Start work exactly as this is happening :fp:

This is a huge opportunity for Nintendo, they need to turn Wii U around and with the right announcements on pricing and games they can help do that. They probably need to be looking at showing enough exclusives that they can show that the Wii U is the ideal companion console to a PS4 or Xbone.

We've already got a pretty good idea what we're going to see but I hope there's a few surprises as well. I'd love to see some of their franchises that have been relatively ignored for a few years revisited. Starfox, Wave Race, 1080 are all obvious choices but I'd love to see some of their more obscure titles like Eternal Darkness, Geist or Chibi Robo revisited.

I haven't got a WiiU but i'm definitely looking forward to this. I think they'll kinda do similar to Microsoft and just show off games, games, games during the Direct. Regardless of whether they made the most of their year headstart, now's the time to show off some of the big hitters. Not too hyped for Mario Kart but i'm looking forward to Smash Brothers and especially the Mario game..got my hopes up for a new Metroid and F-Zero :shifty: Would definitely love to see some new Ips from Nintendo as well. That said they've got such a strong back roster of games, now may be the time to dip into more of them.

If the games we know are coming look as great as I'm expecting then I will be very happy. Everything else is just icing if Smash Bros and Mario deliver. I'd love to see more on X though.

Let's do this Nintendo. Can't wait to see Mario Universe. Jimmy, you may also want to add info to the OP about Gametrailer's 'Power Hour' with Geoff Keighley interviewing Reggie and Shigeru.

7pm - 8pm: THE NINTENDO POWER HOUR WITH REGGIE AND MIYAMOTO!

It's the interview you've been waiting all E3 (well let's be honest, ALL YEAR!) to see. Geoff Keighley sits down with REGGIE FILS-AIME for an in-depth two part interview about the state of Nintendo. Will Reggie yell at Geoff again or will he check all the boxes and leave the competition in the dust? Find out live! Plus, the legend himself SHIGERU MIYAMOTO joins Geoff as well for a special chat about what's new at Nintendo. Finally our friends from MEGA64 join us to discuss their thoughts on E3 so far and we show the first E3 demo of SONIC LOST WORLDS for the Wii-U.

Bet he won't be asking about why their third party friends have deserted them. :(


I hope this is good. I doubt that we'll get anything unexpected or out of the blue though, just stuff we know about already that's out this year.

I expect that each of the year's biggest games (3D Mario, Luigi U, Smash, Pikmin, Wii Sports or Fit, maybe Sonic) will get five-ten minutes dedicated to them, with lesser games and a friendly Reggie filling the time gaps.

I don't want to be a downer, but I can't see any way for them to meet my expectations of what a good Nintendo E3 conference/NDirect should be (e.g. exciting, with several shock announcements). There will be no Metroids, no F-Zeros, only Mario and Luigi, Sonic, Smash, Pikmin and fitness. I doubt that we'll even get Watch Dogs, let alone GTA or Destiny or, hell, even The Division.

I hope the 3DS doesn't get too much focus, as we've had a ton of games announced for that system this year in Directs already.

Not expecting much from this one to be honest. Just the usual.
