We all want that, but realistically, Legends has a LOT of proving to do sales-wise before Capcom will consider an HD budget.

Iwata Asks, about WiiU and other things

Glad to see Mario Kart features the return of what I call the "Baby Daisy Dance" victory theme.

Keep in mind guys, there are two Nintendo Post-E3 Developer Roundtables to attend tonight and tomorrow night at 5:30PM PST/8:30PM EST that go for two hours each. One of which is rumored to be a massive third party showing and the other a Nintendo offering special for WiiU. See you there for the first one in an hour and a half from now! 8)

What time is that for me?
Anyone from my timezone can help me?

To my calculations that's 2:30 and 7:30 in the morning.

5:30 PST, unless my memory fails me, is in about an hour from now.

We only get liveblogs from these ones though, don't we?

Oh man. Liveblogs are so lame.

But if that's the only way, I'll deal with it.

IGN's blog is live.  Roundtable seems to be running late.

In all the new hardware talk I sincerely hope that NoA hasn't forgotten about that Fire Emblem game they left untranslated.  By now that's probably wishful thinking, though... O:<



EDITS: Oh yeah, there is a Gamespot blog:
http://e3.gamespot.com/story/6317679/e3-2011-nintendo-developer-roundtable

Seems you have to manually refresh that one, though (or at least I did at first...).

It's automatic too, but you rarely notice the refresh tho.
Just wait a while and it does its thing. ^^;

Yeah, I just noticed.  Maybe there's some lag in when the page refreshes?  *shrugs*

IGN stopped their liveblog for the Zelda demo; all folks were asked to shut off their wireless to avoid the interference disaster of last year.  Gamespot is being naughty, though. :V

Well, that was lame. Why not allow recording if your not sharing anything that hasn't already been shown?

So, the basic jist of things:

-Bunch of awesome games we already knew about.
-Zelda Skyward Sword includes an alternate dimension where you're swordless.  And, as expected, your sword's spirit (Phi) is your "navigator" in the game.  Much more overworld puzzles in this one, calling for an improved map system.
-Luigi's Mansion 2 is happening because...Miyamoto wanted to.  It's coming early 2012.
-Mario 3DS includes a Zelda-tribute stage.  Top-down view with Mario leaping towards the camera, lighting torches with fireballs, and dodging ye olde moving spike blocks.
-3DS Tanooki Suit does not fly.  Apparently that was too difficult to do on a small 3D screen (I smell the "we couldn't program Peach's dress" level of BS; can't they just say they wanted to make stages that aren't so easily broken?).  They only decided to have Mario fly back in SMB3 after seeing how good the fluttering motion looked.
-Pikmin 3 is coming to Wii U, and Miyamoto apparently wasn't supposed to talk about it. XD It *WAS* a Wii project, but Miyamoto felt the U's controller was a perfect fit for it.
-Vitality Sensor doesn't give consistent enough results for market yet, but they're still working on it.

Dragon's Crown is a new 2D Action RPG from Vanillaware, the developer that's also working on PSP's Grand Knights History for Marvelous Entertainment. Ignition is handling the worldwide publishing on this one. The official site says that it's the second Japan-produced title from Ignition (the first was El Shaddai).

Although the game appeared in Sony's PS Vita trailer reel, the official site reveals it to be in development for both PlayStation 3 and PS Vita. The game will see release in Spring 2012 and features support for 1 to 4 players.

George Kamitani is directing the game. Ignition's Kashow Oda is serving as producer.


As detailed at the official site, Dragon's Crown offers "red-hot multiplayer 2D action." Up to four players can team up via online play to work through dungeons, clearing quests and progressing through the game's story.

The lets players build up their character as they collect items, treasure and weapons from the dungeons. You'll need to build up your character to face off agains the screen-filling dragons.


The official site isn't totally clear about this, but it seems that the game's PS3 and Vita version will have cross console play. The official site says "Up to four players work together via PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita."

uuuuuuuuuWiiiiU
Alright, I missed the Nintendo conference. Only just seeing the highlights now, and I'm very happy with... pretty much all of it. Wii U looks great, I can definitely see myself upgrading if given the chance even if the new control is a bit gimped. And even if Nintendo themselves isn't doing some of their flagship franchise titles on 3DS themselves (Mario Kart 3DS in partnership with Retro, Luigi's Mansion 2 by Next Level Games), I'm still impressed by the quality of the studios that are doing them, nor can I argue with the WiiU's lineup either! owob

On another note, seeing Capcom's Asura's Wrath; HOLY FU-

But, even if E3 is amazing and mindblowing, the markup in Australia (1, 2) is just the opposite. Even with the strong $AUD, us folks here are still (STILL) suffering from inane markup. Excuse me in advance if I say that I'm probably going to be sitting on the sidelines whenever any of this comes out. I still don't have a 3DS yet, either.

I guess all I can really say is it isn't exactly what I'd expect out of a $4.4M game

It doesn't even have mouth animations

I import everything from America nowadays~ 8D So if the price in America is good I'm usually happy \o/ Unfortunately not everything is region free. Also the 3DS is expensive and I was waiting to see how the Vita would fair, so I don't have one yet either =O Don't think importing a Wii U would be the smartest thing though.

Anyway games here are stupid expensive~~ Most of my newer DS games are imports too >3
