Volition announced their new game Agents of Mayhem which takes place in the Saints Row universe
wasnt impressed either by ea, only thing that interest me is Bf1
I have to say Quake Championship and Skyrim Remastered have already made Bethesda's conference way better than EAs, but hot damn, I'm still hoping they pull out Elder Scrolls VI. I will lose my shit if they do!
not impressed with bethesda, sadly...
Only things i like are some new fallout stuff and maybe dishonored 2 and skyrim, of course

That would be better way to end this after all this Dishonored 2 stuff. I just want it cause I'm getting bored lol
day 1 of E3 2016: mostly shit
day 1 of E3 2016: mostly shit
Actually the 14th is supposed to be the first day. :P
Been at work all day so everything you guys posted and announced, I just read ... and so far, nothing appeals. I do have one question however ... is Titanfall 2 XBox only still? I heard 2 was going to be on the PS4 as well.

PS4, Xbone, and PC.
Bethesda was a step down from last year; and it was always going to be.
Last year they had two pillars; Doom and Fallout 4. Flagship titles from their flagship studios.
Neither of those studios was going to have a game ready to go this year.
That's why Quake: Champions was just a teaser trailer and why Bethesda only had Fallout 4 DLC and a Skyrim Remaster to show off.
This conference had one pillar and that was Dishonored 2; and it's not as big a pillar as the two we seen last year'; they likely over done it too tbh.
However Dishonored 2 looks awesome.
And the Prey reboot looks really interesting.
Not to mention they teased another Wolfenstein that one would presume will be the big reveal at Quakecon.
Seen some suggest they should have done a conference, I don't agree, just think it should have been shorter.
Also I'm convinced that if they'd wanted to, they could have shown Wolfenstein off as well.
Separate studios work on the main line Elder Scrolls games and Elder Scrolls Online.I have to say Quake Championship and Skyrim Remastered have already made Bethesda's conference way better than EAs, but hot damn, I'm still hoping they pull out Elder Scrolls VI. I will lose my shit if they do!

Sadly this whole conference has been boring after the Quake announcement. I got a little excited for the Skyrim Remaster, but then remembered if you've been playing Skyrim on the PC you've had these visual upgrades and way, way more for years now. Sadly, I think they've been too busy trying to make Elder Scrolls Online more appealing rather than developing a new single player Elder Scrolls games :/
I don't think it was a lack of material, feel it was down to wanting to save it for another day.Bethesda was a step down from last year; and it was always going to be.

All they had to do was show a CG trailer like they did for Prey and Quake Champions. They didn't need to Dishonored 2 to take up something like an entire 1/3rd of their event. I'm glad that it seems like they might be teasing Wolfenstein 2 as I really want it. I'm hoping that it's being saved to be showed off tomorrow during one of the shows like the PC Game Show. Quakecon is very possible too.
Non-Dudebro gamers may be sick to death of seeing those yearly EA sports games but their investors love them for being the cash cows that they are I'm sure. ;)I like sports and I buy Fifa very year (mind this past year I bought it very late).

The story mode in Fight Night was good fun. And it seems similar to that.Non-Dudebro gamers may be sick to death of seeing those yearly EA sports games but their investors love them for being the cash cows that they are I'm sure. ;)
Oh we know exactly why they are there, doesn't mean we still can't be annoyed that they take up the majority of EA's events lol
Plus each year they devote so much time to them, but seem to barely do much with them because it is a yearly release. The thing nowadays is apparently adding a story to the game, which I'm sure will go swimmingly after that hilariously bad NBA2K16 one by Spike Lee lol

I couldn't find much info on Kadokawa's press conference, so if someone finds info on that, let me know.
lets hope for a better day today

i gotr up early for this shit. i went to bed at like 3am too.
god damn it, just bought xbox one not that long ago too
And right off the bat, Xbox One S reveal. Holy shit, 300 bucks for the Xbox One S? That's an impressive price for a straight upgrade. That's almost an enticing price for such a vast improvement. I feel bad for anyone that bought an Xbone in the past month or so lol

