TGS officially starts on the 15th.
But today is Ninty's conference.
Also, tomorrow there will be a Sony conference (ie: a day before TGS).
And on the 15th Sony will deliver its keynote.

You're right, Japan is dead.

Xenoblade seems like something right up your alley, plus it actually came out in euroland unlike 'murkah. Play it, I only played about an hour of it but it was awesome so far.

who in the world honestly goes FUCK YES GUNDAM ON 3DS

i mean all those games that never/still haven't come out
-
...never did play MHTri all that much.
-
Now I see why Nintendo barred all foreign journalists from this event. There's jack all anyone outside of Japan would give a shit about.
-
monster hunter looks really good for the 3ds
kid icarus looks great too (graphically)
show off the second nub monster
-
Pretty underwhelming. All the interesting games got shown in a fucking montage.
Fire Emblem
Super Mario Land
Paper Mario
Bravery Default
are the only games that piqued my interest
-

Fixed.
-
uh, is this a new monster hunter?
-
This lineup is selling me on a 3DS. Even if it's all the same bullshit... but I'm not poor so whatever
-
Monster Hunter 4 on 3DS lol
looks awesome, actually. that climbing and SotC-isms are what I wanted.
-
Looks amazing holy shit. Is it exclusive too? Vita am dead if so.
-
Vitatards am cry
-
STFU
:'(
-
...looks like that's it?
-
I betcha cash it'll hit both
-
why am i watching gatchaman
-
I betcha cash it'll hit both
Nintendo bet more cash it won't
Sony was just rump roasted
-
how many people cheering all this stuff have even played a monster hunter game
-
Wow, that was fucking terrible. The only thing that got me pleasantly curious is what the firmware update will entail.
I mean, good jon on Monster Hunter 4 (not that I give a shit), but I'm starting to worry Nintendo is killing off their mid tier franchises like Warioware and Advance Wars. It made sense for marketplace failures like Fzero, but now its like all of their games in production are Mii/Mario/Pokemon stuff. I didn't even feel this was the case with the Wii, as I got stuff like the excite games, punchout, endless ocean etc.
Animal Crossing will be mine though, and I'm warming up to kid icarus.
-
even if it is on Vita and nintendo didn't bury Capcom with bags and bags of yen, the 3DS is still in a better position because 3G will undoubtedly bring people to that platform. They'll just stay for MH4.
MH4 wasn't a big surprise because Capcom roughly did the same with MH3 on the Wii.
-
Pretty underwhelming. All the interesting games got shown in a fucking montage.
Bravery Default
are the only games that piqued my interest
:rofl
-
that's what i'm saying
if you don't play monster hunter or whatever, i don't understand why it would make you excited to see it, i'd be thinking "yeahyeah okay, where's my fucking metroid"
i'm excited about the vita because i like uncharted and i like resistance, but if they announced some huge third party franchise i wasn't interested in i wouldn't give a fuck if it sold ten million vitas because i was never gonna play it anyway
i guess it is a big deal if all you care about is saleswars
-
I'm buying that pink 3DS when it comes to the US.
-
I love how everyone is freaking out over a staged MH4 vid THIS IS GONNA BE SO BIG IN JAPAN, I'M SO EXCITED
-
Sony conf starts in about 24 hours,i think.
No MH4 Vita...bad for Sony
-
I'm legitimately excited for MH4. Don't care about MH3G, but MH4 has what I wanted from the series.
I think Dragon's Dogma on 360 looks cool too. Both it and MH4 are like that old SOTC/Nico video where a team took down a colossus together by climbing it and shit.
Sony conf starts in about 10 hours,i think.
No MH4 Vita...bad for Sony
is it 10 hours? gaf chart says 12 am eastern tomorrow, so just under 24 hours.

