Best Eł ever for Nintendo fans? (Be warned: fanboyism!)
 
I simply LOVE it. :D
It started with the bad Sony news. Expensive, no rumble and they half-copied Nintendo. All pointed and laughed at Sony. :p

Then the Nintendo press conference which was good. Then the incredible waiting lines for the Wii. :love: Then Super Smash Bros and other surprises.

The positive articles from newspapers. Suddenly Nintendo is accepted as a serious contender this round.

Massive support for it too.

Yep, definately best Eł for me. Even beats the GameCube one (I was at family in France, I printed the picture of the controller there.... it was exciting but not half as good as this).

Your thoughts?

Well it's pretty obvious what my thoughts are. :sneaky:

But I definitely didn't write off the 360. In fact, I'm buying one tonight now because I'm so excited for Gears of War and Phantasy Star Universe. They'll be awesome.

After E3, I'm considering only buying a Wii... Based on it's speculated price-point and my waning interesting in gaming...

But boy my heart's gonna be torn if and when they reveal Silent Hill 5 for the PS3...

Where Silent Hill goes, I will follow.

Unbiasedly, Nintendo had a good E3. Their conference should've had videos of SSB and other titles that people screamed for instead of waiting until later to show them.

This is one of the best E3's Ninty has ever had. Not everyday do they get praise like this.

Sony: They showed what they were going to do. They showed how great the grpahics are, among other things. Its just going to be hard for a good amount of people to stomach $600 for it.

Microsoft: They showed they are still in this race and that the 360 can do damn well for its 2nd gen games. I'll consider a purchase at some point, just not yet...

Can somebody point me in the direction of getting the Microsoft press conference?

Nintendo made the most impact no doubt. Not just with the Wii, but the crazy amount of DS games.

I really wanna see the Microsoft one!

Do you have gamespot complete or IGN insider?

I remember the E3 before the Cube.......oh man look at that thing! It's gonna rock Sony's socks!

I won't jump the gun and say Nintendo is going to "put Sony in it's place" or anything.

But I will say, 5 years from now, we'll see where we are 5 years from now.

There are a couple downloads of the full conference even for non-insiders.

Nintendo did show an awesome display, and won me over.

Even though I didn't really watch any of the presentation shows, I had a lot of fun here at GT reacting to all the news.

I don't remember people saying "Nintendo will rule over Sony with the Gamecube". I think people gave the GC the same reception they did with Sony this time around.
