Seriously. It's a great Zelda game just sitting in his collection gathering dust. It's scandalous.

Zelda game, lol that's funny.

Heh, Nintendo news. *shrugs* I can wait.

Thinking of doing a writeup of my experiences with my previous job. Would you guys be interested in hearing about them?

What Nintendo should have done is made Skyward Sword a Wii U launch game where the graphic style would have really thrived much more clearly AND given the system an early classic, instead of relying on Zombi U and a shitload of ports.

But........... Skyward sword would have been a port.

Yeah a 1st party port of a game you would have no choice but to grab the system for, unlike all the old PS360 ports it got.

So Nintendo rents out a giant E3 space and now they fill it ONLY with Zelda. Something went horribly wrong. This is beyond bad, I can't imagine how the stock will drop. It's stupid not to showcase NX, uncertainty fuels panic, show the product and even if we have to wait a bit longer at least people know they can have confidence. Unless it sucks then it's a year of people laughing at it.

Nintendo is still a game company, they should be releasing games and this years lineup is the worst in the history of Nintendo. Some fake paper Mario game is the only thing coming for Wii u. Obviously all production went to NX which won't be out for a year. Wtf are you doing.

The mobile thing is the only area that can save them this year. FE and animal crossing are great choices.

I'm wondering if they got scared by the PS4NEO and Xbox 1.5 stuff. IDK, either way a few extra months isn't enough time to change the console. A march release makes no sense to me.....seriously you couldn't get it out this holiday with Zelda that has been in development for 5 years and a bnch of 3rd-party games since oh geez its so easy to develop for? Bizarre.

Nintendo seems so unreliable these days. And its times like this where the total lack of 3rd-party support is actually also highlighting the total lack of 2nd-party support as well. Remember when Nintendo used to brag about all the great partners they had? Yeah well, you could use some right now. Because your system looks like shit without them.

Even most of Nintendo's 1st party stuff just hasn't been the OMG groundbreaking stuff that it used to. They are going to have to turn things COMPLETELY around on NX if they plan on staying relevent.

Just found out that I got fired from my job.

That sucks...but it sounds like you needed a new job anyway. Now is your chance.

Read the news about the NX releasing in march 2017.  Nintendo better have some surprise software up their sleeves to tide us over.  I'm not keeping my hopes up.  This drought is as bad as the one at the end of the Wii's lifespan.

I hope we'll at least get to see some software for NX at the E3 conference.  It doesn't have to be playable.  That way Nintendo can at least show us something without having to show their hardware and all the gimmicks/innovations that it will no doubt include.

As for the gif Robio posted, without being humourous, that's exactly what I've been thinking for a while now, I finally have some time to play al those games I bought but never got around to playing.

Regarding that story about Reggie becoming an "executive officer", I hope that means he has LESS power and not more. Guy is a douche. Thought he was cool in the Gamecube days but he has ruined NOA bigtime since 2006.

Regarding the PSN sales.....teh PS2 remasters FTW! Seriously, that's my favorite thing about the PS4 is Sony remastering those PS2 era games with cleaner visuals, PS4 controls and trophy support. They need to step it up though....nowhere near enough of them. The prices are also a bit much at $15.

I guess Kaz Hirai knows his shit.

First Chapter of my Work Experience writeup is up.
