Electronic Entertainment Expo is the glitzy video games expo that sees developers and publishers, big and small showcase their upcoming products. With the big names in gaming, the likes of Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft and more holding prestigious presentations to showcase their new and upcoming games. However, Nintendo have recently confirmed their decision to break free from the traditional E3 formula.
The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.
I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.
The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.
This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.
Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
And I say, ROCK ON!
I've always wanted Nintendo to host is own venue. It has so much more to offer than most of the rest that is could make an yearly events of its own I.P.s alone.
They could take it even further by showing off indie devs, whom I believe are the last bastion of gaming integrity. These overized corporate devs like EA and Activision have become cancer on the game industry.
Nintendo is making the right decision. E3 has little to offer them.
If they unveiled atleast two or three ips that weren't expected ontop of the games previously announced all with gameplay and or great in game tech demos Nintendo will most likely will be a upset though microsoft might have slot up their sleeves too.
