3DS looks pretty interesting... 3D screen with slider to adjust the amount of 3D, a forward facing camera and two rear cameras to take 3D photos, 3D films and some interesting games... and all with no 3D glasses! :o

EDIT: Thanks, I'll try it later if I have any more problems. I turned the quality down and that's working atm.

Whats stupid about the conferences is that most people have no idea how to present something good. Most of those nerds just learn something out of their head and then quote it from their mind, with little charisma and no interaction at all.

I mean how hard is it to provide the right information with a little more flair

That was a pretty good conference from Nintendo.

The new Zelda (Skyward Sword) looked very nice. New items new ways to use the older items, and finally 1 to 1 sword control. Shame about the wireless interference or whatever it was.

Metroid Other M continued to look good in the new trailer, and now it has a new release date.

It's great to see Retro studios making a new game, fitting that after reviving/reinventing the Metroid franchise that they try their hand at Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Country. The trailer for the new Donkey Kong Country game looked excellent.

The new Kirby game also looked interesting, looks like it will provide new gameplay with the way you can manipulate the game world.

And the 3DS...

The 3DS seemed quite awesome. The new Kid Icaras game is a good choice for a début game for the new console. I'm looking forward to seeing how the 3D works.

I liked how the guy introducing the Playstation.Move was digging on Wii casual gamers.

Sorcery looks quite fun.

@Chyros : You were asking whenever the new Medal of Honor was going to be an open beta?
Well it's a closed one, you must pre-order the game to get it on 21 June, or preorder the game AND have BC2 to get on 17 June.
Just saw that on steam...

Not yet, but when Other M is released with some bundle I will get it.

Btw I am disgusted that there has not been any mention of a new F-Zero

New Zelda controls look really clunky, and the graphics arent something to write home about
I hope the new metroid wont be as taxing to play

Zelda is getting delayed, so I'd expect most inconsistencies to be rubbed out. Zelda games are (generally) pretty bug free.

I don't mind the style to be honest, a mix between Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. Pretty much a shoutout to Ocarina.

[Pav:3d]

New twisted metal looks insane

Anyone see the Kintect conference, its certainly.... *cough* something.....

Disappointed at that Zelda trailer. If it really ought to reminisce Ocarina of Time, it better get some more atmosphere. It were of course just a few flashes but still, it looked really bad.

[TheDR]

The Wii really needed to up its graphics this E3. Some games that didn't push the console to its limits looked good (The new Kirby game for example) but the 3D games just looked awful. GoldenEye and Zelda just don't look nice graphically on those massive screens. I could still play them and it would be fine, but it doesn't help when they try to sell the games as "new" and "fresh", when they look old and sharp.

[Alias]

I guess I'm alone in thinking that the new Zelda is the closest stylistically to Ocarina of Time... ;_;

[Shirou]

The character, Link, is very reminiscent (although he doesn't retain his smexy shiny tights, a pity) but I don't think Cell shading is the answer to recreating a good environment on a less powerful console.

Its just that what I liked most about OoT was its darkness, the wilderness of its evil atmospheres. Nintendo has been all over cell shading lately which doesn't lend itself good for darker atmospheres. The darkness of places like, well any of the five temples out there, thats what I want to see. I know I sound like just any old gamefan who wants to see things done in the way of the old game, something I have attacked people for regularly. Maybe I should stop doing that though.

I care less and less for the Wii with each progressing day, and more and more for the 3DS.

Seriously, I've heard rave reviews about the 3DS and the 3D-ness it's got. A little bit fugly, but holy crap the 3D stuffs, as well as the massive amount of games. Wow, Golden sun? new Ocarina of Time? new StarFox 64? Kid Icarus (aka, Sin and Punishment in disguise)? Metal Gear? Nintendogs (which I loved when it first came out). A serious shitton of games.

I humbly await for my mind to blown away via an orbital laser.

For all those complaining that E3 is just sequels...

Yay for creativity! If I end up getting a Move controller, I will definitely get that game!

All I really am interested in at E3 this year is Gears of War 3, Halo Reach, and Call of Duty Black Ops... Though Rock Band 3 surprised me when they used an actual guitar and played the game with it. Wonder when Guitar Hero would start doing that, come to think of it, they should have implemented it before Rock Band did, since you know... "GUITAR" Hero?

Well the convention's not over... and there's still lots of video games and new gadgets to reveal. So I'll have to wait and see.

[BeefJeRKy]

Rock Band has always been better than Guitar Hero mostly coz they are the team that developed 1 & 2.

Maybe because you are one of the few who actually hates it that much.
