Haha =) i can watch E3 tommorow commercial free =) BTW, whats is moon ? i've heard of it but i never looked into it.

 

[Darkurai]

You guys should see if you can do a live mini-podcast while watching the Nintendo Media Summit.
Personally, I don't really see it happening, but it would still be awesome.

I am hoping for Brawl, updated version. The only new thing it will have is a character creator where you can type in a character's name and it will somehow magically import that character into the game. That is what I am expecting at E3.

Those are some pretty high hopes, kid. Smash Bros. is all about characters that are already established (except Roy, but that's why they took him out I guess). Throwing in the ability to make your own characters (unless they're Miis, since Miis are already established) would go against what Smash Bros. is.

The only thing that would possibly happen is that I alone do a live-reaction live feed thing on Stickam. It wouldn't be released through iTunes or even recorded, but mostly just for fun.

We'll see, though...

 

[Exia 00]

Oh god! Is Reggie going to lie again =O ? Also, i dont but does anyone expect any smash anouncements ?( besides it being succesful )

 

[Spartan64]

stop rubbing it in my face because i have to wait a whole month to lear what happend!!!!

[AgentJGV]

Or just watch G4. Also, Question Youko. How does one tune in for live podcast.

 

[Youko]

http://www.stickam.com/smyn

It will be pretty straightforward from there.

 

[AgentJGV]

k Thanks...and I waste my 100th post o well.

 

[Youko]

Hm, now that I have access to our stickam account, I'm finding it to be very interesting...

I'd stay tuned to it if I was a fan, just a suggestion...maybe even add us as a friend...

 

[The Star King]

Nuuuuuuu, I'm going to Niagara Falls tommorow, it's a 8 hour drive, and I was hoping to listen to SMYN to pass the time. Ah well, I guess I'm forced to listen to old episodes.

It was just a joke -_-

Hehe, so what? I listen to old episodes all the time. SMYN is a necessity for life for me now.

 

[Youko]

Sooooo yeah, don't mind me on the stickam account guys, I'm totally just doing whatever I want testing stuff out. But you can stop by and chat if you wish.



EDIT:
Negi-kun, I see you entering and leaving the room...>.>

 

[Negi-Kun]

By the way, I was trying to log into my account as a member or whatever it's called. But in the end I just used the nickname function. >_>

 

[Cyberlink420]

Well, Microsoft's conference is done. A pretty even mix of awesome and lame, though the awesome levels were slightly higher. I'm especially hyped after hearing that the original Banjo Kazooie is coming to XBLA, especially since it's supposed to include actual working Stop 'N Swop functionality...

 

[Terios the Hedgehog]

FF13. Srsly. **** yeah.

 

[motherfan]

Hey Youko, I know that your waiting for Duke Nukem Forever to come out. Maybe the DS trilogy will keep you ocupied in the mean time: http://gonintendo.com/?p=49486

 

[Egallardo26]

here is my submission for the contest
Note: I did not make the sprites I just edit the colors

 

[Sariku]

I think you need to have Sariku on again! Bring SMYN back to your roots! Sariku's humor makes every episode he's in a classic! Plus, he's a Sonic main so he can give a unique perspective. Is Sonic really bottom-tier or do all the n00bs who play him distract from the fact that Sonic can own? Ask Sariku on an episode of SMYN for an insight into the world of a living legend... How does the past host of Who's In feel about the character after months of thought? And does Sariku think that Lucario will be in the next Smash? The fans want him, the iTunes users want him, and we all know Youko wants to hang out with Sariku again.

Can't wait for the next episode!

Actually, that sounds like a good idea. While I still want to join the contest (I'm coloring my picture as we speak) I think having Sariku back for the next pod cast would be great!

Sonic will be top. Believe it!

Okay. I say mid personally but wever.

Moar Sariku plox.

People want me back? Haha, I'd love to, but it's up to Youko and SamuraiPanda.

Maybe they'll say yes, though. =]

 

[Youko]

So, uh, I'm highly doubting that Nintendo can top that press conference. Even with a (rumored) new DS and (confirmed) improved Wii remote sensitivity. Microsoft did just pretty much everything they wanted to, plus kicked Sony in the balls...hard.


