My Secret Plan...!

Post by MrEco »

Well, sort of.

Every year we all hope that Nintendo will give the announcement of some big new game that will be somewhere between awesome and deliciousness. Every year at E3, however, Nintendo has given us announcements that were generally between disappointing and frightening.

This year things will be different. You see, this year, I am hoping that Nintendo announces something totally horrible. That way the Laws of the Universe will get all confused and give us something we actually want. 8)

So what do you think of my plan? But more importantly. What are you hoping will happen at E3?

Im personally hoping for a 300 dollar ps3... even though I still wont buy one for that much. Im also hoping that the next kojima game is something other than MGS.

Well, I heard that Nintendo has just about bought the liscence to Capcom itself- they've got like, 8 exclusive games in development for the Wii.

I'm more paying attention to the Sega side of things, since they just came out with the Ringedge and Ringwide arcade boards, this is the 10th anniversary year of the Dreamcast, they just got a patent on a Saturn 3D looking controller, and the next generation is just about a year and a half out- and Sega is always first to the punch.

If Sega announces that they are getting back into the console war, I will quite literally cream my pants.

I'll cream mine to that would be crazy (sony would have to die for this to happen imo) 300 ps3 makes alot of sense. wow 8 capcom titles for wii? Might as well own them haha. Imagine if they had sf4 all to themselves-that'd sell some wiis and piss alot of ppl off. Sega seems to like the wii to. I need one badly but I keep getting other stuff. eventually I will though for all those sega games and that smash bros :)

I hope E3 doesn't suck. wish I had the money to go to I was invited :(

ew


I'm hoping for at least one good in depth wii game that isn't kid friendly at all. There have been some good wii games, but most either have a kid element to them or are very shallow. Madworld was a nice try, but it is just a brawler. House of the dead games are fun, but light gun games. The blob is cool- but super simple and very kid friendly. Okami was neat, but it is just a port. All of these games, although fun don't have a lot of depth imho.

I'm hoping for something more along the lines of the witcher. Some kind of RPG that uses the point/click interface that the wii is great for. Seriously- the witcher is 2 mouse button game with a third if you want to move the camera, and it is a fantastic. Why can't we have something like that on the wii? I may be asking too much to get a western RPG on a very Japanese console though.

Also i'm hoping for a fun shooter on the wii. I know the conduit is coming out, but all the concept design just looks awful in that game. (am i alone in this? i fell like i am. Everyone seems to be in love with this game) I want something along the lines of RE5 or Dead Space. Unlocks a plenty with some cool shooting mechanics all in a nice slick package.

But mostly- i just want to be pleasantly surprised. Last year it seems like everyone was talking about stuff that had leaked or had press releases well in advance of e3. Kinda bummed out the convention coverage.

Predictions:

Sony will announce a pricecut . . . for the PS2. It will go down to 89.99.
Sony will announce that the ps3 is not selling well enough to make them money, so they will release a new version for $9,999 that includes new outfits for your Home character.

Microsoft will announce the M$ii Mote. A completely revolutionary addon that uses advanced accelerometer and gyroscopic chips. It will be supported by three games: Banjo Kazooie: Buildin' a Log Cabin, Halo Trivia Party, and Mr. Potatohead's Pencil Sharpener Extravaganza (available in separate downloads of $29.99 each.)

Nintendo will announce that they're working on entirely new experiences such as Wii Music 2, Wii Fit 2, and Kid Icarus Conducts a Symphony.

Nintendo will announce the DSj, a brand new upgrade to the Nintendo DS that includes all the features of the DS and DSi except it's not compatible with DS or DSi games and it has 17 built in microphones.

You forgot about Sega! They well announce another Sonic game in which you play Sonic who is a half robot.
Life is as good as your game!
