...Wasn't there only one E3 where the 3DS was there?

Don't forget the abysmal year with... *shutters*... WiiMusic...

I'd also like to point out that this is still a rumor. I mean, look at the name of the source. And if it was confirmed, Kotaku, Joystiq, IGN would be jumping all over this.

So its finally time for the next gen console to start coming in....Though I don't expect for Sony/Microsoft to put anything out anytime soon (like few years soon)

Nintendo is known for their immense level of innovation so Im quite interested to see what new innovation this console will bring to gaming that Sony/Microsoft will soon try to copy.

EDIT - I think the source is a fake....The twitter they linked to doesn't even exist

Ahh, then it might be true then.
I remember the 3DS having this thing too.

Man I seriously wish I could go to E3 now.

Nintendo always owns at the E3.

Remember E3 08?

 

[Fluto]

[PolloDiablo]

I cant remember what year it was exactly but Nintendo did absolutely horrible and showed off no worthy first party titles and boasted a crap ton of numbers at a crowd who didn't give a damn. I think how bad Nintendo did made Sony's press conference really good that year.

 

[EnigmaXtreme]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Tonitonichopchop]

And so, the era of free Nintendo games shall finally be ended...

But that's okay. I'm actually looking forward to whatever Nintendo has in store. I'm getting a job soon so hopefully I can afford the new crop of games.

 

[heartgold]

6 weeks to go to find out what this baby's surprise features

 

[dgwillia]

Hope this ends up like last years E3, Microsoft did decent until Kinect showed up and make everyone laugh thier butts off, Sony was basically showing TV Commercials for all thier games, and Nintendo completely blew everyones pants off.

This should be the year of the 3DS ;o, im tired of people asking "Omg, why'd you buy a 3DS"

Next March is enough, my birthday is in March!

I AM HAPPY!