Pretty sure the S isn't the upgrade model, it's just a slim One w/ a new controller. The rumor was they are announcing 2 models, the second being the upgrade that's coming out next year.
Are they seriously showing us Minecraft footage? In 2016??
Man, this press conference has been a lot of nothing so far.
Why is this a thing? Why would they do this? I say this liking Minecraft. There is no good damn reason to spend like 10 minutes promoting Minecraft lol
Inside, from the developer of Limbo, out June 29th. Limbo is free on Xbox One.
Have they shown anything new really? I'm depending on you guys to update me as I'm at work and every other site here is blocked. LOL. :P

No new games yet. Oh, I guess Forza Horizon 3, but it's Forza, so yeah...
Sigh...
Is the new Xbox One Slim only available in white?
Sigh...
Is the new Xbox One Slim only available in white?
Seemingly so, but they announced controller customization to like any variation of colors.
$80 for a controller??? $90 for one engraved with your Gamer Tag??? :o
Scalebound! OH YES! WINDOWS 10! Screw you Xbox One! I don't need you!
Scalebound! OH YES! WINDOWS 10! Screw you Xbox One! I don't need you!
This is what I'm thinking. Everything coming that's exclusive they've said will be Windows 10 as well. I'd rather just upgrade my PC to play the few exclusives I'm interested in, because I'd get more use out of that overall than a 'Bone.
I know i'm a bit late (i watch it with french subtitles so i have a little delay) but did i just heard it wrong or did they seriously spoil Ori and Quantum Break just after the Dead Rising 4 video ? I hope not, i hope it was just some pictures of the games and not related of what the woman was saying if not i would be pretty disappointed since i should receive the definitive edition of Ori and the Blinded Forest tomorrow... I stop myself from watching any video from the E3 now, a big Thanks to you Microsoft >:(

So...is the Scorpio a new system entirely or an incremental step-up of the Xbox One?
They brought in the bit about the one creature dying I think in Ori, but that's at the very start of the game. It's not spoilers. It's in the intro of the game and what kicks off the adventure. Literally like the first 5 minutes. Not sure about Quantum Break, didn't hear what they said and never played it.
E3? More like Z3! Get it? Because all of the z's mean it's boring enough to put me to sleep!
HEY-O!
So...is the Scorpio a new system entirely or an incremental step-up of the Xbox One?Incremental. Basically Xbox One Point Five. Honestly, it sounds like Scorpio is going to make a VR enabled Xbox one, so yeah, you can play all games on all systems, but you can only do VR on Scorpio type of thing... or X1/X1S will limp through future games after Holiday 2017

Hey....you're the guy who owns an Xbox One, remember? :P
I got an email from Ubisoft this morning saying that the new South Park game was supposed to be at MS' show, but the only thing Ubi showed was that Division add-on. And I also thought the lack of Crackdown 3 was odd, especially since last I heard it's supposed to come out this year.

Gears 4 didn't thrill me, but the franchise hasn't grabbed my attention since the 3rd title. I'll play it eventually like I did with Judgement.
recore, I still don't understand the game, so I'll again wait for more info to make a decision on how I feel.
Forza Horizon 3 is a must have for me, I love the Horizon series.
Minecraft going cross-play and Microsoft in generally pushing cross-play and even cross-buy is really cool. I'm just concerned that cross-buy is going to be limited to digital only, or you have to somehow use your X1 disc on your W10 PC to play on PC.
Halo Wars 2 is neat, but I'm not an RTS guy.
I don't understand the point when companies release smaller systems other than maybe it is cheaper to produce.
State of Decay 2 looks interesting, but I still need to finish the first one.
Sea of Thieves looks entertaining, but it also looks online only, so I'm out.
Dead Rising 4 looks awesome to me and I'm all in. Especially since it looks like it's going back to the first game, and I didn't get to play that one.
Scalebound doesn't particularly interest me, but I'm not into dragons and such, but Platinum usually makes great games.
Tekken 7 with Akuma, I really thought they were going to show Tekken X Street Fighter.
Gwent card game, no clue, still haven't played the Witcher games.
We happy few caught my wife's attention and I guess we are buying that early access when it goes up.
Custom controllers directly from Microsoft is kind of cool but with a $80 price tag (without engraving) that is an easy pass.
I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff

I think it's probably a safe assumption to say that the developers can't get the cloud-based destruction to work properly. What other reason would there be for this game to be in development hell for several years now?

