E3 2012: Discussion and Predictions Thread - Page 44

I'm buying (probably in order):
Paper Mario / Luigi's Mansion
Fire Emblem: Awakening
Pokémon B/W2
NSMB2
Possibly Castlevania
Possibly Heroes of Ruin

PM and Luigi's Mansion look irresistible. :3 Both of them are going to be must buys. FE is definitely going to be bought asap. The others...well, they're just going to be bought eventually as money rolls in. x3

That 3DS conference just shot Sticker Star way up there on my list, with only Wii U and maybe Pikmin above it.

I'm a huge Paper Mario fan, so portability seems like gaming heaven.

The game itself looks damn fun, I don't mind the lack of partners. Nintendo got me so excited when Bildorff said "Fans won't have to wait long." I was becoming thrilled for a summer release. Major sorrow when I saw "Holiday." I WANT IT!

No new announcements at the show, just details and release dates.

I feel terrible for Animal Crossing fans. I don't have an interest, but I can imagine how they feel. I would be furious.

Asking for Pikmin 1 and 2 with enhanced Wii controls next month on my birthday. Never played the series before, but my friends tell me it's really good. And I'm enthralled with Pikmin 3 already. Looks very fun.

Good E3 for Ninty, a decent selection of games to receive for Xmas. It'll be a gamer's holiday. I'm just curious of Wii U's exact release and price.

Nintendo: Forever the True King of Gaming.

Kept a bit quiet over E3 to absorb all the information...

Firstly, Pikmin 3 looks incredible. In a way it's a shame it was shown right at the very beginning of the conference because that was when they peaked. Never mind though.

Having not bothered getting either of the previous New Super games, I actually find myself incredibly interested in NSMB2 for some reason. The "collect as many coins as you can" gameplay sounds quite fun, and is actually a lot more refreshing than just normal level gameplay. If the reviews for it sound encouraging I'll almost certainly get it

Super excited about Paper Mario (even more so than before) - the whole sticker thing is a good idea. I'll miss having partner characters, but if it DID have partner characters they could have been a massive letdown, so this is fine.

ZombiU is far and away the best example of how WiiU works, and probably by far the best reason to buy the console at this point...I usually don't bother with survival-horror, but this game offers something not available anywhere else, which is really what Nintendo should be doing more of. For shame.

The lack of Metroid, Zelda, F-Zero and Starfox doesn't bother me at all.

Yeah, there were a lot of bows this year. I blame the Hunger Games. They've "mainstream'd" bows. Now everybody is gonna think I'm a HG fanboy even though I've never seen the movie or read the books

Bahahahahaha

Amazon is trolling E3

They have a page dedicated to all the E3 games they have bows or helicopters in them

Respect+1

As anyone watching the E3 video streams knows, 2012 is rife with video games showcasing helicopters and bows. This page was created to help everyone find all the helicopter- and bow-related video games they're looking for.

›Check Out Our Regular E3 Page (Warning: 53% Less Helicopters and Bows)

Even better is the option to view sort by "Bows", "Helicopters", or "Both".

And The Avengers... and Brave.

It's a good year to be a bow in Hollywood.

And now in video games too apparently.

Wah wah.

I also like this.

Whether you liked Nintendo's E3 or not, you have to admit that their sense of humour about themselves makes people like Reggie and Iwata much more human than the other companies' faces.
