Sounds about right. I was expecting so much more from nintendo.

i'd say next year wii will have heaps of new games, but M$ or Sony will announce a new console.

Yeah, they could nailed it considering it is the FIRST next gen console.

We could of seen more of that HD Zelda we saw a glimpse of from last year or even some character reveals for the new Super Smash Bros.

The Zelda was a tech demo. SS only released last year...
And Smash Bros only started development a couple months ago.

Tech demo or not, we didn't really see the full capabilities of the Wii U. What separates the Wii U of the "next gen" consoles if it doesn't look any prettier than your standard 360/Ps3 game?

Why are they still using out dated Mii's from like, 6 years ago?

Why aren't they showing off the general GUI?

The Super Smash thing was a long shot, but surely you'd have some character concepts nailed down, right?

This E3 is just underwhelming and it should of not been because Nintendo had a NEXT gen console.

Wii U isn't next gen. It's the Wii 1.5 if it doesn't do well and the true next console if it does.

Disappointing to see old third party games as the big things. It needed to be BioShock, GTA not stuff from 6-12 months ago.

Still, all they really need to do is get their first party software right.

It was mine as well out of the big three so far for the games, but Nintendo felt more satisfying overall due to it only really being about the games. But hey, E3 is for the gamers, as long as you're happy you can consider it a success.

Nintendo was beyond solid, however the Nintendo Land bullshit let them down quite a bit. With nothing revealed about specs, price or release, it was also a little disappointing.

I have a feeling NintendoLand is gonna be like a WiiSports deal for me.

I'll see it and shake my head, but once you put it in front of me, I'll love it. So I'm trying not to make a call on it yet haha.

To be honest, I would have preferred an enhanced Wii Sports.

The online interaction thing is one small step towards online play, which could have been utilized in the NSMBWU game, and made it about 100X enjoyable... if done right, of course.

Dear god, just woke up. X_X

I thought the new Mario games and Luigi's game looked great. Not much else caught my attention to be honest. :S

Oh lawd, that was so stupid to spend so long on. The explanation for that ghost one tool way too long. [Facepalm]

Just played some Hitman at Xbox's international media shindig, except they're all like, go to our party to play Halo 4 and I think I might get there just too late [Rage]

The demo Hitman level was pretty cool. 15+ different ways to assassinate the target.
