Now we're doing a Q&A session. That means probably no big announcements coming, but maybe some good questions will get asked.​

It's officlal (at least for me) Worst E3 week ever for me.​

Nintendo Land seems to be the breakout IP of the conference from the amount of push it's getting.

Watch Dogs, eat your heart out.

There is still ONE last conference.

And the reason why I use caps is because I think it'll be as bad.

Someone is going to rule 34 Miiverse and there is nothing Nintendo can do to stop it.

Someone asks if Nintendo feels that the Wii U audience is the same group as the audience for the original Wii.

They are targeting a wide audience with the Wii U, "but I want to make the important addition that we are powering up with the Wii U."

"There's sort of this attitude that Nintendo is targeting more casual consumers, but actually we're more interested in making games for people who really love games."

They also want to make an environment where third-party developers are excited to create games for the platform.

Hmm...interesting.

You mean non-specific action figure as guard isn't going be enough?
*insert username has been kick out.
Reason - Non-specific action figure disapproves.

Essentially seems to be saying that Nintendo is happy with the experiences that the GamePad affords, even if the overall Wii U specs might not be as powerful as other hardware.

God. I have a bad feeling about this.

It's confirmed that you'll be able to transfer all your Wii stuff to the Wii U.

good to know.

@soulx that's a relief

They're reminding to attend the 3DS event tomorrow night to hear more about New Super Mario Bros. 2 and other 3DS titles.

I think the presentation will just be showing game demos of those already announced. Still, I'll watch it. Hope not 90 minutes? I guess they are freaked out by yesterday's Wii U presentation

It's done.
No megaton announcement. :/

I know there one left. And my opinion WILL still stand after this one. It's not one conference that will make this year's E3 worthwhile.

I for one found Nintendoland to look rather fun. Kinda like Mario Party. Without the friendship-ruining.

 

[Bladexdsl]

nintendo you failed no wiiu for me maybe later next year i'll get one.

 

[Hadrian]

At least Nintendo Land seems better than Wii Play.

True but that's like saying a digestive biscuit is tastier than a lump of shit. They should have saved Nintendoland for the E3 floor and showed Wario & Project P-100 instead.

And I thought e3 2008 was Nintendo's worst. At least then, we got Animal Crossing: City Folk.

Congrats Ninty, worst E3 ever! You beat your own record!

At least they still had some decent titles in the show like Pikmin 3, ZombiU and Scibblenauts.