I'd like to say "Prove me wrong, Big N," but I'm really having my doubts.

 

[Cyberlink420]

Yeah, but at the same time, MS clearly showed that they're trying to imitate Nintendo's more family-oriented approach with the avatars, the channel-based dashboard, the surge of casual games like Scene It and Uno...it just looked blatantly ripped off, and I know a lot of others feel the same.

Still, I enjoyed the rest of the conference a lot. MS clearly has a solid lineup of stuff planned, and I'm looking forward to many of them (espeially now that I know all my Rock Band 1 stuff can be transferred to RB2...). With Nintendo promising new Kid Icarus, Punch Out, Animal Crossing, and F-Zero games, though, it's certainly going to be an interesting spectacle tomorrow...

 

[cmpr94x]

What did microsoft announce?

 

[-Wolfy-]

I wish I totally grasped what the "Horde" mode really means as far as Gears of War 2 goes. Anyone have a better explanation than was given, because it went right over my head.

 

[SamuraiPanda]

Was I the only one falling asleep during Microsoft's press conference? All Ninty has to do is announce the games everyone already knows are going to happen eventually, and they got E3 in the bag. I'd love to see Sony pull a fast one, but we'll see aboot that.

 

[piffman2]

A lot of the conferences was good but what was there we didn't already know? besides FFXIII and the XBLA stuff what did Microsoft announce that was new and worthwhile a.k.a. not Your in the Movies

 

[Terios the Hedgehog]

Obviously Gears of War 2 takes place in Azeroth.

 

[Negi-Kun]

I'm agreeing with SamuraiPanda on this one.

 

[Deception]

Nintendo built up a lot of hype by not revealing anything. They'll probably have the best show, though, seeing as there will be a lot of new stuff we don't know about. Unless they announce there broke or that the big game is casual.

 

[Youko]

There's some rumor floating around about a new DS - slimmer, sub-$100, no GBA slot, and with some built-in accelerometers...would it really be worth it??

 

[Negi-Kun]

I'd probably get it...just to get you know, updated =/

 

[Darkurai]

What did microsoft announce?

Miis.

I'm not making this up. They are just like Miis. They're customizable like Miis, they're implemented like Miis, hell, they even look like Miis.
Microsoft also spewed some brilliant bull****.
"We were the first to sell 20 million units!"
They made this same statement before and proceeded to say "The Wii doesn't count".
"We've outsold the Wii and PS3 combined!"
Has the PS3 sold negative amounts? That's the only way they're beating the Wii.
"By the end of the year, we will have sold more units worldwide than the PS3."
They mention the one they're already beating, not the one that's kicking their ***.

 

[Cyberlink420]

No way. Activision just released Guitar Hero On Tour, and they've already got a sequel in the works. If the redesign didn't have a GBA slot, then people would have no way to play the game. And I don't think that Nintendo wants to piss off any big 3rd party developers...

Besides, I'm pretty sure that they said recently that there wouldn't be a DS redesign at E3...

They said they weren't redesigning the DS the day before they announced the Lite.

As far as I'm aware Nintendo hasn't 'promised' any of that. Even ACWii hasn't been officially mentioned.

 

[Darkurai]

Technically, it has. Just a very long time ago. One of the early screenshots for the Wii Menu had an Animal Crossing Wii thing on it. They are doing Animal Crossing Wii, they're just not telling us anything about it.

 

[DVD Smith]

As far as I'm aware Nintendo hasn't 'promised' any of that. Even ACWii hasn't been officially mentioned.

Punch-Out has been confirmed by British magazine NGamer. I know, I have the copy sitting next to me.

If all goes to plan (and our sources haven't played a mean trick on us), that hands-on E3 coverage will be of Animal Crossing and Punch-Out!! Wii, aka Nintneod's great hopes for 2008.

I think Cyberlink also said that Kid Icarus has been confirmed too.

However, Animal Crossing, Punch-Out and Kid Icarus conbined wouldn't excite me half as much as if they announced F-Zero Wii.

 

[Cyberlink420]

That's the thing, though: F-Zero Wii has been confirmed. Not only that, but Capcom of all companies is handling development this time around.

Also, it seems that Nintendo may not be showing Kid Icarus after all, so don't get your hopes up too high...