Updated the main post with all relevant information from the event I think. If I missed anything important, let me know and I'll try to add it. Honestly, I'm quite happy with the Microsoft event. Despite two new Xbox One consoles, nearly all their exclusive games are coming to PC. Still through Windows 10, which isn't great, but I'll take it over having any more exclusives stuck to the console.
For me personally, I was stoked to see Recore, Dead Rising 4, Scalebound, and State of Decay 2.
PC Gaming Show up next. I'll be posting stuff from this one too.

Ill be skipping PC gaming show, last years seriously put me to sleep haha.
idk, having to get w10 and digital only is the brick wall stopping me from considering going pc for these games.

I think with the exception of Dead Rising & Forza Horizion, we have pretty much the same feelings on the announcements (I don't care for Forza's money scheme). Sea of Thieves gave me a glimmer of hope for a real Rare treat, but online multiplayer only crushed it for me. Everything they announced is also on PC! What the hell? There is basically zero incentive to buy an Xbox One for exclusives now.
Yep, MS has announced that Crackdown 3 is pushed to 2017:

Reading between the lines of that PR-speak, it sounds like they're definitely having issues.

Wait, you mean these will only be sold through MS' Windows 10 store? I was thinking they just required you to have the W10 OS, but that you would be able to buy the games on Steam or wherever. :-\

There are some that will be on Steam, but certain ones like Dead Rising 4, Sea of Thieves, and some others likely to be Windows 10 Store Exclusive.
Vampyr. There's that Vampire game you wanted where you play as one lol. Third person action game. 2017 Release.
Killing Floor Incursion, VR experience. Super Hot coming to Oculus...Oculus Touch? I don't know what Oculus Touch is.
Tyranny from Obsidian. Isometric RPG.
I can guarantee you any of the games that you get an X1 and PC copy of are exclusive to the W10 store, or at least that PC copy is a W10 store copy.
The PC show is still going on right now lol I'm going to be doing double duty till it is over lol

why would they let 2 shows run into each ohter like that
They're getting the Just Dance crap out of the way in the beginning at Ubi. Good. :P
Eh, they all do that tho. That Pirate game in MS' show was 100% fake co-op acting. Poorly done too.
Star Trek VR game - possibly the first VR game that has really piqued my interest! TNG it looks like, they have the original actors.
EDIT: Or maybe they just have them playing it...either way, looks VERY cool

Seems cool, but all this VR stuff just seems like such small one off thing or party experiences. It could just end up being "STAR TREK VR: PRESS ALL THE BUTTONS: THE GAME" It's still neat as I loved The Next Generation and that era of Star Trek, but I'm so unsure of almost all VR experiences.
Oh crap, is this For Honor? It's a post-apocalyptic medieval game? This just jumped way up for me.
Very interesting combat and the game looks real good. The ultimate Valentines Day gift in 2017 lol