Where's my metroid/punchout/excite/rhythmheaven/advancewars/warioware/pokemon/fzero/artstyle/pikmin 3ds gams :(. Not even possible estore releases? No gba virtual console? Are we EVER gonna get messaging/invites?
:( :( :(
I guess they spent all their development budgets on Monster Hunter moneyhats.
-
linkzg: that's totally understandable, you are a fan/player of the games
i am talking about all the fistpumpers who are never gonna play these games acting like it's some sort of personal victory
i guess if you owned nintendo stock or something
if the only things coming to vita were final fantasy and kingdom hearts and (insert jrpg franchise) i'd just think "well, saved myself $250"
i guess i am trying to fathom getting excited over something you never intend to play, and that's probably a fruitless exercise
-
Ravery Revolt :bow
Nintendo bringing music games to the hardcore :rock
-
is it 10 hours? gaf chart says 12 am eastern tomorrow, so just under 24 hours.
damn :-[
oh well
-
So MH4 isn't going to the Weeooo? Huh.
-
now, on the other hand, if miyamoto walked onstage wearing a cowboy outfit and twirling a lasso while spinning anecdotes about playing cowboys and indians as a child, and how they just signed an exclusive deal with rockstar for a portable red dead, i'd be making the dookie face and buying a 3ds tomorrow
-
There was several titles that interest me.
Either way, even if nothing was of any interest to me, as far as planning a conference out, and pleasing investors? Nintendo hit that right of the park.
-
beyond lame
this Nintendo is worse than the one during GC era - we got at least Metroids and Pikims then
bu bu bu Mario EVERYTHING :hyper
-
I'm legitimately excited for MH4. Don't care about MH3G, but MH4 has what I wanted from the series.
Same here. The series can finally graduate some of its rusty designs. What I saw was a huge step forward. I honestly never thought Capcom would bother with, since they seem to be able to sell millions just by merely adding monsters, quests and weapons.
-
SD Gundam G Generation 3D sounds awe-- oh yeah it's fucking region locked FUCK YOU NINTENDO
-
Is there any footage of MH4 on the internet yet?
-
MH4 being handheld only is interesting.

I have no interest in the series but it would be pretty funny if they showed a non-scripted MH4 for Vita that makes 3DS MH4 look like an N64 game. Honestly, watching balloons deflate can be enjoyable.

It could turn into another Sengoku Basara 3 situation... "oooooh! Wii exclusive OMGOMGOMOGMG...... wait, PS3 version? Oh... we don't care anymore."

What happened to Mach Rider and hte new Baten Kaitos games. I hope the namco bandai conference has the game :(.

3DS gets MH4.
Vita gets MH4: Portable G.
Problem, ninthings?
If they were really moneyhatted you wont see it on vita at the Sony conference. :/

the second nub thing works with Resident Evil Revelations, Kingdom Hearts, Ace Combat, MGS3, and other stuff in Japanese I can't read.
Also requires a single AAA battery and releasing December 10th along with Monster Hunter 3G
V
-
1500 yen, works with RE:Rev, KH, Ace Combat, MGS3, Monster Hunter, Sangoku Musou VS, and no Nintendo titles which is kinda odd.
and it requires 4 AAA batteries. haha.
Back to the Gameboy era. :lol
-
Yeah, business-wise, for Japan, that conference was *exactly* what it needed to be. MH4 is an obvious money hat, but honestly, Nintendo needs to start throwing money hats around and for a Japanese handheld, that was probably the best thing they could've bought for themselves.
I'm not a big MH guy, but I do give them a try as they come out, hoping one of these days it'll catch. Still, I saw a few things at that conference that looked interesting (little of it new though). As a 3DS owner, the conference was good because it shows that Nintendo aren't just giving up on the damned thing.
Of course, it's not hard to see what Capcom is up to. MH4 will be 3DS exclusive (and that's absolutely great news for Nintendo), but MHP4th? Well, that's a whole different game, y'see. Wonder if they can convince Sony to moneyhat them for that?
Do you see them going for that route instead of a multiplatform releases of MH on portables? I'm still trying to figure out whether MH4 is exclusive or not, but knowing Nintendo, and how they handled Tri, it probably is. This scenario would seriously hurt Vita in Japan right out of the gate, that even a late MH4 port or 4th announcement won't allow it to bounce back as fast as it should.

