love so much) to be enough.
The optimist proclaims we live in the best of all possible worlds
while the pessimist fears this is true.

Iwata will blow the fuck outta you.
its 12...why isnt the show up on nintendo.com?
So, what's the price and the release date for Wii U?

I tuned in just now, saw the RE Revelations trailer and Dragons dogma, looks good.
Why isn't Dragons Dogma just called Monster Hunter 4?

RE!!! Cool trailer, mostly story based. Who are these characters, meh.
Wii U is really going to use a USB card? That was the key to making the Wii as hackable as it was. Can't believe they're going that route again. Guess that means they won't use conventional DVDs.
WTF?
What?
