No new Pokemon would have a game-changer announcement. Pokemon always ends up being just another Pokemon game, several generations in. What could you possibly want to know about a game that you've likely already played several times over? Here's all you really need to know about Omega Ruby. Its a remake of Pokemon 3 (3rd Gen) with Pokemon 6 (6th Gen) engine. Theres not really alot of surprise to come out of "more info" The only thing people probably didn't see coming from Pokemon 2 update was the Pokewalker. So why would you waste your E3 wish on Pokemon at all?
Also, NO MORE SMASH BROTHER NEWCOMMER ANNOUNCEMENTS. While I ALWAYS get excited about new and great things like Rosalina, I feel like with all these constant updates, theres no surprises left in Smash Brothers. Back in 1999, and again in 2001 as a kid, I went absolutely bonkers when I got a "challenger approaching" not knowing what to expect. Come with Smash Brothers Brawl, the biggest hidden/unlockable characters were already announced/revealed. I knew before I even played Brawl, the kinds of characters I'd expect, and so Brawl never captivated me with delightful surprises like Smash Bros and Melee did beforehand. Alot of what I like about my personal Top 10 games list of all time has a large part to do with how they surprised me. But with everything important to me about Smash Brothers already revelead, I feel like it's not going to knock me off my ass with a twist like the series used to. I find it extremely disappointing in games when the only time my jaw is dropping is from the game trailer/announcements that came months prior to that game's release. I find it regretful that I wouldn't come across these surprises naturally as I played.
About Hyrule Warriors... Ugg... I mean, have you even played a Dynasty Warriors game? That game series is so droll. I can't imagine a Zelda skin to make it all that much better. I mean I also was excited after the trailer until I watched it again and thought it'd probably feel and play just like that series.
And if they announce Majora's Mask 3D, I won't be surprised, but the BETTER do more than just a port and a predictable Hero mode. Ocarina 3D gets a pass because Reverse Master Quest was able to throw off my muscle memory for about an hour to somehow feel like a newish game. If they can't atleast add Reverse Master Quest, then I'd expect an extra dungeon or DLC intergration to purchase further content.
And I'd be surprised if Nintendo released a new IP at this point. Nintendo uses rehashes to fund new projects, and with the bad publicity and losses they've been flirting with the past year, I don't expect them to announce anything other than another Super Mario Sellout or another iteration of a standard Nintendo Franchise, as there is a common link between expertly crafted Nintendo games and poor sales.
I guess I can sum up Nintendo E3 as "No surprises you didnt already see coming" Atleast thats what I'm expecting. I think the best possible thing that should happen that won't happen for Nintendo wouldn't be announced from Nintendo. Nintendo needs about 10 good 3DS announcements from 3rd parties and 20 good announcements from 3rd parties. That would be able to jump enough Nintendo Hype from E3 to extend well beyond TGS. While the 3DS is already responsible for two of m Top 10 games, I still feel like I've been cheated, and I can't imagine how Wii U owners feel.
