Motion Sensing Plus. An updated motion sensing controller is what I wanted all along from Nintendo. It's good to see that Hardware does matter to Nintendo. It would be stagnating if computer technology only evolved in one direction.

What they showed in their keynote speech was not aimed at us, and I am not thrilled by it. It was aimed at third party developers to show Nintendo are not dominating their hardcore market so we'll get more games. It was aimed at publishers who want to see that Nintendo will make games that will sell consoles. So they're in the middle.

I am happy to see Wii Sports 2 including swordfighting and waverace, and I am happy that they said there are other sports unannounced in it. We should expect Nintendo to show other games in Wii Sports Resort over the coming month.

The other cool things from this E3 where Zelda and Mad World. Mad World would have won E3 for Nintendo if it wasn't all they had to show hardcore gamers.

The worst news this E3 was Sony losing exclusive rights Final Fantasy XIII. It was a good buisness strategy for Square Enix and FFXIII fans don't suffer, but Sony do suffer as they will not grow in America or Europe from this game as they would if it was an exclusive.

I don't know how you people can say Nintendo had the worst E3. They catered to themselves, not to you. We got to see Mad World and we are getting a hardware upgrade with a game. It wasn't negative like Sony was in losing a major major exclusive to a competitor.

Happy you liked it. I think it was total crap, and Nintendo has seemed to forget who got them to this point. Thank you Nintendo for saving me $250. This will be the first Nin. console I will not own.

I have nothing against Nintendo, but you desperately trying to make it seem as though Nintendo's conference WASN'T a disaster simply is not going to work... you've been doing it all night and it hasn't worked, poking at the wound is just making it worse. It was a disaster, you are fighting a losing battle here man, you're better off putting your effort into a winnable cause.

Your thread says they had the best new annoucenment. Which is false because FFXIII on 360 was the best new annoucenment. Whats best for NIntendo is not always going to be best for me. This is one of those times probably amongst many.

Who ae they looking to impess then if they aren't looking to impress us their fans?

Nintendo is out the make money for themselves, we all know that cause every company is out for the same thing but they showed gamers bugger all.

To say it was a good press showing for them is a joke cause it was outright the worst showing they've ever done, they don't attend TGS so thats all they are showing for the year which is extremely bad, its like they just didn't care about being there and about there system, they proved to gamers that they aren't out of please us anymore but the aim for everything else but us, hardcore, casual or core, we all got owned today by nintendo.

If you think it was a good thing they showed today then you need a reality check.

They want to impress fans by having lots of games exclusive to their system. Why is it that Nintendo are getting so many exclusive games like Madworld or No More Heroes or Fatal Frame 4? It's because other consoles don't have the required hardware, sales, and Nintendo is not dominating the hardcore market like they usually do.

Nintendo has not "dominated" the hardcore market since the NES, but they never turned their backs like they have now. I think it is rather poor of them to do this. They are now the best race car on the track again, and I feel like they have just dumped sugar in their gas tank.

I have to admit I was hoping just for a tad bit more. For one, I think they needed to have a few more games announced. Like many are saying, they are focusing so much time on the casual gamer that they are losing the hard core gamer along the way. Heck, they talked so much about how Mario Kart DS and New Super Mario Bros. have sold so many copies I was half expecting them to announce sequels (which would have rocked!). I was also hoping that they would have dealt with the hardware a little bit. I mean come on Nintendo, making a USB storage device is not that hard, and if they would have had one ready it would have made many people happy. Wii Speak is cool, but only if other games start using it as well. Hopefully they can update a few games as well like Mario Kart Wii or Smash Bros. to use it. I duno, I was just hoping for a little more I guess, although I must say I wasn't completely let down.

I'm a big ninty supporter. I always buy their consoles first before the rest. I own all wii games worth owning. Bro, it wasn't just a disaster. It was total GARBAGE!!! Whatever happened to having a nice hardware upgrade, to some very good game announcements? Where are the new third party announcements? Hell, where are the new first party announcements of games worth having. Not another wario crap! Or even call of duty. I am pretty excited about MadWorld though. Apart from that, GARBAGE!!!

I definitely got the feeling that this E3 conference was aimed towards developers and industry execs. E3 is simply not what it used to be. Still, I do agree that the Motion Sensing Plus looks amazing.

Investers and developers maybe? :roll: Isn't that supposed to be the point of the new E3? I won't say that I'm not dissapointed, but in retrospect Nintendo has sort of dropped E3.

Nintendo is prolly asking themselves why they went with a motion sensor plastic stick.