yeah and those games sold like ass. Makes sense from Nintendo's perspective to give them the heave ho
-
Thanks to MH4 announcement dizzying Kagari, she's getting all leaky and saying that a FF RPG is being developed for Vita, but she's not sure if it'll be announced tomorrow or not.
I think if Capcom can run two separate MH series, each one selling millions of units with each installment, AND collect exclusivity moneyhats, they absolutely will do that.
Sounds like Capcom. The only victim is going to be Sony if their moneyhats are big enough to control release schedules.
-
the free four swords is the best thing shown
single player, FREE, DSi or 3DS, FREE, retro stages:

nah, shes just a straight up Sony spinning bullshitter. A real witch
-
Is Kagari actually connected? Everything seems to be ultra vague and then "oh no , i've said too much!"
As of late? I'd wager so. At least for all things SE/FF. Still, the old Kagari didn't know shit, so maybe she's channeling her older self under the pressure.
-
She probably started connecting with her sources.

hey nerds i'm going to an industry party tonight and need to talk about this shit for a few hours like i give a crap
what do i need to know other than Bravely Default (which should be good for at least an hour)
-
Kohler still hasn't blogged about the event. I bet he needed a really long shower after that conference.
-
FFVII:R for Vita would make me weep
Keep the dream alive, I guess
-
Real talk: Not a single FF-related Vita announcement would get me excited. Maybe the small sales-whore inside of me will, but nothing more. Same goes for the MGS and RE series. I just stopped giving a fuck mostly. On the other hand, MH is a new found interest, and in my book no Sony announcement will top it.
Maybe a Tactics Ogre 2 will mend my broken heart, maybe.
-
Kohler might be pretty pissed off, I heard they weren't letting any foreign press into that press conference (and ALL of them were in town for TGS).
-
i am actually meeting Kohler tonight , i'm sure he'll be excited. Seemed to be lots to be excited for if you are a nintendo fan really. They did a good job on that front.
Eh, I like mario platformers, but seeing kart/olympics/papermario/tennis/luigismansion all lined up one after the other is very depressing. Tomadokakukepadoshi Connection and Style Savvy aint my demographic, but I can respect them.
-
Real talk: Not a single FF-related Vita announcement would get me excited.
I'd say a new tactics game would be awesome, but then again I wouldn't know how ya felt about ffta2. Anything otherwise... snore .

This is actually what I did last TGS, had a great time!

so i watched this Monster Hunter teaser
3 mins of scripted nonsense featuring some knight-looking dude running away from a dragon in low-poly environments, ho hum. Not seeing the big deal. I thought co-op play was the hook?
-
Yeah, it doesn't look good from a technical standpoint, but a lot of the ideas they showcased (platforming, fighting while climbing, mounting enemies, etc) is fairly new to a franchise that was in desperate need of some new, action-oriented mechanics. So it finally feels like they're releasing a real sequel.
-
3 mins of scripted nonsense featuring some knight-looking dude running away from a dragon in low-poly environments, ho hum. Not seeing the big deal. I thought co-op play was the hook?
the announcement itself is key, yes.
But yeah, it was interesting to see sporks, Johntv etc all lose their shit when it was so clearly a single player scripted action sequence which is about as far removed from the organic gameplay experience of Monster Hunter as it could possibly be.
And err, clearly a '4' was inevitable at some point. Having it be announced for the shittiest platform imaginable (bar perhaps the Wii) is a win in what way?
-
I'm fairly certain it was in engine assets stuff spliced with cg snippets intended to imply some new mechanics. I doubt its indicative of more than environmental destruction and a new climbing mechanic. I remember Tri had similar marketing/media regarding its ecosystem features.
-
"yo- yo- you guys just don't get it!"

