Even I'M starting to believe them, and that isn't right for me. They'd have to pull something off and fast *Goes into corner and sobs*

Meh. I think Nintendo is making a rather large mistake doing this. people will lose interest, before the revolution ever gets into stores. Bad marketing plan if you ask me.

Apparently everything will be revealed by... the end of the year according to Reuters.

Sadly, I call December 31st.

Well, it's the 21st. Any big conspiracies revealed?

I still get the feeling Nintendo's screwing with us.

It would have been nice to see Nintendo go against the grain and have another special presentation at the end of E3, although the odds of that happening are pretty slim.

I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Nintendo is just screwing with people's minds at the moment, which is a nice little tactic if they want to treat their fanboys like lemmings.

As far as a real first look (again, BARRING ANY SPECIAL SURPRISES TOMORROW)... Gut feeling says late August/early September in either Tokyo or New York.

Ziff: Can't really call it good or bad... they might take a page out of the Microsoft book and mess with people's minds big time causing some hardcore fanboys to go coo-coo. (Halo 2, Xbox 360, etc...)

The problem is, from a business perspective, this is a shunt to the North American market...If you don't reveal at E3 when your competitors are...Errrrr...You have to make a home-turf announcement, a joint international announcement (which is expensive and not very profitable for publicity) or wait for TGS or another trade show. Unless Nintendo pulls some hard hits tonight or tomorrow they've made a really bad business move with Revolution.

But from what I've heard the Revolution is MORE than promising. I am also excited about the GBA Micro and the new energy that they just gave over to the DS. The problem still stands that Nintendo, although really pulling out some neato things, isn't pulling hard punches and is pitching only to their hardcore fans. I mean, sure it worked with the DS, but that was more luck than anything. Their competitor came out of the gate in North America seeming ridiculously incompetent and still seems that way. You can't hope to fall on luck a second time...This just isn't a bright business move.

wow, nintendo hasnt even sent out any dev kits to the developers yet, so im guessing that the revolution will be the last console released...how disappointing..I wanted to hear something more interesting then what they had to say about the games...not to mention there are no confirmed revolution games....good thing im not the most die hard nintento fan, or I would be really disappointed with nintendo right now.

Oh my god, how terrible, all we got was a lot of information on the awesome new Zelda game, info on the new Kirby game that shows that it'll be one of the best in the entire series, stuff the new Mario DS platformer NEW Super Mario Bros. showing it'll be like a SMW3, Mario and Luigi 2 with four characters and possible more YI refrences, confirmation that the Revolution will have a SSB game at launch, will be able to download NES, SNES, N64, and more games onto it to play, lists showing that like 20 developers are making online games for the DS, a look at a prototype Revolution model, the Gameboy Micro, the smallest and hopefully cheapest incarnation of the GBA, the possibility of a Kid Icarus Revolution game, and more stuff I might of forgot, plus people dug up a fun little theory that while possibly fake now is still quite interesting! This is the worst E3 ever!

Ok!

They just had an interview with Miyamoto at IGN.

We can forget about any more stuff this E3. Even Mario 128 seems to have faded. I guess this leaves me with the conclusion that this E3 is a HUGE disappointment for Nintendo fans everywhere. At least for me it is...

Read it here and cry...

I like it how it comes together.

E3 is over tomorrow. Something big better come from the Nintendo camp...

Although I find the lack of the Revolution button on Gamespot, IGN and 1up to be interesting...To say the least.

hopefully nintendo will open up today or tomorrow, and tell us what they are planning, its getting annoying just waiting to see what games they have planned for sure, and if what they showed is truly the actual console.

Ok!

I was already almost sure that Nintendo would give more information later on. Since Reggie claimed before E3 that Mario 128 would be shown. And did we see it yet? Nope...

This story is really too weird to be true. But for now, it looks like it IS true...for some part at least...crazy it is.

That really doesn't have anything to do with this ither. The blog is my way to display interesting media from E3. The Reggie thing is real. He plain came out and said it. You don't have to believe me, but at least I know the truth. I'm leaving for E3 again in 10 minutes. Would you prefer that I meet him again and get a video of him saying it? Or maybe take a pic of him with him holding up a sign claiming so? (As if I need to prove it to anyone.)

No my biggest concern, if you go to the nintendo Booth again:

Region Lockout: Does Revolution play ALL GCN games? EU, US and JAP ones?

Else.. COngrats, you met Reggie, THE Reggie, the Ass Kicking and Nametaking Reggie.

Congraturation.

And now, I posted that fact on Gamefaqs.

...it's going to spread like wildfire now. I really hope Reggie don't mind now. Did he say about anything about it being top secret? ;

Nice that you meet him, you meet Reggie you, Shiguru miyamoto saw you and even wave. Man, I wish I could get on E3.

Um... As irrelevant as that was, I'm glad you perceive the photograph to be amusing.
