    Sad but true.

    Its a shame because metroid prime is better than any Kirby game ever

    Having just won the closest game of Kirby's Dream Course imaginable, this is definitely not true.

    Metroid even ripped off Kirby by making a pinball game.

    aren't nintendo not going to e3

    Nintendo just doesn't do conferences anymore, they do a special Direct (which is basically just a cheaper, easier way to do a conference) and they absolutely have a booth there

    Sega isn't going this year, and Nintendo just isn't showing Zelda

    Last year's Direct was by far the best conference at the show. A well-paced, information-dense show where the only padding was entertaining sketches. I would be really happy for the other big guys to take a similar approach in the future.

    Technically Kirby was ripping off the 1950s.

    Sony could totally pull off Directs with their own personal goof troop of Shu Yoshida, Adam Boyes, and John Drake

    Do Microsoft executives even have personalities

    Is that allowed yet

    there's that one guy who used to do Microsoft's video marketing materials, the most enthusiastic exectutive, I forget his name. He's retired now and owns an NBA team I think?

    The CEO ain't gonna do some goofy video for the Xbox division

    All they have right now is Phil Spencer, and he just seems to permanently give off a smarmy vibe to me

    well I mean, Reggie does goofy videos
    and we're looking at what Nintendo's marketing does right that Sony and MS could benefit from emulating

    I don't know if the internet ruined Reggie for me or if I just don't like him that much.

    For once, Nintendo does something that the other console guys should be replicating but aren't. Oh how the tables have turned

    Still really disappointed their Miis weren't released as free DLC. Or Amiibos. I want a Reggie Amiibo.

    That peripheral they released for it is pretty nice, but is such an obvious marketing tie in for the 3ds.

    I'd rather they come up with a new portable. It's been nothing but DS revisions since 2004.

    Well, Samus just got a World of Nintendo action figure, and there's an upcoming Metroid. Considering it's just Mario and Zelda figures other than that (counting DK as Mario related) that says there's at least someone who still gives a damn about Metroid.

    Don't be silly, Nintendo's not making an actual new Metroid game

    If the information I have is correct, the demo will have 1 map playable online, 1 map playable for the local multiplayer Battle Dojo, and the first level of the campaign

    the Splatoon Direct will begin in about 5 minutes

    And I have to leave the house literally as it starts and drive for the duration of it

    This world is harsh and cruel

    They performed better financially than MS and Sony during the gamecube era even though it was the worst selling console of that generation

    They can more than afford to wobble for a few years while they iron out the direction they want to go
