How is Sony and Nintendo going to Counter Microsoft?

What do you guys think they will do to surpass what Microsoft has announced? They will need something completely mindblowing to do so.

Nintendo has no chance IMO. Sony however....I have no idea what they will show...

Super Mario Galaxy 2 + New Zelda= Checkmate

more then 3 AAA exclusives coming this year is about all they need

Super Mario Galaxy 2 + New Zelda= Checkmate

Sony: Cheap attempt at motion controller. Nintendo: Indescribable awesomeness that will blow Xboxes casualness out of the water.Head_of_games

Yeah that was my first thought as well, Microsoft is new to the casuals, but for Nintendo its just like home, they will probably throw out some outstanding new add-on (Next to Wii Motion +).

Sony can't.....atleast i dont think they can, Microsoft scares the crap out of them, they still havn't gotten microsoft back for taking their former exclusives so far all sony has done this gen is follow microsofts lead......microsoft comes out with achievements......sony makes trophies. etc etc

Why? Mindblowing is not how I would describe Microsofts presentation. I think you are getting a little lost in the hype. Let us recap.

1. MGS spinoff

2. A few games we already knew about

3. Eye toy copy with supposed better tech

4. and finally a 12 year old virtual boy to tell all of your secrets to

does that seem about right?

Nintendo doesn't have to.

i guess we have to wait untill tommorow to find out

I think your just tricking yourself into thinking that they didn't announce much, they also showed there new exclusives, Announced Halo Reach for next year, Natal is bigger than some Eye Toy Knock-off, it could be the revolution for gaming for all we know. but for now we just need to wait for the other two to catch up.

All they need to do is show a new Zelda with Wii Motion +.

WiiMan21

zelda motion +

AWESOMENESS :O

nothing , nothing can compare, not even dancing koalas

Nintendo doesn't have to.

My thoughts exactly, Nintendo is basicaly not in the Sony Vs Microsoft war.......Nintendo is not after neither of them, but Microsoft is after sony 0___0

All Nintendo has to do is show me footage for a new Zelda, and it'll spark my interest. As for Sony, I have no idea.

X360 will beaten i have that feeling

I think you guys are putting a little to much faith into unproven tech. I know you guys want something to get excited for I just don't think this is it. I am all about being proven wrong if this somehow ushers in next gen gaming interaction. However everything I saw looked a little smoke and mirrors to me.

Microsoft didn't have much to announce that interests me, but the likes of Forza 3, Splinter Cell, Conviction and Halo 3: ODST is virtually guaranteed AAA material and will pull in massive audiences. I have no doubt that Microsoft are happy with what they've got.

It's still a disappointment for me though. I have a feeling Sony and Nintendo's conferences will be far more exciting.

Nintendo has wii-fit plus! Thats instant win, just like how wii music was instant win last year!

well at least with casuals............. lol

Wii Music was a failure, and Nintendo themselves know it, they look back at the sales compared to Wii Fit and weep. They arn't going to make that same mistake as they did last year, this year, they are going to throw out everything they've got to surpass what Microsoft brought into the fight.

Nintendo will use sales, charts and graphs. Sony will showcase their new RIIIDGGGGEEEE RACCERR! :PStevo_the_gamer

Well if games we already know about doesnt impress, then Sony is in for an awful presentation tmrw. There is no way they will outdo MS. MGS Spinoff? Call it what you want, I call it MGS on X360 shadow8585

I find it hard to see what the big deal is. MGS2: Substance was ported to the Xbox last gen.

Thirded. Assuming Nintendo have taken note of how lame their 2008 conference was, they should have no probably sailing through it tomorrow.

[QUOTE="kenakuma"] you are aware of the fact that 1. wii fit plus will probably outsell gta iv 2. wii music outsold deadspace and mirrors edge combined

I never said they wouldn't sell well!

Thats great that they sell so well...... for NINTENDO!!

I however am a gamer and dont give2 craps how much a game sells, instead I actually care how GOOD games are and how fun they are to play! And GTA blows wii fit out of the water any day of the week!

the MS press conference is so bad that Sony and Nintendo dont even need to try to win.

is that it? MGS spin off? eye toy ripf off? natal?
