The new and smaller E3 2007 will be taking place in Santa Monica from July 11-13. The expo has been exponentially reduced to be a more private convention for developers and only developers... or other people involved in the industry. With the expo less than a month away, what are your predictions?
While the show will be a lot smaller, the big three are still planning their usual conferences and will have space for new titles on the showfloor. So, what do you think we can expect for this year's E3?

Obviously news about the big hits of Brawl, Corruption, Galaxy, and Phantom Hour Glass. I also hope for bigger titles for games and equipment, but that is predictions. I think that it would mostly be game titles, but I could be wrong. It would be nice for a Zelda like game or Zelda itself, but it is way too EARLY.

Yeah, I definitely forsee Nintendo releasing an HDD for Wii. That way they can put it on store shelves and say that there is an option for extra storage for demos and such, and then it will give them a reason to put out demos and morechannels... because people couldn't possibly complain about not having any extra storage space because Nintendo would have made an optional HDD available.

As for Sony, all I have to say is... :lol:

That's just about what I expect, minus the sony thing. I just hope Nintendo allows your to use other HDD then their own. Nintendo's HDD is going to be massivly overpriced just liked their SD card.

I think Nintendo's prime focus this year is to prove simple that the Wii is "no gimmick".They are just going to show trailers of thebig three and probably Mario Kart. After which they will show new games and IPs that really use the Wii controls in new and interesting ways. I think Nintendo can easily assuming they have the right demos blow out the competition like last year. One thing for sure is we can all expect a powerfulSony conference which is gonna stress the PSPsales surge and show a lot of new games just lke Ninteno. One thing for sure is 07 is gonna blow ahole inany gamers pocket. As i write this I am realizing how important this years "mini E3" will be,here to hoping Nintendo comes out on top again.

And probably a lot news on non-big-three games. Like 'No more Heroes' or 'Sadness' or 'Project H.A.M.M.E.R.' or and enormous lot of games of which I can't remember the name of.

Oh, and probably Mario&Sonic at the Olympics. Don't kill me, but I think this game won't be as bad as everyone says.

This mini E3 is a big one for NIntendo. Nintendo needs to show the power of the console and show that it isn't a fad. E3 could help Nintendo pull away in sales from Sony. I have a feeling Sony has plan for E3. This are three critrical dates for Nintendo.

I hope Sony and Microsoft will both have very incredible stuff at E3 so that Nintendo finally wakes up and act ! We need more of the hardcore games then those casual games ! I know that these casual games aren't replacing our SSBB and Zelda but they seem to be the Wii's only focus right now and we need something with more balance.

I'm actually hesitating on buying a Wii now, if Nintendo can't come up with great stuff at this year's E3 then it's bye-bye Wii for me.

Ubisoft: Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 details, maybe anounce a sequal for Red Steel

Quit bashing Sony, I think you're gonna get really impressed on what they have on stores :wink:.

OFF TOPIC: Only the idea of a PSP online store makes me drool ! Can't wait to have more details on that crazy thing ... plus I want the GPS thingy too.

I predict a Nintendo win, a Sony loss, and low key event for Microsoft. Just like last year.

I agree, FYI i carry alot of patrionism for nintendo and i wasnt trying to start a system war. Nintendo have been thinking big and telling but all of a sudden its gone silent, i suspect either a cool suprise or writer's block in this case would be game designer's block though. I'm rooting for number one. Like I said earlier Xbox 360 will probably have some cool stuff but not alot. Halo 3 and Rare i'm both hanging out for, I just hope they dont stuff up Banjo like they stuffed up Conker. Sony I have no idea and I own a PS2 that is (without trying to start a war) disliked to put it nicely. They'll probably have more news on their PSP than the PS3 with all the talking going around.

I don't really think that Nintendo will be willing to release new colors for Wii just yet. Business wise, it would make sense for them to wait until sales start to decrease for the console and then release a new color to make them rise again.

By the way, Microsoft already announced the new Banjo game with a short teaser trailer a few months ago :P

The DS lite's sales weren't decreasing when they released 2 new colors :?. On the oppposite, they have to release a new color fast to give the consumers more choices. The more choices the consumers have the happier they are ...

When you only have one color some customers might think ''WTF this color looks lame'', but instead when you've got one more color at least they can start to compare and choose their favorite one. It'll be really smart from their part to release the black one for this holiday season or sooner.

Oh yeah... everyone looks at white and says "THAT IS LAME!" .... -_-

Besides, the DS actually was in a bit of trouble when itFIRST released colors. The DS and PSP sales were neck and neck, a challenge Nintendo probably isn't used to in the handheld market.

