Justice has been served.



They didn't even bring out Ratchet's full arsenal.

His crazy armor ("Reduce ALL damage by 80% lol) and the infernox power up, Clank being able to turn into a giant robot, vaporizing weaponry etc. :laugh:

fixed for ya...
Unless Retro's been working on Prime 4, I feel like Metroid's not an option for a few years due to the focus over years to make Fed.
F-Zero I'll consider a crazy dream so I can be happy if/when it happens.

DKCR3, WL, and with Robobot being remade from TD's core engine... I am hoping for a big console game, since the last was RtD.

Holy Crap How Many Fire Emblem Characters Are In This Game?
Medeus Burns Up!

Arvis Scorns Into Battle!

Where is Kellam?

Anna Steals the Show!

Or how about this, Sakurai would add a new Metroid character that isn't Rdiely to make us all happy and it's one who's from a new game.

I'm already calling it. This will happen in next year's E3. :troll:

Hey, what's going o-

*reads*

Oh golly, I just walked into some news.

Handheld-console hybrid confirmed?!

I could start questioning why they're skipping E3, but everyone else already has that covered.

However, as much as they're probably going to lose some sales releasing Q1 2017 instead of Q4 2016, I understand why they did it:

When was the last time that something that was rushed for holiday release was actually GOOD?

Nah. Japan will do it for them. Plus ZZS and Bayo exists so they'll do a work around

So I heard about the news.

As a Zelda fan this upsets me, as it really shouldn't have been delayed just so that the new console could have a launch-title, not to mention Zelda won't be celebrating it's birthday with something extravagant.

My brother is really pissed off at Nintendo at the moment so yeah I'll leave it there.

Well Atleast the handheld aspect isn't bad.

Especially DQ7/8 getting localized and more SNES titles on 3DS.

Plus I have an Xbox One and I'm interested in Mafia 3, Gears 4, a lot of 360 games getting on the BC list and hopefully I can finally play Mighty Number 9 despite EVERYTHING that happened
Is there a list of BC games heading to Xbox One?

I'm sorry, what?
I'm looking forward to it. I enjoyed Sticker Star. Sure, I would have loved a game more like TTYD, but I'm not among the people who condemn it for the crime of being inferior to a predecessor.

You'll only be able to buy it through limited download codes sold at GameStop
That's bull. I was really looking forward to playing the first Xenoblade game without having to buy a N3DS and that shiz is going to sell out faster than I can blink. Niny needs to make this a normal VC title like the Metroid Prime Trilogy.
Two things.
A) Pikmin 4. Pikmin 4 better be at E3 because if it was "almost ready" last year I better not have to wait for March 2017.

B) March release for NX?
:4dk::4wario2::4kirby: C'mon launch titles
The better question is what's going to be shown at this year's E3 (other than Zelda and Pokemon)? Think about all the Wii U games this year and there's hardly anything left other than Color Splash and that waifu SMTXFE game.

Really the Digital Event is shaping to be only...

- Zelda Wii U
- Pokemon Sun and Moon
- Paper Mario Color Splash
- Brief segments for Metroid Prime Federation Force and SMT X FE since we already know about these games
- Dragon Quest games?
- Other leaked 3DS games from this past February

That's really it so I think. Zelda Wii U is going to take up like a good 15-20 minutes of the event and the rest of it is going to be dedicated to the games I mentioned above and some other skits involving Reggie, Bill, and Miyamoto. That's my realistic expectations for this event. Maybe if i'm lucky there will be a new Golden Sun or Advance Wars game but I can't get my hopes up for that.

Except Eliwood's actually little more than a sprite edit of Roy in terms of combat.
So moreso.
:4darkpit::4drmario: as :4pit::4mario: clones/10


(this is the biggest gif I found of his Durandal animation)

Anyways, my point still stands, Eliwood is graceful while Roy sits in the back so he won't die is more of brute force(at least for a 14-year old kid)
If anything, Eliwood would be a Marth clone as his default animations are basically Shield Breaker
That's bull. I was really looking forward to playing the first Xenoblade game without having to buy a N3DS and that shiz is going to sell out faster than I can blink. Niny needs to make this a normal VC title like the Metroid Prime Trilogy.

