It'll be recorded on Nintendo's E3 site anyway.

Don't you care that you're going to miss Microsoft conference for the same reason? :p

I have no real expectations for Nintendo this year. They usually have great conferences, except for their 2008 one of course.

Pikmin 3 and Smash seem obvious, though an F-Zero or Star Fox would be awesome.

Smash probably won't be there. They only started working on it in February.

That could have been where I saw it ._.

The only one I'm really interested in seeing this year is Nintendo's. I want my darn Luigi's Mansion and Paper Mario already :|
I really hate how I've made more than 12,000 posts here. Thankfully this swaying, moving Chandelure makes it all worth it.

Yeah. At most we'll hear a brief mention of it. Hopefully a teaser of some kind.

Nintendo made a Wii U Facebook page. Link in OP.

What I plan to hear from each conference:

Microsoft: "Erm, yeah, we're working on the next Xbox, but no way it's coming out this year so... Halo 4! And...more first person shooters."

EA: "Make MOAR generic sports and shooting games!"

Sony: "Someone please buy the Vita! PLEASE!? Oh, and here are some good, interesting games for the PS3 that I'm sure everyone will like, but please buy a Vita!"

Ubisoft: No clue, they're kind of a wild card every year.

Nintendo: "So yeah, here's the WiiU. We're gonna TRY with the internet stuff, but not very hard in terms of gameplay. We mean make it easier for you to give us your money...digitally. Here's tons more Mario and Pokemon. Oh, and Pikmin 3 I guess, since we promised it. But the rest you'll have to wait til later because we want to make money out of the gate, and apparently lack of Mario caused the 3DS bad launch, not it's overpricedness."

Probably gonna be wrong on a lot of things, but pre-show predictions are always kind of silly.

Your Microsoft one was WAY off, so I fixed it for you.

Perfect. I don't think I even need to watch theirs now.

I just remembered how horrible the Microsoft conferences are. Why do they demonstrate Kinect so much when no one in attendance or watching it cares about it? I guess it would be five minutes long without it, but at least Nintendo realized that something like the Vitality Sensor doesn't really fit with E3.

because microsoft wants you to care about it. they dont need to show halo to sell halo. this is not complicated.

Only a few Kinect games are good, the technology behind it is more interesting than anything developers put out for the most part.

I always joke about Nintendo releasing a new Urban Champion game, which I thought was impossible, but they did release a 3D Classics version of it, so it's always hard to get a feel for what they have planned.

Anything Kinect does benefits humanity more than it will ever hope to benefit video games.

I guess Microsoft should totally stick to computers without the games.
