9. Easily their best E3 showing since 2010 (or at least the most exciting). Lots of good stuff. Mario Maker was surprising, despite the leak. Yoshi's Woolly World made me smile like a goofy little kid. Xenoblade Chroniclles X & Bayonetta 2 look amazing. The newer / smaller announcements we're pretty exciting (Canvas Curse sequel!); hell, Toad is getting a retail game . Smash Bros. looks better than ever (so hype). Hyrule Warriors looks really good. Also... ZELDA My mouth was literally hanging open. Haven't been this excited for a Zelda game since Wind Waker. 2015 can't come soon enough. If they would have actually showed Star Fox, I'd probably give it a 10. Still, best E3 in a while. EDIT: Forgot about Splatoon! A new IP / Arena Shooter from a younger Nintendo team (seemingly)? Awesome. It kind of gives off Sega/Dreamcast vibes, too, which is certainly not a bad thing. Really excited for that. EDIT 2: Also forgot about amiibo. Not really sure what to make of it yet. All I know is it'll be hard trying to refrain from buying every figurine. |

10, hands down. The pacing was great, too many announcements I didn't expect and a new IP in a genre they really hadn't touched in a long time where they actually managed to do something very creative with it and get me interested. They even managed to tease Star Fox and a few other things.
Shit I almost forgot about the damn Bayonetta 1+2 bomb (I was literally this close to buying the older versions... well now I can wait and get bonuses for doing so, GGs!), and then stuff outside of the "conference" just icing on the cake.
Not even counting the Smash invitational that just ended, which personally I'd count as part of the overall presentation, not counting all the impressions from the floor via Treehouse... I've not watched an E3 from Nintendo and been THIS happy in years. Like, early 2000s.
I geeked out all over my twitter feed.
I have to say, I really, REALLY enjoy this style of presentation and 'm glad they went with it despite all the outcry from media and journalists saying it was foolish. Really allowed them to make a very tight presentation. The Robot Chicken segments were extremely unexpected and while hit or miss, just having them there is kind of a huge deal for a company that has been very insular for such a long time. If you would have asked me 6-7 years ago when Robot Chicken debuted if Ninety would use them in their presentation, I'dve died laughing.
Not even mentioning the opening fight! That had me crying, I rewound the "Directly to you" stance like 10 times.
I wanted to give it a 9 and find something, but... nope, I can't. Perfect this year. And all the streams seemed to be solid as a rock, too.
...also, hai gais <3 |