I ready never looks at it that way, but I never thought color of the console would have affect on the consumer. I never ready cared about the Color, I cared about my console that I was buying. And I did actually know the the Banjo Kazooie 3 game was announced, I think maybe that I was trying to say that they were going to give details about it and maybe give a sneak peak of it.

It would be nice if the DS had a price decrease becasue that would influence me all the more to get one. Besides the games being annouced from each company, I don't know what to expect besides the predications being made. Things have been quiet and there might be a strom brewing.

Most of us have a DS, but some don't. It's not all expensive, alot more cheaper than the PSP, which I may say I a sad Handheld trying to compete with the reining handheld champ, Nintendo.

By the time the DS lite launched the DS was already outselling the PSP by a lot. And yeah people think that plain White is lame and empty. I like the color but Black looks more elegant.

Concerning the colors, I am a bit on a crossroad at the moment. I always, always bought every console in the original color, no matter which others were available. Right now, I am saving for a DS. I think black looks indeed better then white, but buying a black one would destroy that collection chain I just mentioned.

Oh, the cruel choices in life!

Well technically the black Wii is the original color. It may not be the original one at launch but it was the first color inwhich the Wii was revealed.

Of and Mariomainic, nice prediction for Sony's E3 :|.

:lol: Nice way to try and prove someone wrong lebs... but the console launched in white, so I deem the original color white. Besides, if you want to be technical, the original prototype shown at the E3 it was unveiled at was the ONLY time they actually showed the console in black. The other images showing it in black were released at or around the same time, and that was merely a prototype... the very first prototype at that. In fact, if we wanted to go by prototypes, then I'm sure the DS' original color wasn't silver, and especially the GCN's original color wouldn't be purple :? The rest of the Wii prototypes were shown in white, first seen at GDC 06, and at TGS 05 they only showed off a wiimote... which I believe, however, also was in white.

Sorry, I'm into specifics :P

Concerning the colors, I am a bit on a crossroad at the moment. I always, always bought every console in the original color, no matter which others were available. Right now, I am saving for a DS. I think black looks indeed better then white, but buying a black one would destroy that collection chain I just mentioned.

Oh, the cruel choices in life!

Well technically the black Wii is the original color. It may not be the original one at launch but it was the first color inwhich the Wii was revealed.

Of and Mariomainic, nice prediction for Sony's E3 :|.

That whole pile of text was not needed REV :|. I was not trying to prove somebody wrong; the Gamecube was first showned in Purple = Original color, the N64 was showned in Black/Brown = the original color, the SNES was first showned in Grey = the original color, the GBA was first showned in purple = the original color, the DS was first showned in Silver = the original color, the DS lite was first showned in White = original color, the Wii was firstly showned in Black but they opted for the White at launch = I'm totally messed up right now.

If you want to get even more technical, the SNES (and I'm pretty sure the N64) only came out in grey so that would have to be the original color. Anyway, my friend got a triangle shaped screwdriver so he could take apart his Wiimote and spray paint it. He has a black one, a red one and a silver one. They actually look pretty good.

I'm really not expecting anything big this years "mini"E3.It's all going to be about online capability,possibly a added DVD player ect,....I just hope that when get official dates for the release of the two most anticipated games to come out on the Wii which being SSBB and Galaxy.Other then that i think that is going to be it.Oh yeah and ofcourse Nintendo is going to come out on top again !!!!

Yepp, that article is correct, last week Nintendo was on the verge of toppling Sony in market value, and now they have finally done it after all of these years of them being the underdog. Great news to hear, that's for sure... although I personally don't think that this victory will last unless Nintendo announces a few changes at E3.

I saw an ad on G4 for E3 and they gave it theme this E3 like "The Battle of Games." I guess that is going to happen this E3 is game updates/ announcements. In another union, someone suggested a new handheld by Nintendo at this E3. I looked at this a little weird because isn't early for a new handheld??? Also the DS has only been out for about 2 years..... I think.

A new handheld is a little out there... Nintendo has no reason to introduce a new handheld. Iwata even said it himself, why fix what isn't broken? Or in other words, why make a new handheld when the current one is still selling so well?

I think that a new handheld could be introduced late next year, and then released maybe the following holiday season (2009), but otherwise that is just outrageous. Oh, and the DS will be three this coming November.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought it was early for a new handheld. Also you bring up a good point about how well the DS is selling and with good reason. Also by that quote from Iwata convinces that they won't show off a new handheld.

Nintendo really has no reason to introduce a new handheld. Like Iwata said. The DS is doing very well in it's sales and it has a terrific growing library.
