Their job is too space out the games.  Why not an F-zero, Kid Icarus, Star Fox, Pikmin game. They have a ton of teams where are the real games. There are NONE of those coming this christmas (as far as we know now). I know Mario, Zelda are coming out later, thats a given, Nintendo should have something in the mean time.  I knew the downtime was coming but I never expected them to abandon everything but Wii Crap games.

Jesus man, again those are big games that take years to make. Look Zelda took 3-4 years to make EAD released Galaxy in November, so 7 months ago. Who made F-Zero last time? That's right, Sega. Who made Starfox last time? That's right Namco. Nintendo despite being flushed with cash aren't some magical game making machine that can click its' ruby slippers and magically make these games appear. Based on Iwata interviews of the past their Wii strategy was clear: to drive momentum in the beggining and you can understand that given how big a risk this system is and was. This is the downtime baby, so embrace the 3rd parties

If Pikmin 3 were announced next AC I would pfffft at Pikmin 3 Edgecrusher. Sorry.

Huh?

Again, AC is a great game to have. But to treat it as a hardcore highlight? Just no.

And yet Pikmin 3 is suppossed to satisfy me? Just no from me man, I'd rather pick up the GC sequel for pennies.

Still last year they showed GAMES. It doesn't matter if it was games previously annouced, they had new footage, new info on huge games, on third party games on more. They had none of that this year.

Punk , yes this is about E3, why should I talk about anything else when this is the event that is happening. Can stuff happen later, sure, but this is talk about the now not the unknown.  Nintendo's conference sucked, the end.

It did suck hard. Again I agree with both you and punk. One thing that we are forgetting about is the now fractured nature of E3, with people all having their own separate conferences, developers even leaving the ESA and not showing games. Some choosing to show at Leipzig or TGS or GDC.

I think Matt C said that we would have to wait a little longer for Kid Icarus too. But you seem to have at the moment, this almost angry view that is THE END for the Wii and THE END for nintendo, when you know that follow ups to all the games in their major franchises will inevitably come. It's not like a definitive stamp from them that from this point forward to the end of all time they are making nothing but casual games. Because that is the vibe I'm getting off you guys.

It also kind of completely ignores any other game that isn't made by nintendo, it kind of belittles any contribution that any 3rd party can make.

Did I ever say the Wii was doomed, I am saying the conference sucked and Nintendo lineup for now is terrible. Thats it. Who said the Wii is doomed? The wii is going to sell more than ever.  Wii Sports 2 and Wii Music is a printing money machine.

And every company manages to get a bunch of games out every year, I dont see why Nintendo deserves a pass.

Well you clearly said: " I never expected them to abandon everything but Wii Crap games."

So again the vibe you're giving off is that nintendo is now condemned to making nothing but casual from here on out. I don't give nintendo a free pass, I think this conference was shit, but through my wider reading and past experience, I know for a fact that there are plently of games I'm interested in getting between now and the next E3 and to me it doesn't matter if it has a red logo on the box.

No one ever said the Wii was doomed, and if you can't take a little criticism, then I'm glad you left GS.

Goog god GG its called exaggeration, I use it.

You use it poorly. This is why Skylock is needed.

You could say that about AC too.

Touche. Bitch

I love it, we're having our first Insert Coin tussle. Bring it bitches, my cold hard logic will break your soft warm womanly breasts.

I am pissed at Nintendo though and I think many of you are making poor excuses.

Sony people, enough Nintendo.

I'd love to talk sony, but tretton is giving the good old marketing speech.

Well Resistance looks really good...too bad this live event is now lagging so bad I can't make anything out.

Ted Price is awesome.
