3. had a 3d 1080p hdtv for 500 usd

1. Not for Vita (or PS3), but it is better than what Microsoft has coming (for us). 2. Yeah, the Vita is great tech. Needs games. 3. Still need glasses to operate, so it's kinda useless other than for personal use (and if you don't mind lower brightness and color degradation).

[QUOTE="OhSnapitz"][QUOTE="darkspineslayer"] Hatred originating from disreputible gentlemen is going to continualy persist XD

Nintendo had the best showing of what mattered. games. Both had a heaping helping of tech, but Sony had more.

Willy105

What Games? :| Did i miss something..?

Yeah, you did. Tekken, Kirby DS, Kirby Wii, Rhythm Heaven, Luigi's Mansion 2, Kid Icarus, Rolling Western, Mario Kart 3D, Mario 3DS, Mario Party 9, Skyward Sword, and more

Whats this more. All I saw from the conference was 3ds and wiiu. Since we judged who won by conference they didint show much for wii owners.

[QUOTE="dreman999"][QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"]Yeah, nintendo really threw wii owners under a bus at their conference. Willy105

I beg to differ. The Wii U is for us.The Wii for casuals. The hardcore can just buy a U. The casual can just play with their Wii.

The U is more for single player, Wii is for multiplayer. It's not really to distinguish core vs casuals.

With a Ghost Recon online game already being developed as well as many others, Wii-U is for the bigger companies/high-budget ones. Its gonna be way better at multiplayer.

It'll eventually replace the Wii, but Nintendo is playing it like Sony did with PS2 and PS3.

U can play Wii games and is backward compatible. U has an advantage of better single player than the Wii, but the U has all of Wii's capabilities for multiplayer and way more.

[QUOTE="MFDOOM1983"][QUOTE="finalfantasy94"]

really? Ok when does wiiU come out next yaer right meaning noone can play it. As of now wii is nintendos main home console. The only support they gave it during the conference was zelda. Thats it 1 game. The showed offed the wiiu and basicly said sorry wii owners no more support guess you gatta wait till wiiu. I mean they even had kirby and refused to highlight it in the conference which is what we are grading here. Trust me if sony did something like that with the ps3 I would be annoyedtoo.

Good to know after years of Wii defense and arguments of how it wasn't worthless when compared to 360 and PS3, the second a new Ninty console is announced (not released, not even any games shown for it) we can dismiss the Wii as casual??? Wtf, honestly....

I like how all of a sudden, more than three posters now care about the Wii :? They showed plenty, and definatly more than Microsoft. but at least now I know how much better TV is when I am the controller, right?

How many of us gave up on the Wii as a primary system long ago? Yeah, many more of us would have rather seen 3DS titles.

I wish Capcom showed us more of Re: Revelations I want to find out if I need to get a 3DS for it or if it's a pass for me. Currently with the jello blobs of enemies, and skintight wetsuits for Jill it's a pass. But I still want to see more to make a final decision.

I understand your position, but personally I think this is the best chance we have at a classic-ish Resident Evil game. Maybe the last one.

it's probably one of the most fun trade shows of the year. It's wall-to-wall video games. Stick around if you must, but once you see the Wii U, you may as well head home because that's the best as it gets here this year.

If it delivers on being a better game than RE4-5 then I'll support it with my purchase and pray Capcom spots that they don't need to inject action into every sequence of the game to make people buy it. It is also why I hope RE:ORC does mediocre in sales, Capcom doesn't need more encouragement in wrecking the series.

1. Not for Vita (or PS3), but it is better than what Microsoft has coming (for us). 2. Yeah, the Vita is great tech. Needs games. 3. Still need glasses to operate, so it's kinda useless other than for personal use (and if you don't mind lower brightness and color degradation).

Well who else was there with games not nintendo their show was all about a tablet controller on a system that won't be out till 2012. The wii u show was so sloppy it could have been a wii controller and many people thought it was. The demo's for the wii u were pc and 360/ps3 games lmao. The one zelda demo looked like a ps3/360 game and the bird was meh also. The wii had one zelda game and a couple 3ds games.

So how did nintendo win the e3 again ??

No, they won by showing a new system that holds alot of promise and a bunch of awesome 3ds games.

