gaming Nintendo E3 2014

[HeroSparks 232]

So as you may probably know Nintendo is releasing Super Smash Bros on 3DS this summer and WiiU this winter. Also, as you may or may not know, Nintendo has been needing/trying some serious big guns to help them out. So maybe with such a diverse cast in Smash, we'll see some new franchise games announced at E3 this summer. Probably at least a new Metroid or console Zelda and with as much as they need it MAYBE (big maybe) a new Starfox or F-Zero. So what does everybody else think? What do you think the possibility of getting some franchise games besides another 3 Mario games is?

Get me Lost Kingdoms 3 and I will buy a WII U in a milliheartbeat.

Ooh, and a new Bomberman platformer game. Like Bomberman 64.

[Megas 27,742]

For new stuff, I'm really hoping for a new Starfox, F-Zero, or Metroid game to be announced this year

 

I'm also expecting a new IP or two this time

New IPs are a death sentence for Nintendo.

They need heavy hitters like Zelda, Mario, Pokemon, Metroid...something that'll bring in the crowds of hardcore gamers and establish the WII U as a console to have.

 

Besides...knowing Nintendo, their new IP will be a casual game like...I dunno...Flower Gardener 2014.

I think their main focus will be Super Smash Bros Universe and the new Zelda game. Hopefully they'll surprise us with something in the end.

Strange I was interested in a F-Zero game. Even though I have never played one, I think it would be a good play. Also, hoping a metroid is announced. I wouldn't even mind is it was a game for 3DS. Something comparable to Metroid Prime Hunters DS.

Or that S.T.E.A.M thing that was announced a while back

 

Or they could always bring back Project HAMMER(whatever happened to that?)

Typically, I'm fairly against Mario games, just because of the sheer amount that gets released compared to everything else but I wouldn't mind a new Mario Party since it's been awhile since the last one. The last F-Zero game (I'm not counting the TV show based Game Boy ones) was beautiful even on the Gamecube. I know Mario Kart has kinda become the big Nintendo racing game, but F-Zero was so much more intense which is something they really need right now. And onto Starfox, they really don't have any other game that's like Starfox so they have no reason not to do it. Metroid really needs a good boost right now too, especially after how Other M was received (personally liked it but can understand the hate), it made an amazing FPS with Prime which is another genre Nintendo doesn't have anything for

My only real problem with Mario games is that they try to make everything with him. Give him a break, stick to the main titles and the occasional kart racer and RPG, that's all they need

[Radiance64 7,053]

I hope for a new Metroid announcement. I mean, I really want that at least...

Other than that, I hope for some trailers for the new Zelda, X, SMT x FE, and Yarn Yoshi, along with a new character reveal or two for Smash. Maybe some reassurance of their third party relationships as well, hopefully MK8 will make enough sales to bring some more on board for Wii U at least.

Oh, and hopefully they'll have a real press conference and not just a Direct this time. They could really use that sort of publicity.

[Geek0zoid 1,468]

I really hope for a new Metroid game above all else. I recently bought Super Metroid on the Eshop, and there's been almost nothing else I've played since I've bought it. I'm itching for something like a new console Metroid game.

Same goes for Zelda. I have Wind Waker HD already, but I don't exactly want another HD re- release. I want something new, y'know? I mean, sure, we've got that Hyrule Warriors thing, but that doesn't really seem like something I'd enjoy, Zelda or not.

There is a new Zelda for Wii U in the works. They've said it numerous times in Nintendo Directs. I'm certainly expecting we'll see something of it this E3 at any rate.

[Scootalove 10,689]

Maybe a new Zelda game for the Wii U, can really get me to buy it.

[Moonlight Magician 494]

I'm actually excited that the Koopalings are going to be playable in MK8. :comeatus:

I remember reading up on it in a game informer, and the article said who the developers were. I don't remember exactly who it was, but I remembered that they were rather infamous for making low quality titles for certain franchises.

Yup, Aonuma (the current director of the franchise) was even going to unveil it at last year's E3, but decided against it for some reason. He was also going to reveal it at some comic con last year, but he decided to talk about ALBW instead.

 

On topic: To be honest, even just a new Zelda will probably satisfy me (I've only played Skyward Sword and Wind Waker, as far as the series goes, and they were two of the best games I've ever played), but a new Metroid would be really nice. I'm a rather casual gamer, at least probably in most "hardcore" gamers' eyes, so I'm not familiar with a lot of the franchises everyone is raging for.

[Bright Honor 2,679]

They really need to deliver this year. Last year's E3 wasn't terrible, but it was boring and predictable and ruined by stream issues. There needs to be a good surprise or two.

[11th Doctor Whooves 794]

I'd kill for a new Star Fox game, especially if it were more like Star Fox 64.  Don't get me wrong, I liked the Gamecube game, but I still go back and play 64, that's how much I love it.  Also, if they really want to make a new Pokemon Snap, that'd be nice too.....come on Nintendo, you know we want it, give it to us already!!!!!

[7th Boss 102]

Yea, new XCOM! This might be cool

[Megas 27,742]

Since no one posted it here

 

They're gonna do a direct stream again this year, hopefully it's better than the one last year

[Bright Honor 2,679]

It seems as expected, SSB4 will be a big part of their E3. I suspect the digital event will end with a teaser trailer for Zelda U.

[Adorkable 2,737]

I hope to see more info on Sonic Boom, the new Smash Bros, and maybe a new Star Fox game!

 

Like that'll ever happen.

[Azure Envy 1,092]

Zelda, Star Fox, Smash Brothers, Metroid, Kirby... the list goes on. They've got a chance to really hit it out of the park here and I sincerely hope they do.

 

My Wii U is ready. :okiedokielokie:

[Troblems 5,617]

Microsoft will drop Rare, and Nintendo will pick them up like they should have in the first place.

 

 

...A girl can dream.

Fun fact, you can't get the Donkey Kong Country trilogy on the Wii Virtual Console anymore. I'm guessing it's because of Microsoft owning Rare and being butts about it

So I heard Nintendo is gonna announce a new home console next year. Admittedly it makes me a little sad that they're giving up on the WiiU without really even making an attempt to save it with some good games. I have one and I really like it, it just needs a better library. I'm still hoping they still give the WiiU some love while they have it though and not just move everything back a couple years to the new console. Also, this is only speculation and there may be nothing to worry in the end anyway

It's not a replacement for the Wii U. From what I've heard they're only making new consoles exclusively for emerging markets like China(who recently lifted it's game console ban)