It didnt get announced for the psp, so I don't know what you're talking about sir.

surely i don't have to paint the full picture as to why this is a win for certain people?
i'll play it regardless if it ends up on 3DS only and not bleat like a baby but yeah - i don't get the flag waving at this point given the PSV seems to be infinitely more suited to a MH game. That said - i will be extremely surprised if we do not see MH support in at least two forms for Sony.
Indeed you do not have to raise your paintbrush, sir, for that was the fabled RHETORICAL QUESTION, as rarely seen on the internet as sarcasm or a misspelled 'your'

I'm not 100% sure, but I think shots have been fired.

i would be uber excited for bravely default if it wasn't for the incredibly stupid title and the fact that 4 warriors of light sucked... hard! :fbm
and blargh fire emblem,worst srpg ever! >:( they even changed the artist which was like the only thing i liked about it
monster hunter 4,i like,i seriously couldn't care less that it looks like a n64 game or whatever but....
1) i can see a pretty big chance of them fucking online,i mean where the heck i'm supposed to attach my usb keyboard on that thing?
2) it's capcom,there are going to be at least 3 different other upgraded port on sony console's,none of them is going to leave japan so might as well bite on this one :smug

One of the biggest surprises out of Nintendo's media event in Japan was the announcement that Monster Hunter 4 would be released on the 3DS. Understand that, for Japan, this is somewhere near the magnitude of when Final Fantasy XIII was announced for the Xbox 360 -- a major coup. But why would Capcom shift a PlayStation Portable-exclusive series to the 3DS, especially with a game that sold millions on Sony portables? Money.
Katsuhiko Ichii, Capcom's managing corporate officer, explained the decision to Thompson Financial News (via Gamasutra). "Due to high development cost of titles for Vita, we have decided to switch the platform to which we release our Monster Hunter 4 title," Ichii said. While it remains unclear whether Monster Hunter 4 is now a 3DS exclusive, or simply being released on both 3DS and Vita, this quote seems to suggest the former. Either way, the fact remains: the most popular new portable in Japan just got that much more powerful.

Dun dun dunnnn.
-
Yeah, I was even the one who exposed him. But you fell for it. Admit it, you're not as smart as you thought!
Still funny though.
-
Wasn't AAI2 released around the time Capcom stopped giving a crap about the DS, though? By that time, they shifted most of their focus to the rampage of console releases, and dilution of their IPs.

In a subdued Tokyo conference hall on Tuesday, an appearance by the company's star game designer, Shigeru Miyamoto, wielding a toy sword and shield raised a laugh, but a series of 3DS game images depicting Miyamoto and Iwata as a pair of young lovers was met with silence.
That's what those images were? :rofl

Holy shit. The tomodachi avatars were supposed to be Iwata and Miyamoto? I had no idea, but I gotta give it to them, tough crowd. Not a single chuckle was uttered.
-
Maybe Miyamoto segued into the bit verbally but holy fuck that was awkward as fuck
Maybe that's why their stock dropped 5%. 'Dat forbidden homosexual relationship.
Edit: I mean Iwata. These fucking names.
-
Hmm, nothing too interesting it sounds like... I'm not that big on MonHan, but Bravery Default sounds kinda interesting I guess. Still nothing making me want to run out and buy a 3DS.
-
Was 4WoL worth picking up? I never bothered with it, but people elsewhere were jizzing over the rumor, before it was formally announced.