Even if they were vague about it, it was still better than Sony's and MS's showing

No one is talking about MS winning and you know it. 3DS was fine, Wii was abandoned, WiiU has no games apart from 360/PS3 games. So I don't get the excitement. That's all.

Alot of people dismissed the wii as dead looong before E3, don't try to deny that

You can't really blame nintendo for not focusing on a system that doesn't really have any growth left in it

[QUOTE="locopatho"][QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]No, they won by showing a new system that holds alot of promise and a bunch of awesome 3ds games.

Even if they were vague about it, it's still better than the kinect crap that MS was shoving down our throats.

So its a case of diminished expectations? We expected little, they gave us little, so they won? Sony are still supporting their console (that released the same time as Wii) with tons of 1st party exclusives and tons more 3rd party support. The exact same 3rd party support that WiiU is supposed to have won with. See my confusion? Sony didn't show a next gen console, but they clearly don't need to. That's a good thing, I'll be getting great games for years to come on my current Sony console. Basically, I think Vita and 3DS are both great, but Wii is almost dead and WiiU isn't yet alive, while PS3 is kicking ass still. That's why I think Sony won. I don't think it's fair to have someone win on "potential" or "promise".

It's simply how it goes, A new system unveiling, regardless of how vague, usually generates more attention. Besides, you yourself said that the wii could never deliver that true "next gen" experience, (or something around those lines). With the wii u you could finally get those HD Zelda and metroids you've been dreaming of

Sounds like styIe over substance to me, which isn't very nice, but ok! I'll judge those Ninty's next gen games when I see them, after getting too hyped about the Wii and ending up disappointed Imma gonna be more cynical this time round and get hyped when they on the shop shelves and I can play them :P

[QUOTE="locopatho"][QUOTE="darkspineslayer"] The point is that the games are coming, not that they showed it running on hardware that, assuming by the lack of focus on the console itself, is not finalisedShinobishyguy

So they won by showing the same games that 360 and PS3 have been getting for 5-6 years? Even though everyone tried to use that as a positive and say Nintendo had their own identity or whatever? But now they finally catch up and they "win"?

No, they won by showing a new system that holds alot of promise and a bunch of awesome 3ds games.

Even if they were vague about it, it was still better than Sony's and MS's showing

Word like I said before to win E3 all you need to do is show something shiny and poorly explain it and bam you won. Lasty dont support the current system you have out even though the new system doesint come till next year.

[QUOTE="Willy105"] Tekken, Ghost Recon Online, Metro: Last Light, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge, Aliens: Colonial Marines, new DiRT, new Assassin's Creed, Batman Arkham City, Darksiders 2, Smash Bros. 3DS + WiiU, Pikmin 3, and a bunch of tech demos.darkspineslayer

I guess you didn't get the memo :|

So again... what exactly did they show. :|

The point is that the games are coming, not that they showed it running on hardware that, assuming by the lack of focus on the console itself, is not finalised

Translation: They didn't show anything and they "won".. :?

That's like Sony only showing Vita software (while completely ignoring the PS3) and the cows jump up and down claiming that they won.. :|

The bottom line is Nintendo showed absolutely Nothing beyond 3DS software (most of which we already knew about) and a few (backstage) Wii-U titles that looked no different than Wii software (save for the Zelda demo). I sorry but if I were a wii gamer, I would feel like Nintendo just *****d in my face a laughed.

Yeah, I agree that they won, but mostly because everyone else sucked pretty bad this year.

Nintendo won. Sony was just too boring and while they did do good showing the $249 price point for the PSV, the games were lacking (except Uncharted which was GORGEOUS!!!). Wii U won it alone. I could see developers and Nintendo's 1st party being VERY creative with this. One thing everyone has to remember is that Nintendo has always lead with innovation. It's a mistake to doubt Nintendo. 9 times out of ten they'll prove you wrong.

Sony won because they actually showed off their new system. Nintendo had no specs, no price points, no exclusive games, and we didn't even see the actual console. Sony, on the otherhand, showed off a bunch of new games, an amazing pricepoint making the Vita a better purchase than the 3ds, and had quite a few ps3 exclusives shown.
