There's still rumors of FFXI being ported over to the PS3, so that may come tomorrow, although it could've been all about FFXIV, so who knows.
Honestly, I just want this all over with so I know what PS3 I should buy. :x Also, saw the Metroid trailer... Ninja Gaiden Metroid, it looks like. So... jesus fuck, it's gonna be hard. |

I noticed in the Other M footage Ridley is pulling the grab and grind move he did in SSB:B. It's a lot bulkier than he was in Brawl, which I think is too bad - his stick-like neck actually looked pretty cool.
At least he's purple. |
Wait what Metroid trailer?

^Metroid M, link on page 13 I believe.

Alright sweet, we get a look in the past long before Adam bit the dust and was uploaded to the ship. I'm kind of glad we're not dealing with more Metroid-DNA-Fusion-suit whatsit shit. Power suit is where it's at. NSMBWii looks good. Golden Sun DS shit yeah ladies, wish I still had my old Lost Age save. When's the Konami conference? I want to podcast a big old discussion about this but I don't want to wait that long. Quote:

Nice List RT. THat covers all the important games.
|
As per RT's latest post, what I gather is that of the 11 big things we have so far, 8 of them are Nintendo Related, and the other 3 are split between PS3, 360 and Windows. And we're STILL expecting more things from Nintendo.
|
No; that just means I'm a Nintendo whore.

Whatever it is I want to play it right now and can't wait for 2010 or at least for some story details to appear. I'd like to find out what happens after Fusion but prequels are tasty enough. Definitely highlight of the show (so far) for me. |
Yes, but you're a Nintendo whore with taste.
|
Well, why wouldn't you be?

Yeah, very good taste's you don't just whore for any nintendo stuff, it's gotta be the high quality stuff.

So Capcom's secret E3 game has turned out to be Resident Evil PSP. Kind of a letdown but oh well.

If they omit the purple coin missions they answer my only complaint about SMG.
Funnily enough, collecting 100 stupid damn coins in stupid damn places was really tedious and actually ruined that game for me. "Oh hey lets place coins 95-100 over an instant death pit which if you fall into means you have to find every single one again and lets put them really low down so you need the timing of a ninja to get them all and survive! Yeah!" Screw you, desert level! It's a shame because up to those missions I really loved the game but they frustrated me so much I got sick of it. I'll have to come back to it at some point and just pretend they aren't there. |

Assholes. |
My big concern with the Other M story is that it's going to turn out to be the Adam Malkovich show: guest-starring Samus Aran due to a misguided attempt to justify Samus liking him so much in Metroid 4.
To clarify what I mean, a story about the Life and Times of Adam Malkovich and the parts of the Life and Times of Samus Aran in which Adam plays a role are very different, and I'd much prefer to see the latter. Normally I wouldn't worry, but Adam's a dude and Samus isn't, and it's still all too common for women to draw the short stick even when they're supposed to be the protagonist of the fucking story. I ain't saying he should be a bit player or a chump. When Samus Aran thinks you were an awesome motherfucker you've got to have thrown down some serious shit. Best case, he comes up with smart plans and maybe gets a little bit of UST, but he doesn't leap into direct action until it's time to die for the cause. There's plenty of room to take that too far. Worst case scenario, Adam's a Gary Stu and Samus has an obvious crush on him. |
Yeah I will say that if Samus Aran gets downgraded to fucking fanservice character in her own series I will go from room to room of Nintendo headquarters cutting whatever I find inside.
The clips in that trailer showed a lot of Samus Aran owning the fuck out of some monsters so I'm not too worried but let's be honest ever since that blue-bodysuit shit went down it's been a concern. ...Basically the ideal dude role in a Metroid story is that one dude bounty hunter from the Nintendo Power Metroid comic a million years ago. |
Shouldn't you be doing that to the Team Ninja people, and not Nintendo? Just sayin'.
The two different viewpoints in the game, first person and third person, while interesting, do give me pause to worry. I have hard time explaining why. |

Actually, it'd be more like if Siegfried had heard that Roy was a pretty good guy and a good magician and invited him to help with a show; only then Roy disembowels the tiger on stage and bathes in its blood. Maybe Siegfried shouldn't have trusted Roy, but Roy is still the one who did the thing what he did.