It was a joke based on the game originally being gamestop exclusive




Also Emily Rogers was kind enough to allow me access to view her tweets (making tweets private is a weird system)


She decides to give a nice little post saying

And did I mention that NX will get the superior version of Smash Bros U? Because it is. That's one of the NX ports in development.
What does "Superior" mean exactly? Graphics? Content? Would she have that in depth of information? Who knows. But the implication is there. :p

I wouldn't judge Color Splash yet. People have pointed out that it could be an improvement to SS's format. I'd wait till we see more on it.
I wish I couldn't, but from what we've seen so far, it's exactly what most fans don't want in Paper Mario. I'm all for gimmicks, but changing the genre from RPG to action adventure is a tad bit too much. I get that they're trying new things, which is good, but completely obliterating what we loved oh-so dearly? That's a step backwards, if you ask me. I'm sure if they retained everything Paper Mario, such as the battle formula, non-generic Toad NPCs, a good and immersive story, partners, badges, and all of that, as well as the new paint mechanic to act as Mario's Special weapons (like the Star Spirits and Crystal Stars), then only will both new and old Paper Mario fans reunite to enjoy a game worthy enough of being called a Paper Mario game.

I'm going to go into E3 like I do everything else: No expectations and little hype.
Because there's no point complaining over things that I imagined not becoming a reality; as if Nintendo should appeal to me and only me.

E3 is more than just Nintendo and there's certainly a lot to be excited for as a gamer. Just broaden your horizons a bit.

Fudge. With all the stuff Nintendo does like making things exclusive to one place I really thought this was true. Ahh well. Good to see that this game is coming to the VC. Will buy for sure.

I'll just say this, Sega's probably going to lose a ton of fans if July's Sonic reveal turns out to be lackluster. I know because it's all a part of the never ending Sonic Cycle.

But I'll give them the benefit of doubt and predict this new title could be something as hype as Generations. Think about it this way, Sega did say they want to do better and it's going to take a hell lot for that to happen. This is coming from someone who's family supported Sega before they "died" with the Dreamcast.

So I guess Nintendo and Sega aren't that different after all.

Well, running off of past Digital Events.
We're gonna see ~50 minute Digital Event.
Let's say about 8 minutes is going to be taken up by the little skits in between and the "opener" like the first two or three minutes last year was Star Fox Puppet Pals
~42 minutes of games, then.
Between a "developer corner" or whatever it's called, a possible retrospective, and full trailer, Zelda UNX could very well take 15 minutes. SMM took a TON of last year with little news, this has more promise.
~27 minutes left.
I say we could see 3 minutes for color splash in a more full trailer.
~24.
Sun & Moon is probably gonna have a proper trailer, about 2 minutes based on the XY from 2013.
~22.
Federation Force and TMS#FE I don't see appearing.
Honestly the dragon quest ports could get up to 3 minutes running over them.
~19
Obligatory "Nindies" segment for about 4 minutes.
~15.
Big reveal of Project N-Stars for later this year. I say it could be 10 minutes itself.
Approximately 5 other minutes from a theoretical E3 presentation.

It COULD be trialers for the Hyrule Warriors: Legends dlc to come. Marin's not gotten a trailer and we could see a teaser for the DS era pack.

Alternatively, that's where you have those other 3rd Party exclusive things like the Skylanders: Charged segment from last year be a highlight. Hell, (part of) it could be YW2's first phase of localization since the anime's getting its second season this year AND Wib Wob shows that they've gotten a headstart on the localization of names... (even if Europe is getting the first game in two days).

Well, Shattered Crystal was considered the "better" of the two Sonic Boom games.

How much of a "better" game it was is up for debate.

They've also showed nothing to prove it to the contrary.
All evidence to this point is following Sticker Star formula's closely.
And many will argue that if there was any point of major divergence they'd try to show it off in the announcement.
The one scene of Mario opening a house and there being about dozen identical paper toads does not do its case well.

Unfortunately consoles are expensive.

Even if i watch nearly every E3 anyway




I wonder if NX ports will coincide with amiibo reprints. . .I wouldn't mind another chance to get Kid Icarus amiibo

Damn. Just looking at the lineup this year for Nintendo.

Besides Pokemon... like ****. I feel really bad for Nintendo fans this year.

I mean Nintendo has had bad holiday seasons. But this is the worst it's been. Hope they pick it up in 2017.

VR circlejerking is gonna be the bulk of E3 that isn't Nintendo.

Nintendo and NX was supposed to be the saving grace. :(

The evidence is "Every npc we've seen for Color Splash is the same generic Toad." (edit: barring Peach and the bucket companion)
The extrapolation that all npcs will follow this formula as present in the last two Paper Mario featuring titles (SS and Paper Jam).

Could this end up not being the case? Yes.
But there is evidence for a lack of change and people are sticking to that assumption until proven wrong. Right or wrong that may be, we won't know until we see more.

That's quite hard to do when the PlayStation 4 and XBOX ONE hardly have any games that interest you.
