California = PST

All times are pacific standard.There's a pre-e3 Nintendo thing today.
In like 30 minutes.

I think it has to do with Wii U's hardware, some pre-recorded business or something i heardThis is the first E3 in... forever that i've actually been interested in what Nintendo is up tohttp://www.ign.com/events/e3http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/03/e3-2012-nintendo-details-wii-u-hardware-functionalityhttp://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/03/wii-us-gamepad-revealed

"Wii U GamePad."
First up, the controller has been given an official name. It's being referred to as the "Wii U GamePad."Next, support for near-field communication is confirmed. As hinted at in Ubisoft's Rayman Legends trailer – which leaked to the Internet earlier this year – the controller will be able to interact with objects placed on its surface to activate a variety of in-game effects. (The square marking on the left side of the controller's surface indicates the placement spot, as many had guessed. Nintendo was quiet on specific examples of NFC, but that's probably just because the company doesn't want to reveal its software line-up until the Tuesday morning press event.The other mysterious square, placed under the lower-right corner of the screen and sandwiched between the Power button and Battery light? That's the TV Control button – which, again, is exactly what many people guessed it would be based on the leaked image. Pressing it will control the action of having your TV screen's image jump to the handheld screen for portable play, and vice versa. You can also use the GamePad as a remote control for your normal television viewing.The analog control sticks are longer, now confirmed to be replacing the shorter, 3DS-style slider pads that the controller originally had in place when revealed at last year's E3. A new detail, though, is that the sticks are now clickable -- an extra button's hidden underneath each one.The GamePad will also include gyro and motion sensors to pick up player movements.

Mii Universe details
http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/03/e3-2012-nintendo-introduces-the-miiverse

When the system is first powered on, players will see a home screen full of all their friends Mii characters - a "Mii Universe," as Iwata described it. It will act as a communication hub of sorts, where players can see their friends Miis gathered around whatever game they're playing.The Miiverse will also allow players to share in game assets, like screenshots, with each other, and to send each other messages during a game. Players can also send each other hand-written notes, much like in the 3DS's Swapnote application. Your Miiverse will be accessible from Wii U, 3DS, mobile devices and online.

Looks like Nintendo finally figured out it needs to seriously integrate the internet into its console. Only took an entire generation.Wii U Pro Controller
http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/03/e3-2012-nintendo-shows-off-wii-u-pro-controller[quote]looks like thats the end of the hardware and they're now talking about some games, I feel those a new thread worthy and will let someone else deal with that

So the Zelda Orchestra will be there again. I hope this means there's going to be a concrete Zelda announcement.Wishful, I know.

added nintendo pre e3 presentation on archived conferences for those that missed it

Hahahahahaha, oh wow, the Microsoft conference was terrible.
I can't wait to see the shitstorm that'll be the EA & Ubisoft conferences.

I didn't actually see it.Usher?

What.
Xbox smart glasses?
Sucked so hard, didn't expect less.
EA's presentation also sucks.
I don't want a nfs game with social features.

darkrequiem · #12I didn't actually see it.Usher?

Yep, Usher, and Reddit, and 9Gag, and just about everything else that doesn't belong in videogames.

"PAY ANOTHER FIFTY DOLLARS FOR FIVE EXPANSION PACKS LOL"
"WE'RE THE BEST COMPANY EVER, LOOK, EVEN THE UFC GUY SAYS SO"
"I HEARD YOU LIKED CoD RIP OFFS, SO HERE'S ANOTHER FIVE!"
"NEED FOR SPEED: BURNOUT EDITION GUYS!"
"OH, AND GUESS WHAT, WE DECIDED TO RIP OFF FARMVILLE WHILST SIMULTAENOUSLY SHITTING ALL OVER SIM CITY LOLOL"

I don't want to pay €50, I want them for free. Why won't EA take an example of ValvE in stead of Activision?

You're actually going to buy it?..

Replying to #17

I'm in a clan, so I'm kind of forced.
I hate the idea though, to spend money on overpriced map packs. Like, I don't even get a discount since I've already purchased b2k. Money whores.

THE FUCK IS THIS?!

Bows and arrows everywhere.