It is my secret dream that Samus Aran's official characterization will turn out like this, but I must admit it is unlikely.
|
I have to say, I really like short-haired Samus. It works.

Look I will try to make it clearer. If Nintendo puts a game franchise in Team Ninja's hands and Team Ninja makes a game that is ridiculous and fanservicey, is it really Team Ninja that you blame? |

I consider completely avoiding fan service a lost cause, so I'm just hoping that it'll have the gameplay to make up for it ten fold. |
Mario Bros Wii has over 80 levels.
You can freeze enemies into platforms by throwing snowballs. You use a penguin suit for that. |
Yeah, I know I'm late to reply to this, but I just took a nap because all the surprises tuckered me out.

Link is gonna be all really grown up in Zelda Wii. Apparently they just showed off a sketch of him.
Quote:

"More grown up than ever before" makes me a little nervous.
Like, beard/mustache/any facial hair? May be good if pulled off properly. But "adult" has many meanings. Will this be the first AO-rated Zelda? |
Maybe Link has an eye missing and a large scar down his cheek, and he traded the master sword in for a bottle of scotch?
This is Nintendo, he probably just looks taller and maybe a little more girth in the arms. |
I'm liking most of what I'm reading in Shiggy's round table. Nintendo seems to have figured out that experienced gamers are still playing their console and are trying to give us stuff to play this holiday and next year. Plus, I respect his whole "tech-demos are nice, but I'd rather show stuff that's actually being worked on" stance.

I totally want Old Man Link.

Oh on the whole SAMUS ARAN FANSERVICE thing?
Itigaki was the most sexist guy working for Team Ninja and when he bailed out he took most of the old Team Ninja with him, and this is like 99% all new employees. So, I think we're safe. |
Presentation was cool, but I kinda wish they'd announced something special for this, rather than just showing off one piece of concept art.
|
Apparently NSMBW won't have any online play because "there's so much going on the screen that we use up all our processing power, so we simply have nothing left."
Really? Reeeeally? I'm hyped as shit for Galaxy 2 though. Since I assume they're reusing the old codes and engines and what not, they should be able to focus on patching up Galaxy's few flaws and make the game as a whole better and longer than the original. Or they could completely half ass it. Who knows. |
I can't seem to find any of the pictures of link that you guys mentioned. Know where I can find one in image form instead of watching 2 hours of E3 for one picture?

I have some serious reservations about Metroid: Other M. Yeah, the breast loving dude left Team Ninja, but also, pretty much what made good Team Ninja games laft as well. The mixing of the sidescroller and third person elements seems really kinda weird, and I'm starting to fear this will be a very linear game. Fusion was pretty linear, but I can't shake the notion that exploration will be taken out of this entirely. Also, story scenes, what? I like my story integrated into the actual game, like how Retro Studios was doing it. I know I have a reputation of being a pessimist about things like this around here, but I see very little to look forward to in this new Metroid venture. Hopefully my fears will be/already have been disproved by actual gameplay footage, but I'll not hold my breath, instead opting to wait to see what Retro Studios is working on next. Something I find very intriguing, however, is this rumor that Kojima Productions will be handling the next Castlevania. |
Magical Girl Transformation: Didn't see it. Probably wouldn't care.
Linearity: I love linearity, though I definitely see where Mike is coming from on this one. Story integration: I have to agree. I don't generally associate Metroid with cinematic cutscenes. I don't have a problem with them, but MP3 seemed better off without them. Gameplay: Once again, and I'm as shocked as anyone, I have to agree with Mike. It could be awesome, but it sounds like an "OMG IDEA IS SOOOO ORIGINAL TOO BAD THE APPLICATION SUCKS!" instance. |

Honestly when Nintendo said it was going to become a first-person perspective adventure game the reaction was more or less similar, so I'll withhold judgment.

The thing with Metroid Prime is that it was one thing. They were able to focus on making that one thing awesome. This is multiple things. I worry that at least one of the gameplay types will suffer from it.

Seriously man, I unno. If just ONE producer stayed and liked Inagaki to produce a bouncy Samus that completely negates everything she stood for in the 80s 90s and today. That of a kickass heroine who didn't need a body to be deadly. Just a suit of armor and more ammo than a colonial Space Marine. |
