Nintendo's E3 Press Conference
 

Hilights:

-Rebel Strike video, looks very nice
-Resident Evil 4 video...the creater was really gay and said "it will be very scary...don't pee your pants!" and then gave a thumbs up or something :lol: the video was nice though
-Miyamoto showed a couple new GCN-GBA connected games which were a new 4 player co-op Zelda: Four Swords game using both systems at once and a new 4 player Pac Man game using both systems at once. Shigeru is a pretty funny guy in his own little way :p
-Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes was in video form, and Kojima was there himself. It looks like a very polished reincarnation of one of my favourite games of all time...Seriously folks, for those who haven't played MGS, you have a lot to look forward to.
-Electronic Arts briefly showed off a new SIMS game for Gamecube and GBA which will have some connectivity features.
-Nintendo president stressed that the are emphasizing the power of GBA, the power of GCN, the power of the two connected, and the power of their partnerships with third parties.

Has anyone heard about the new FPS they are making. Its called Geist the shots are on www.cube-europe.com (but think they may have been closed down.) :<

yeah, I saw the geist video....looks decent...you enter the bodies of different characters...it's a FPS...looks like there's a 4 player split screen multiplayer mode

Resident Evil is never scary :p

And I wanna see the MGS: TS video! eeee!!!

Unveiling 120 new Game Boy Advance titles this year, including Super Mario® Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3™, Donkey Kong Country™, Pokémon® Pinball, Final Fantasy Tactics® Advance, Mario and Luigi™, Fire Emblem™, and Sword of Mana

Is there a place we can download it?

Compared to the Sony and MS shows this is kinda weak...

I haven't played much of the origanal MGS, so I'm gonna get Twin Snakes

There was also a brief video of Metroid Prime 2 (see my thread).

wot about FF:CC?

Actually I prefer Gc's list over Xbox's without a doubt.

dunno bout Ps2's yet.

Main reason FF:CC, MK:DD, MP2. Where's FFX-2 for PS2??

I personally prefer the GameCube's list over the Xbox's also, but I can agree with TheGame this far:

Nintendo's conference was pretty weak for the purposes of generating hype. Part of it is because there was no way they could top Mario, Metroid and Zelda all at the same show last year. Part of it was way too much information leaked before the show (imagine the crowd reaction you would have gotten if MGS: Twin Snakes had been a surprise unveiling at the show). And part of it might be Nintendo's decision to emphasize GBA connectivity although I personally think it's a wise move. And part of it might be that quite a few big games are third party ones (like Tales of Symphonia).

Nintendo just doesn't have anything show grabbing like Halo 2 or Metal Gear Solid 3. As a Nintendo fan, I'm mostly okay with that because I only demand that there be a supply of good games for me to play. But still, I get the feeling that Nintendo is saving something for Spaceworld at the expense of their show at E3.

Yeah, Nintendo's show so far has been very weak in comparison to Sony and Microsoft. What big guns does the Gamecube have that can stack up against Metal Gear Solid 3...or Halo 2...or Gran Turismo 4...or Doom III?

One of the biggest games Nintendo is boasting is in fact a glorified remake (MGS:TS)...Resident Evil 4 must be great for RE fans though. Mario Golf, according to IGN, is very disappointing and completely unpolished at this stage (the grandest stage of them all). Hopefully Nintendo will pull out a wild card in the next day or two (Mario 128, maybe?) that will steal some thunder away from S&M.

Roll on Spaceworld, if it was still around. Or have Nintendo ressurected it this year? I really don't have a clue these days as to exactly what is going on.....

:fanboy:

jk... :D

I think my main reason for saying Xbox's was better is the 8 min demo of my MOST anticipated game coming this gen... Nintendo showed um, nothing too spectacular, nothing jaw dropping, and not one video that I had to sit there and watch over and over.

:mad:

The only Xbox game that has interested me is Halo 2 and Fable (and now apparently it has co op play).

But Nintendo didn't have anything like that at the show (MP2?). Well it wasn't shown enuff.

:sneaky:
