Official E3 Announcement/Discussion thread

[burningdoom]

Sorry for posting this again, but I realized I originally posted it in the wrong thread:

So Nintendo was just one big disappointment. I almost want to sell my Wii U because there's like nothing to look forward to now. And where are all the third-party games they were talking about having for E3? 

Oh, and deathmatch Metroid...WTF?! We want a proper Metroid game!!!

So I was talking to a friend yesterday, and I pitched this conspiracy theory: we haven't seen a truly NEW Mario game on the Wii U that wasn't an iteration of one of the other games - nothing like Mario Galaxy. We haven't seen a Metroid period, and we *know* Retro is working on something. And now Zelda's been delayed. What are the odds they are building their launch lineup for the NX?

On the Square conference, I don't get the hate. Unless of course you just didn't care for the games they showed, which were mostly JRPGs. Did the presenters sing & dance?  No, but I don't give a crap about that - the footage they showed was really good IMO. Yes, FF7 & World of FF were repeats from Sony's show, but AFAIK the footage we saw for Just Cause 3, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Hitman was all new. And I know the Star Ocean: Integrity & Faithlessness and the Kingdom Hearts 3 footage was brand new.

And Wii U owners get shafted in the meantime. Thanks for supporting your existing user-base, Nintendo. I think if they do that, they should release them multiplatform, like they did the Resident Evils and Zeldas between GameCube and Wii.

Nintendo Treehouse now

Sooooo I just pre-ordered 10 games on Amazon... I pre-ordered more than I would have, since they have their "30% off on 3 or more pre-orders" promotion  And since it's Amazon, if I decided I didn't want one of these games, I can just cancel it before release.

The discount is definitely worth it:

'Murica! but my wallet. This month hurts a lot.

Whats up with (GST/HST) & (PST/QST) tax? Is that like territory and city tax?

Whats up with (GST/HST) & (PST/QST) tax? Is that like territory and city tax?

GST is the federal tax, and PST is the Quebec provincial tax.

For those curious, the games are:

Fire Emblem: Fates (3DS)
Hyrule Warriors (3DS)
Kingdom Hearts III (PS4)
Legend of Zelda U (Wii U)
Legend of Zelda: TriForce Heroes (3DS)
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (3DS)
Tearaway Unfolded (PS4)
Super Mario Maker (Wii U)
Sword Art Online: Lost Song (Vita)
Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U)

And I find this whole thing kinda funny because (as far as I remember) I've never had more than 2 games pre-ordered at any given time  I already have Persona 4 Dancing All Night pre-ordered too, and Persona 5 is next on the list as soon as it's possible to pre-order it.

Sounds rough

The PRK (People's Republik of Kommiefornia) forced amazon to charge taxes to us too.

Same here. I've already preordered 9 games with this 30% off promotion and might put in a few more preorders some time before the promotion ends tomorrow.