Was 4WoL worth picking up? I never bothered with it, but people elsewhere were jizzing over the rumor, before it was formally announced.
it tries really hard to play like classic final fantasy,the music is all retro,there is a job system a-la FF3,the plot includes highlight like "rescue the princess from the evil dragon" and also it looks really pretty
most people seems annoyed by the fact that each character can only carry 15 items (this include equipment and also spells as you need a book to cast the relative spell) and also by the fact that for the first bit of the game character leaves and enter your party quite often (which make the 15 items only even more annoying) but personaly the real problem i have with the game is that it just doesn't do a good job at being classics
i put the blame on the combat system,you see there are no MP and instead each character gets 2 action point each turn and each action they do consume a certain number of AP,this ultimately translate into spamming all the special skills you want and in fact after getting a certain job,you barely have no reason to not just murder everything in your path
the way you develop the jobs is also very annoying,each job needs a certain number of gems but there are quite a lot of different kind of gems and it's not uncommon to end having something like... 20 rubies and not a single emerald or shit like that
the boss are totaly unbalanced,there are a lot of gear to protect you from elemental attack but the way it's done,it's ridiculous,a character with the right equipment will receive a great total of 1 damage from every boss attack while the remaining party member will die as soon as the boss fart,it's really really really stupid and this might be the first game where sometimes going solo is EASIER than using your full team
i guess if you really really really like classic final fantasy you might want to bite,it's bound to be better than that stupid FF4 half-assed sequel at least
-
After Years is awesome. Play it on PSP, Shah.
-
Oh shit, I had no idea After Years was included in the Complete Collection. I'll definitely buy it and even go through FFIV again. The DS remake was a mixed bag for me.
-
I still need to pick up the FFIV PSP Collection. FFIV is my favorite game of all time.

Wait, what? People think those two avatars from Tomodachi collection are Iwata and Miyamoto? They're Miis of famous Japanese comedians that help promote the 3DS, idiot journalists.

Nintendo President Satoru Iwata is usually the one conducting interviews for Nintendo, and has become well known for his positive perspective and easy-going personality as the host of Nintendo.com's on-going Iwata Asks column.
Whenever the tables are turned on him, though, it seems his anger can ignite in a flash.
"Absolutely not" was the President's response when Japanese newspaper Nikkei asked him the question that investors have been hammering on for months now – will Nintendo shift development resources to mobile gaming and start developing for smartphones?
"This is absolutely not under consideration," replied Iwata. "If we did this, Nintendo would cease to be Nintendo. Having a hardware development team in-house is a major strength. It's the duty of management to make use of those strengths. It's probably the correct decision in the sense that the moment we started to release games on smartphones we'd make profits. However, I believe my responsibility is not to short term profits, but to Nintendo's mid and long term competitive strength."
:wtf

i don't think it would hurt them to release a few of the nes games that everyone's already bought 5 times over
-
he's not wrong.
they're not having their best times of late but generally speaking Nintendo make more money than any other video game company, and they've been doing that for 25 years now, and a big part of that is their hardware business.
see, when you sell hardware at a profit rather than a loss, you *make* money from it instead of praying you recoup your losses from software license fees. it's in nintendo's long-term interest to maintain a hardware division, and it's in the long-term interest of their hardware that they keep their games fully exclusive to their hardware.
the big mistake being made there right now is not partnering with a phone manufacturer to make a nintendo-brand smart phone, with its own OS and whatnot.
The last point you make is why I see that as a wtf. Keeping their head in the sand and ignoring the new market out there because "this is what we do, and if we didn't do it we wouldn't be Nintendo" isn't in the best long term interest of the company because their section of the market is shrinking and facing tougher competition.

You really think that's a good idea?

haven't played Tri on the Wii outside of the demo, but it looks a lot nicer than the PSP games.
-
it beats sitting around, hoping that smartphones will go away, oblivion.
Or having devices that don't cater to the segment of the market with the most disposable income
-
Fuck smarthones they should introduce skype to their systems like pc's have.
-
hasn't sony released a smartphone too? i don't see that getting much attention

I'd LOVE to see Nintendo to take a crack at making their own smartphone OS :lol What a piece of shit it would be
-
Symbian sells best, Android sells worst?
-
Yeah, I was being a little facetious. Phone OS warz are stupid
-
haha, for Oscars sanity, I said console fegs are worse. I dunno if I agree though, I even have phone OS fanboy acquaintances on FB that get into flamewars... On fb.... wtf?
-
its a tough call. Both are pretty insufferable.
Go Xbox!
