this guy "translating" while the nintendo guy is speaking, is really really annoying.

I love how Nintendo has a full orchestra playing theme music at their conferences. Way classy.

[purbeast0]

mario kart on 3ds ... never would have guessed...

 

[purbeast0]

Reggie teased the new console and then led straight into the 3DS...

 

[purbeast0]

mario on 3ds ... another surprise...

although it does look pretty freaking badass. closest thing to mario 64 sine mario 64.

 

[purbeast0]

Reggie teased the new console and then led straight into the 3DS...

ah ok, yea i heard him tease that but he said it like everyone already knew about it so i wasn't sure if they started with it.

 

[purbeast0]

luigi's mansion 2 ... first one was so stupid.

 

[Born2bwire]

Ok, I'm going to stop you there and ask you if you are really disappointed and surprised that they put Pokemon on the 3DS too?

 

[purbeast0]

man yesterdayi was saying how i thought MS was in need of new IP ...

then i watch this conference. nintendo is simply rehashing the shit out of the same ip they have been for 20+ years.

 

[The_Dude8]

so Nintendo is abandon the wii, all they talk about so far is 3ds.
wii U, look like a kindle merge with the ipad 2.

And you're surpised by this? It's business as usual for them.

 

[purbeast0]

looks like here is the console reveal...

 

[purbeast0]

WWOOWWW ...

WII U

FUCKING LAME AS SHIT!

caps

EDIT: the name that is

 

[Pheran]

That controller looks like a giant brick...

 

[ChaoZ]

I still have no idea what that controller does.

 

[purbeast0]

yea ... WII U looks like total ass. so underwhelming.

can't believe it is still wii quality graphics, but looks like it may be in HD which is okay i guess.

man nintendo has become a peripheral whore. wonder how much those controllers will cost.

 

[Ross Ridge]

Hmm... the lead up to the announcement of the name, justifying the previous choice of Wii had me worried, but well Wii U I guess isn't any worse.

The new controller looks like it's going to be awkward to actually hold in your hands and use. Way too big. I can't beleive it actually does have a 6.2" screen.

 

[dpodblood]

Giant touchscreen on the controller. Kind of what I expected, but with a lot more functionality.

 

[purbeast0]

the sony vita + ps3 + cloud integration is more impressive than this stupid shit they are trying to push.

 

[SAWYER]

Wii Underwhelming.. YAWN

 

[BlahBlahYouToo]

looks like fail.

Purbeast, please, continue with your incessant whining and bitching. I find your posts very interesting as they are valuable contributions to this thread.