I'm upset that the US isn't getting the San Francisco Edition of Watch Dogs 2 (apparently - no one has it listed). I have no interest in that dumb robot, but I'd like a statue of Marcus to go along with my statue of Aiden. Oh well.
Microsoft just announced Phantom Dust is being remastered for X1 and W10Remastered? They announced a reboot previously but then the developer shut down but they said the project was still going.
did anyone else notice the deer's antlers Glowing?
DAMN!!! Sony is fucking killing it again, this year! Almost non-stop games the whole time, and almost all of them actually look good!!!
Freakin Resident Evil too!!!!!!
Kojima! Norman Reedus is back!
enjoy the Rage Fighterpilot
At this point Nintendo is going to have to show off a Ocarina of Time tier Zelda game to win this year's E3 or surprise us with a lot of cool new games that are unannounced. My money is on Sony winning E3 again though. Well done Sony :)
Just watched the entire 2 hour Sony presentation. It was amazing. Here's my take:
Abzu - weird little water tranquility game. I never got into the Journey style of game and this one seems to fall right into it.
Bound - omgwtf? Strange ballerina game but oddly appealing looking.
Hawken - Mech fps ... not much else to say.
Pyre - Errrr some sort of hell blitzball looking game. Most unusual trailer ever.
Eagle flight - VR flying eagles that shoot ... whatever.
Watch dogs 2 - Looks cleaner and more interesting than the first
COD Infinite warfare - COD in space ... sigh
God of War - Nice WRPG aspect to the game. Going to be amazing
Days gone - Biker zombie hell
Last guardian - Release date announced. 10/25/16. Still looks as good as last year
Horizon - Jurassic park meets Star Wars. Top choice for me in this line up for sure.
Detroit - Cyber CSI type of game. Peaked my interest.
RE VII - VR game with definite potential
Farpoint - On the fence with this one. Alien VR look.
Battlefront VR = no thanks.
Batman VR = Hope it turns out good. Was nothing to see so far.
FFXV VR = Dont think Im going to try this part of the game. Too distracting.
Crash 1-3 remaster/Skylanders Imaginators = Some of the same. Will probably bring in some new people to Skylanders.
Lego Star wars = Again, more of the same.
Death Stranding (Kojima's game) = No idea what to make of this ... was merely a tease showing the main protagonist.
Spiderman = A Marvel Arkham game. Im excite.
The Resident Evil 7 demo is basically just PT. Like it comes down to multiple types of the same ending and little tricks and things to find. At this point, the demo is either not beatable or there's a very deep secret that hasn't been found.
At this point Nintendo is going to have to show off a Ocarina of Time tier Zelda game to win this year's E3 or surprise us with a lot of cool new games that are unannounced. My money is on Sony winning E3 again though. Well done Sony :)
Even with the greatest looking Zelda ever, it's just one game compared to quite the swath of impressive games revealed by Sony. They won hands down, no contest.
*EDIT*
Main page updated!
Sony completely killed it. And I was right! Kojima is making a horror game starring Norman Reedus! Called it months ago ctracy!!!I still don't think it's a horror game.

