[Phoenix Dark]

OMG NINTENDO IS GONNA ANNOUNCE MORE REHASHES CAN'T WAIT

[E-DuB]

Yoshi Island DS 2 confirmed?

[Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich]

Ninthing disappointment, crow being eaten... or both?

Find out in four hours!

[laesperanzapaz]

in which shopping mall is it being held

[Eel O'Brian]

condemned 3 for wii couldn't possibly be any worse than condemned 2

[Sho Nuff]

I watched my brother play condemned 2. it was good. i was scared and had to leave the room when he fought the oros. but on wii it will be better because it will be like you are really there!!!! swing the wii remote to punch the stinky bum!!!

[Eel O'Brian]

i'd like to swing the wiimote and punch the devs who suckered me into paying $60 for condemned 2

[Crushed]

omg i bet nintendo will release a sequel to that underwhelming third-tier bomb that i personally liked

[archie4208]

i wonder if a new zelda game will be announced 

[Crushed]

I hope another third-party dev announces a major exclusive like MH3 at last year's conference, because that was funny as hell.

[cool breeze]

Is this new punchout game confirmed?

[y2kev]

If there IS a new punchout, you know it's going to be ruined by adding in balance board or something.

[Van Cruncheon]

it is SUPER SMASH BROTHERS BRAWL: OVER BATTLE and why would Garfield the Cat be in it he is not a videogame Character?!?! Personally I am hoping it is going to have Kazuya Mishima and Jin Mishima from Tekken and also include a Clu-Clu Land Stage and also let me play as my Miis with the powers of the Mishima family!! I have a Friend who works for Nintendo who also designed the levels for the Kirby games and who got me the Wii three weeks before release and he said that the games are going to be
- Punch-Out: Mac's Revenge
- "Kid Icarus Mature" that is the internal project name, Nintendo is looking out for its Fans like I said
- Wii Chii, this is all new and totally awesome, you get to learn WU SHU by using the Balance Board and the new Chii Meter accessory, it will blow you away, now you can kick the asses of Micro$oft and $ony Fans in real-life not just on the inter net! My friend also says there is a special version of Tekken called Tekken Life where you can use the Chii Meter to BECOME a Mishima and run your own Fighting empire, it's totally real-time and comes with a special add-on that gives you better HD graphics than the Play Station 3!

That is it, true Believers will be rewarded, Micro$oft and $ony Losers will be Crying!!!!1

[Crushed]

i'm hip and like boring overrated standard jrpgs, so i'm going to hope for mother 4 and super mario rpg 2

If there IS a new punchout, you know it's going to be ruined by adding in balance board or something.

that'd be like the one legitimate use of the board

[cool breeze]

I honestly wouldn't mind a Punch out that uses the balance board and all that shit as long as it worked...which it probably won't.

And I still don't understand why people want a new Kid Icarus.

[Van Cruncheon]

punch-out games have always been pretty shitty

[Crushed]

And I still don't understand why people want a new Kid Icarus.

because of old rumors about dead phoenix from capcom being a kid icarus game

because it came out at the same time as metroid

because the art design was similar to the old nes zeldas

because it was teased in ssbm and ssbb



except the game wasn't even that good

punch-out games have always been pretty shitty

okay now that's just crazy

[demi]

i cant believe i unignored him for this

[cool breeze]

Punch Out and Super Punch Out were great.  The Hajime no Ippo game on the GBA was much better than both and played very similar, but I wouldn't mind a new one.  

[Van Cruncheon]

i only played through tyson's punch-out on the nes because i had nothing else to play at the time. i don't recall actually ENJOYING it. the snes version i rented, realized that it was all shallow trial-and-error of the most mundane variety, and promptly returned it

fighting games have evolved so very far beyond its flash-style gaming shenanigans

[Oblivion]

And I still don't understand why people want a new Kid Icarus.

I'm kinda baffled at that too. It was always the more worthless of Gunpei Yokoi's two creations (it was the software equivalent of the virtua boy).

A new Metroid however, would be something more acceptable to desire.

[cool breeze]

Punch Out was more of a rhythm game than a fighting game.  It was completely foreign from the actual sport of Boxing compared to the other NES sports games.  Oh, and even Donkey Kong Jungle Beat did Punch Out better, but I still wouldn't mind seeing a new one.

[Van Cruncheon]

A new 2D Metroid however, would be something more acceptable to desire.

fix'd

[Oblivion]

Drinky, would you like a 3D Metroid if it was in 3rd person?

[demi]

why would you want a 3d metroid period? fuckin NINTARD I HATE YOU

[Oblivion]

why would you want a 3d metroid period? fuckin NINTARD I HATE YOU

I don't really. I'd prefer a 2D one myself. I'm just saying IF they went with a 3D one, I'd like it to be in 3rd person this time.

[Van Cruncheon]

Drinky, would you like a 3D Metroid if it was in 3rd person?

only if it was made by a team that didn't suck

heck, i'd take a first-person metroid that didn't suck

[demi]

anyway they're gonna revive startropics so it's all good

[Howard Alan Treesong]

Clu Clu Land 2: Hyperclu

[cool breeze]

StarTropics is an actual series that is worth reviving.  

