This thread is an amazing example of 'not the target audience'.

Who knows, I am sure the Wii U will be quite a hit. The Wii sold like wildfire all over the world and I am fairly sure with the HD equivelent developers will surely start to release major titles on it. Lets just see.

Deduct the semantic null buzzwords, and there's not really that much left.  Still, it is an impressive collection of overused forum cliches.  Two thumbs up.

Maybe we will finally get some decent improvements if a lil bit more fail is introduced!

Indeed.  A great culling is needed out there.

I watched Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft press conference.

I was amazed by the sheer amount of violence, the Microsoft conference might as well have a screen covered in blood to show off their games.

I liked Beyond and some Nintendo games were casual but kind of cute.

this! I have yet to see a single game that nobody proclaimed a failure.

People think Nintendo will fail everytime and they are proven wrong every time, as long as it is cheaper then all other consoles and focusing and games for younger people parents will snatch it up first before any other consoles. 

 

that said i felt the nintendo conference was better then all the other, even though it was pretty much blah E3

300 dollars for a handheld overhyped piece of crap controller known as the wii u isnt alot? wtf ever.

remember the 3ds and how everyone thought it would be a hit? then remember the crap sales and the massive price drop to 169 dollars. 300 dollars is to much for any handheld. BOTTOM LINE.

Yup, they sure succeded with the gamecube...oh wait, last place witht eh crappiest lineup.

I'm curious to see how Wii U does. Nintendo HAS failed in the past quite often for those that missed it (Virtual Boy, Game Pad, Game glove, the stupid Robot...good god I could go all week...), but they've also had fantastic success in systems like the GB, N64, GBA, DS, and Wii. Wii U oon paper looks like a horrible idea, but a few years back I was laughing at how stupid the Wii looked. Guess which is the ONLY console system I currently own? Funny how that works. Nintendo has proven time and again if they can make fun, compelling games, it doesn't matter HOW weird the platform is.

All in all, E3 this year has been...meh. A few good titles (Last of us, Beyond, Watch Dogs, etc), some pretty hefty disappointments, and a lot of NOTHING from some of the big developers.

Its not our (the gamers) fault that  literally every game made now is just a cash grab. Of course we're going to be mad and complain about it. Because most of us here grew up with MMOs that were actually art.

Why are you ignoring the Wii, with which they had a huge success up to the point that they even surpassed PS3 and X360 for several years?

As for the E3 show, it had Beyond and The Last of Us, which both look to be something spectacular for their target audience.

As for the other things, well, gaming market has slowly moved from the hardcore gamer audience to a mainstream audience, sucks for hardcore gamers, but that's the way it is. We'll see how things work out for them, sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Funny thing, the thread wasn't at all about MMO's, that's why it's in the gaming section, yet the complaining apparently remains the same as proven again. Looks like he got a point

It's not really that there's more crap on the market these days (the percentage stayed the same), but there's just more games in general. Also in a strange way making AAA games has become an risky business. (with games costing like milions of dollars to make) Thus we get games that don't take any risk and as a result seem dull and uninspired (which they ARE!).

Becuase its irrelevent? that would be a good reason to ignore something.

"People think Nintendo will fail everytime and they are proven wrong every time"

unless somehow having the weakest sales AND library makes your console not a failure then no one was proven wrong every time.

Theres also teh fact that the wii sucks, bigtime, you could sell 100 billion of them, wont make the software linup or console not suck.

QFT.  Which makes me wonder what's wrong with me that I hang around here.  It's certainly not because it's a positive or inspiring environment.

Among the big three's presentation, i'm only moderately impress by microsoft's. Their xbox 360 eco system is becoming quite impressive and complicated and the coming window 8 is just opening too much possibility...much more than the Wii U imo.

Like?

I'm seriously interested but suspect it will be all gimmicky like the Kinect system.

Which is off course aimed at the same audience as the Wii and Move; elderly women and children and people not interested in "real" games in general.

E3 is the biggest waste of time, I don't even consider myself a gamer after that if they think that's what gaming is. Rap music presentations, women dancing, the same violent FPS game developed by 10 different companies, and casual games that can't even get control schemes right. Honestly I have no place in this industry if people continue to buy into this shit, I used to make jokes about how Call of Duty had killed the industry but after seeing E3 this year it's proof. Every single game at E3 was Call of Duty, and no one can dispute that. Everything was a first person regen health ADS shooter. 

Stop buying this shit people, please.