The Sony conference blew me away. I'll admit I'm partial to Sony, but I was expecting this year to be quiet. Not many new game announcements except for VR stuff - which I expected to be like the Move games they first showed off. Figured I'd come out of this E3 not anticipating too much more than I already was.
I tuned into the show late, because for some reason I got confused with my time conversion and thought it started at 9:00 CST. I turned it on at 8:30, right in the middle of the Detroit trailer. Looked interesting, but I haven't been a fan of past Quantic Dreams games so I'm always wary of stuff they show. This one did look like a marked improvement over their past games tho, especially in the acting dept.
Then the next trailer started. Hrm, horror game - looks new. New IP, I mean. No existing IP crossed my mind that it could have been - SH is dead, and...what else could this possibly be? Definitely showing VR, not sure I'm up to playing a game like this in VR. Song starts, trailer is building to an end... RESIDENT EVIL!?!? Mind. Blown.
From there it was just non-stop. The VR stuff didn't look like party game crap shovelware - they were actual IPs with signs of real effort put behind them. Maybe many of them were short experiences, but still - that's ok. Even tho we didn't see any footage from Batman, the Rocksteady logo at the end gave me confidence in that one. X-Wing in VR? Yes, please! :) Then they showed another space game, didn't look familiar to me at all (because I had ignored all the hubub over the new CoD, as I usually do). Dogfighting to fighting in space to a fps on a space station? Definitely looks cool. CoD?? Hrm, well, that one's on my radar now. Then Crash 1-3 remakes from the ground up? Awesome, surprised there's not more hype over this, but maybe it's just because there was SO MUCH GOOD shown! A Spider-man game - ahh, this is where they start coastin...made by Insomniac??? Oh, HELL yes! Days Gone took a very similar concept as TLoU and made what appears to be a very different game - cool. Absolutely interested.
Then I went back & watched the beginning of the show that I had missed. I'm hyped for a GoW game. Might not sound like much, but I've been one of the series' biggest detractors since the second one. This game looks like everything I had wished they'd do with the series and then some! The Days Gone trailer, still awesome. Horizon I was already hyped for, but that gameplay kicked it up to 11. My wife said we'll probably have to fight over that one - she liked that there was a female main character in what she said is the type of game that typically has a male main character.
Just amazing, start to finish. If I had to pick one thing to criticize, the only thing I could find would be the Lego Star Wars trailer because that game is practically out already. But then jumped from game to game so quickly that who could complain? It was over before you had a chance to get annoyed, and they were on to something else awesome. OH! And the Kojima game! Awesome reveal. He had said a little while back that he's working on a triple-A action title for Sony, so that's what I expect the genre to be (unless he flat out lied, which I wouldn't put past him - he IS sneaky ;) ).
EA Conference - didn't watch / no score
Microsoft Conference - 2/5, being generous because I *have* seen worse. Practically everything was known already, and little of it was impressive to me. Interested in a handful of the games they showed, but for PC.
Ubisoft Conference - 4/5, more info on several games I was already interested in plus a very nice reveal of a new IP in Steep
Sony Conference - 10/5, they destroyed it and completely blew away any expectations I had. They made me seriously regret canceling my VR preorder, and that's something I didn't think was possible.
What time is the Nintendo thing today?
I never did preorder the VR system and really, I'm cool with waiting until tax time when I won't feel so guilty about dropping $400 or more. But yeah, the games looked very polished and not cheap. The X-Wing flying looked bad-ass. Sony was really pushing the Star Wars thing which clicked with me. So did the Spider-Man game reveal. Are Sony and Disney teamed-up here because it sure seems that way. They are riding the Civil War and Star Wars hype train!
I've actually seen a few sites talking about how Microsoft destroyed everyone at their E3 conference. I can't figure out how as it was a murky hardware reveal about the best looking pixels ever seen. Whatever the hell that means. ::)
The MS show was nowhere near the best, not sure how anyone could come to that conclusion. Heck, they spent 10-15 mins talking about & showing Minecraft. ???
I left for work right after my last post on here. I half hoped to get some DQ info (not sure if Square Enix still has anything to announce). But did not expect any of the God of War info yet. :D
Nice to get a release date on Last guardian only a full year later ::)
Impressive really. Fully open world, cooking, what seems almost like a type of crafting or item creation. You can chop down trees and they react with proper physics, so you can create a tree bridge over a gap if you want. The gimmick is the book and seems to be what you use to interact with certain things. Link primarily wore the blue we've seen, but I also saw him wear silver armor with possibly sheikah designs around the cloth, just shorts for swimming at one point, and I thought another. The game has a more stylized look than I was almost expecting. Kinda something like Skyward Sword and Wind Waker abit. He used multiple weapons, with only one seeming rather proper as a spear with that design that they showed in the magic arrows in that old reveal trailer. There was a curved sword and a regular spear that he wielded. He can also climb what looked literally anywhere.
There looks like there might be some voice acting in the game according to the Japanese trailer.

So....Zelda is finally catching up to what all other open world games have been doing for the last ten years? Got it. ::)
Alright, well they're showing what feels like an eternity of Pokemon, so I'm done with that show. Good job Nintendo - 1/5.
i still want zelda, wish they wouyld show more then just zelda and pokemon though
Zelda or Xenoblade Chronicles X (now with more traveling and wide open spaces) ?
Don't be so cynical lol The climbing aspect actually seems pretty unique, being that you can apparently climb anywhere, and the physics of things like trees and rocks could lend themselves to new puzzle possibilities.
Pssh, out of here with all that you old curmudgeon! The joyous wonder of Zelda needs not thy cynical tomfoolery!
But yeah, it's not new to the gaming world, but it still looks fantastic. It's the breath...heh...of fresh hair the series seems to have needed.
Up next, finally going to get the details on Zelda.