[Great Rumbler]

Console games  

[demi]

startropics is the only replayable nintendo game i can think of off-hand so it's clearly NOT the game they will be bringing back

[gibletsngravy]

Sarah Palin in Get a Clu-Clu Land 
Sarah Palin's Wolf Hunt 

[E-DuB]

Maybe a remake of Clash at Demonhead for the DS

[Sho Nuff]

it is SUPER SMASH BROTHERS BRAWL: OVER BATTLE and why would Garfield the Cat be in it he is not a videogame Character?!?!

come on how could u not have played this. man i hope garfield for genesis comes out on virtual console. my cousin was working on a version of garfield for jaguar but it never came out

garfield's special attack is where lasangna come down from the top of the screen and garfield eats it. then jon comes in and yeslls "GARFIELD!!!!!!!!!!!" and everyone is dazed by how loud hte voice.

[Van Cruncheon]

I am not a Garfield Fan, I like Heath Cliff!!!

[y2kev]

i want rocco from rocco's modern life in suma bura!

SUMA BURAAAA

[Van Cruncheon]

and Marmaduke the Dog, he would take Half Damage because he is so Big!!! but Heath Cliff is very tough, he is an alley Cat you know.

[Crushed]

marmaduke would devour and rape all characters simultaneously

he hungers for flesh, and all of humanity fears him

[pilonv1]

omg i cant wait

I think we will see
- square announcing FFXIII for wii
- Dragon Quest X for Wii
- Capcom announcing 5 new WII exclusive games
- Cooking Guide for Wii
- new Wii colours, I want a sexy red or black one to put with my white one!

i cant wait!

[Cormacaroni]

Alright, who fucking told him.

[tiesto]

Gimme a new Wrecking Crew plzzzzzz... and of course StarTropics, Mach Rider and Kid Icarus. But who am I kidding? It's gonna be another Star Fox or F-Zero or Pikmin or some Nintendo series I don't really give a shit about. I wouldn't mind a Punch Out w/Balance Board. How could you hate original Punch Out... it's got battling against ethnic stereotypes, the nicca stole my bike scene, an awesome theme song, challenging pattern-memorization gameplay, and a cool soundtrack.

[pilonv1]

[cool breeze]

The conference is gonna start out with "WATASHI WA CAMMIE"

[tiesto]

Sarah Palin is gonna be the surprise guest... along with McCain.

The primary audience for Wii - soccer moms and old coots.

And supposedly there's the whole Nintendo fan = Conservative bit.

you don't care about fuck-awesome games like f-zero but you want fuck-awful games like mach rider and kid icarus

[y2kev]

nihongo ga jozu desu neeeee

[Sho Nuff]

and Marmaduke the Dog, he would take Half Damage because he is so Big!!! but Heath Cliff is very tough, he is an alley Cat you know.

I want Dennis the Menace, he would have sling shot. his special attack is shoot mr. wilson's window. then mr. wilson comes out and yells DENNIISSSSSSS!!!!!!!! but then mr wilsons wife makes u cookies. then u get your health back.

man i am just full of great ideas. i should be a designer. lets make a game company prole!!!

[pilonv1]

how long now i think my f5 key is broken lol

[Sho Nuff]

I'm really hyped for Necronesia 2

Did this shit start yet, it's 12:50 in Japan and nobody seems to be liveblogging?

[pilonv1]

its not going to start till the thread is unlocked

[Crushed]

while we wait, some choice quotes from Miyamoto Shigeru-sama, taken from IWATA ASKS MIYAMOTO: WII MUSIC EDITION

In the end, even though I was a starter on the basketball team, I quit and formed a manga club.

I suppose so. If I could actually play an instrument, I might view this game as sacrilege against true music.

I wasn't this excited when we created Super Mario Bros.

Yes, it is. Maybe I'm just turning into a crazy old man. (laughs)

godspeed, noble prince

[demi]

So when is this?

[Grecco]

Cant Wait for Emo Icarus: Matt Cassamasina Redeemed.

[drohne]

miyamoto's descent into embarrassing senility continues apace. doesn't he play the banjo or something? i guess he forgot

[cool breeze]

Matt Cassamasina is clearly sucking someone's dick at Nintendo, so a new Kid Icarus probably is true.  I mean, seriously:

[youtube=425,350]Z3p64V5PO_M[/youtube]

[Crushed]

maybe, like george lucas and hideo kojima, miyamoto's early works were all tremendously lucky flukes

he's talking about how his 2d games were influenced by the shitty manga he drew in junior high and how his 3d games like OoT and Mario 64 were influenced by asinine puppet shows he used to watch

[pilonv1]

I wasn't this excited when we created Super Mario Bros.

Nintendo's last 10 years summed up perfectly.

[drohne]

one day he's going to come into work and say 'i thought of this great new idea for a game while i was grocery shopping. it's about the learned elders of zion and the controls they exert on vegetable prices.' and everyone at nintendo is so frightened of him and his bloated reputation that they're going to produce it
