Electronic Entertainment Expo 2011 (E3)

Just like every other major Nintendo announcement in the last few years, I am totally perplexed as to whether this is brilliant or completely fucking insane or both.

[Herr Matzat]

So this trys to be an accesory, mini tablet, handheld but homeconsole all in one... mmmmmmmmh...

[Maxx]

I like that the controller is gigantic and yet still appears to have incredibly small buttons.

SMASH BROTHERS

I KNEW IT WAS COMING AND IT'S JUST A BASIC PROMISE WITH NO DETAILS BUT STILL

[Skummy]

It's both. And it's going to be amazing - I'll go on record know as saying this is the most exciting console development in years.

Well, iPad and Apple TV (or a HDMI out) sort of Work like that with your TV already. Just without the buttons but with portabilety and a bigger screen. I bet it will work out somehow.... but still clearly winning this years WTF badge.

Okay, Nintendo, you win. ALL GLORY TO THE NEW WACOM TABLET OVERLORDS

[Sousa]

Fuck yeah, Tekken Wii Successor is the best title since New Super Mario Bros. Looking forward to Donkey Kong Sequel and Another Fucking Awesome Game About Mario.

Half the stuff they showed was just stuff Wii already does, with more visuals. Big deal, you can put your controller on the ground and see the ball as if you were standing over it when golfing. That doesn't impact game play. The throwing stars is the same thing, it's just an added visual to a game play technique you were already performing. That's not impressive, that's just unnecessary.

[TCO]

So it's they're basically they've caught up with PS3 and Xbox 360 hardware after over half a decade, but they've got an oversized and I assume overpriced controller with a screen?

Am I supposed to be impressed?

[Mr. X]

I'm intrigued with the implications this could have, and that lineup looks pretty sweet.

[Herr Matzat]

Arcadre fire!!!

Here how it looks wen the iPad dos it.

And i am fairly certain that there are games you can run on PS3 and play on PSP. So the concept issent realy to new.

I was completely out until that last montage there. Looks like developers are in on this. I'm at least interested now.

[Your Mom]

Something I've always wanted and maybe they can do now with the 2 screens is like a shooter where we are both playing but like split off to do 2 seperate missions at the same time and then meet back up. Does that make sense?

[Regia]

Okay, all that stuff does look pretty cool, but I am still slightly put off by the controller. I can't imagine the controller is easy to use if you don't want to use the screen.

[GoGo Yubari]

So in other words what I'm getting from the EA thing is that Nintendo is finally attempting to get online right.

[Meacon Keaton]

I also think it might be too big for me to even use right

Obligatory "That's what she said".

The question is, was it a Wii Games add or do you actualy need the WiiU? Buy a (or several?) Tablet PC Controlers that are not portable so you can play games on Wii that need a controler with a few more buttons? I don´t think so.

Opening up the Wii to more "core gamers", maybe.