Sony I think clearly "won", but Nintendo has nailed it for Zelda. They are showing off the "Shrines" you can find all over the world, which are basically mini puzzle dungeons, though there are combat ones, and are of varying size. I love all the features the Sheikah Slate has. When pulling it out and going to use it for like a telescope, it is almost exactly a gamepad, which has me wondering if the NX will have something similar to the Wii U.
Nice to finally get a release date for The Last Guardian; game looks super sad though :( Almost makes me skeptical to play it. ha

It wouldn't do the previous titles justice if it doesn't make you have the feels by the end. its a game ive been waiting for since my original preorder back probably in 2008 when the pre orders first went up.
Nintendo showing off that shirtless Link likeOMG and the girls on the Nintendo stream playing are kind of pervy about it too... and I have nothing against that, it's kind of endearing.

For the Amiibo collector's, there are a lot more coming. There are three Zelda amiibos for the new game. There is also a series 2 batch of Mario ones that include Daisy, Rosalina, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Waluigi, Warior, and Boo. Up on Amazon.No, the wolf link amiibo works slightly differently than what you are saying. With no data he has 3 hearts yes, but if you have data from Twilight Princess, he will have the same amount of hearts saved from Twilight Princess, he will disappear if he runs out of health regardless.

Interesting to note, while we don't know what the Breath of the Wild amiibos do, they have said what the Wolf Midna amiibo does, which is that you get a wolf or maybe Wolf Link as an NPC partner to help you hunt and attack. He gets three hearts. If you have Twilight Princess HD save data on it, he apparently won't disappear once the hearts go away.
Paper Mario: Color Splash launches on October 7th.
*EDIT*
Updated the main page with all the relevant new news for Nintendo and will update it if there are anymore, since it seems to be a trickle of information throughout the day.
...Thanks, I will definitely watch these later.
I'd buy it
Allegedly Bulletstorm is getting a remaster for X1 releasing next Spring.

Ever Oasis is Nintendo's New 3DS RPG. It's a cute chibi art style fantasy action RPG where you also build your own oasis/town apparently. Seems alright.
Pokemon Go releases with the accessory for 34.99 at the end of July.

I only listened to small segments, but I seem to understand that you build the shops and have to fetch materials to make them carry more inventory for other adventurers to buy. When more adventurers move in your oasis you can hire them, which then unlocks new areas to explore since they have different abilities. I don't know how it will turn out in the end, but I'm currently interested in seeing more! I love the gather/craft format and it seems like this is a big part of this game too.
Not that I'm complaining, because both of them look awesome.
But the new God of War looks like they are just trying to rip-off Skyrim. And the new Zelda looks like it's trying to rip-off Far Cry: Primal's gameplay.
And it looks like God of War is going to do a better job at it out of the two.
Dead Rising 4 is a timed exclusive.
Also, some amazing Zelda gifs.

I think Zelda actually looks a bit underwhelming, to be honest. It just looks like Far Cry: Primal with crappier graphics, really. Big open world thats empty of civilization but teaming with the dangers of nature, and lots of gathering, crafting, and traveling to go along with your battles.They stated that there were no villages or people in the demo because spoilers. There will definitely be villages and people in the final game.
I mean, I'll probably buy it and play it, because I do like Zelda and open-world, but it looked like they just couldn't decide. If they wanted to do a Zelda, then go all in with the Zelda lore, mythology, and fantasy-elements. If you want to do an open-world, then go all in and wow us with the breathtaking views and graphics, and detailed nature. It feels like they straddled the fence between the two, from what I saw.
It looked like God of War was going to go in the same direction, but it looked much more impressive.
Like I said, glad the Zelda fans are getting a new game but to me Nintendo's "innovations" with the title are tropes that we have been seeing in open world games for over 15 years. And their reasoning why Link can't be female is absolutely mind boggling. I'll just leave this here.

