Live version of the Zelda theme, nice

Colour me un-impressed with the E-Shop shit so far. Terrible slow browser and hardly no games on the shop. What little is there is rubbish or priced way, way too high for what it is. And no 3d screenshots/videos... WTF?

Still...

I'm hoping Nintendo really bring it this year. After the Skyrim & Tomb Raider stuff, I'm hoping they don't do the same old "nintendo" stuff (but at the same time, I want more of it? Oddness). Metroid 3ds thats in the same style as super metroid but in 3d please Ninty kthx.

PhattyEwok

Yea the gamestop stream is acting up so I posted game trailers link instead

odium

Four swords coop for free on DSI, I must be dreaming... But no 3DS? Strange move, hope its just a miss translation.

d1ver

Comeoooon Iwata! Give us Wii 2 now!

Cexar

I see the future of flying genitals with Star fox :P

moose

dude! Kid Icarus looks fucking rad! hahah

odium

Happy to see Luigi's Mansion is back, thats one under-rated game that would be spot on with 3DS. I'm ab it unsure about Mario however, that control looked... Stiff...

Now I'm just waiting for Metroid Its GONNA happen

nalwayv

Yaaaaaaa Luigi Mansion 2, loved the first game on gamecube. :P

Their lineup looks solid so far; nothing new here but that was to be expected. I hope the will show some new IP's though.

Btw, augmented reality is the buzzword of this E3:poly142:

Of course it's gonna happen, Nintendo have been remaking the games they thought up since the NES era :P

d1ver

Oh come on, Nindendo pimpin tetris. wtf %\

Come on Reggie, stop talking about Poke-a-man and show us the new console.

aesir

weeee yuuuuu!

Cexar

How about wee on u?

wasker

WiiuuuuuuuUuuUuu!

Skamberin

That looks like a really uncomfortable controller.

Oniram

Wii U?! they really need more people working on the names of these systems. lol

new nintendo console!

WII U

wasker

oh yeah! a sketchpad! im so getting this

teaandcigarettes

Holy shit...it's a tablet?

Skamberin

so they made an Ipad with regular buttons, for the Wii.

nalwayv

It's an IPad controller.

TheMadArtist

I'm confused...

PhattyEwok

Yeah it looks like a square for your Wii

odium

So is the pad a new console, or what...? Does this mean theres no "wii 2" and its just a new pad :S

wizo

back to the dreamcast's controller, the circle of gaming : ) !

Calabi

Its great but its just a gimmick thing. Developers will have to figure out of ways to use it even though they havent fully figured out how to use the normal controls.

I'm confused about that too. Iwata's explanation is only making it worse.

odium

Actually, with this being (I'm guessing) BlueTooth, I can't WAIT to see how amazing this gets hacked on PC... That would be a pretty damn amazing tablet to have on PC. Imagine MudBox on that thing...

TheMadArtist

I get the feeling there is a lot of head scratching going on in that room. Does it have a box? I have no idea...

ScudzAlmighty

all it is is a tablet controller for the Wii, hence the added U to the name. there's no actual new console.

aesir

Well I like it!

PhattyEwok

This looks awesome but please please let there be a new console

adam

Graphics generated by WiiU, transmitted to controller. There is a new console.

Jason Young

Well, there's new hardware also?

Skamberin

Buy a 3Ds a Wii and a Wii U and you can play the new Smash Bros properly!

Still not buying a Nintendo product

xvampire

wow amazing! now graphical demo is starting, definitely new console

Skamberin

Okay, tech demo of stuff that's been doable for the past 3 years or so.

teaandcigarettes

Damn, that tech demo was neat

PhattyEwok

wah wah wah wawawawawaw

tommywomble

I wish they'd say what this actually is

ScudzAlmighty

Grand Theft Lego! Woot!

odium

New game... *YESS!!!!*
That we can confirm today... *YESSSS!!!*
That isn't a tech demo... *YESSSSSSS!!!!*
And its Lego... *turns off*

Its a peripheral, hence the additional WIIu. The next console will be called the WIIUUTOO

wasker

yeah, eat that! Arkham city and dark siders 2 !

Skamberin

Wait what?
Is this a NEW console? with NEW hardware?
Or are they just going to GIMP the shit out of Arkham City and Darksiders 2 visually for it to fit on the Wii