^ Make a new game with a new character if you want a female protagonist, or make a new playable female character in a Zelda game; no reason to change what's already been established.
...Uh... I don't know what the deal is or where everyone is getting their information from.
...Uh... I don't know what the deal is or where everyone is getting their information from.
The statement from Nintendo was basically "We looked into a female character and the decision made was that if we have a playable female character it should be Zelda. If Zelda is the hero, does Link exist or matter? If Link doesn't exist or matter it throws off the balance of the triforce."
I suppose the operative in the statement is "If the player character is female, she should be Zelda". That is an absolutely valid opinion from the developers on why Link isn't female....Uh... I don't know what the deal is or where everyone is getting their information from.

Yeah, that's roughly what was said. That doesn't change what I wrote in any way. It's bad reasoning that makes little sense. They can turn Link into a wolf who's ridden by a cursed queen from an alternate dimension, but trying to figure out what to do with Link if he wasn't the hero is a challenge?
And the idea of balance makes just as much sense in a situation where it's a male, male, and female. The tri-force isn't about gender balance, it's about the balance between power, courage, and wisdom. If they just wanted to make keep Link as he is, just say that. It would annoy people less.
I suppose the operative in the statement is "If the player character is female, she should be Zelda". That is an absolutely valid opinion from the developers on why Link isn't female.
The balance refers to the tri-force, not gender balance. The hero of the game SHOULD be the holder of the triforce of courage.
Honestly, it doesn't matter, people would be up in arms regardless.
I actually just had this conversation with someone, and I stick with my statement. Personally, I think it would be wrong to switch up who has which triforce.I suppose the operative in the statement is "If the player character is female, she should be Zelda".

Yes, then she should probably be Zelda. And if the balance is the problem, then give the triforce of courage to Zelda. You aren't helping things here lol I could probably spend the next half hour writing up a dozen perfectly good setups where Zelda is the lead and Link is an NPC that would work out just fine within a LoZ story. Still, there's more than a couple good reasons that Link having a female version makes sense, even if they don't want to admit it
Of course, a few people might still be annoyed if they had been more straightforward about just wanting to keep Link a guy, but this is only a thing because their blatantly bad reasoning. Even Aonuma agreed that them being so hush hush on whether Link was male or not, with him looking extra androgynous lately factored in to this and why people were even discussing it in the first place.
I think if Nintendo just straight up said no we will never let link be female because no, people would be angrier and claiming sexism. Saying pathetic excuse causes less of an issue and it is fairly obvious Nintendo doesnt like being in those situations with their constant censorship of games when they come to NA.
you say it makes 100% sense, but it isn't your universe to decide what does and does not make sense in its context. The fact that they made an excuse at all, and again a valid excuse because it comes from the designers themselves, proves that it doesn't make 100% sense.I think if Nintendo just straight up said no we will never let link be female because no, people would be angrier and claiming sexism.

The "censorship" was rarely actually that, but mostly just localization. Underage girls in skimpy clothing is less likely to fly here. Only a couple instances might be considered proper censorship, like the breast scale in Xenoblade Chronicles X or the odd monster chest covering Tokyo Mirage Sessions.
I disagree that them saying Link would always be male would cause much of a fuss. A couple people would complain, because they always do, but most people aren't demanding it, just thinking it would be cool and it 100% makes sense in the context of LoZ's universe to allow it to happen. Or just use Zelda. Either way, their reasoning was super dumb, but it'll blow over easy enough as everyone is still crazy excited for the game.
I get that you're saying that because you don't agree with timed exclusives as a concept.Dead Rising 4 is a timed exclusive.

Capcom can eat my ass. Won't buy it even if it comes to PS4.

Personally though I don't care.
Dead Rising is awful.
Let's fill a room with zombies and give you crazy weapons to kill them with. It's the poster child of the current trend of 'put zombies in a game and it will sell'
Miyamoto all but confirming a new Mario game in the works but then says maybe we'll see it next E3.
Surely that's something you reveal at the NX reveal in the fall?
