they dont have enough games to show and the games they do have to show will be overshadowed by next gen console the ps4 and the xbox one with their superior technology. only nintendo extremists will watch the nintendo directs. the wii u is finished and thats why the sales are so low month after month. even reggie was only hailing the nintendo fans because he knows only nintendo fans will watch it.

reggie is lying in this video just like he was lying on cnn saying that wii u games look way better than ps3 and xbox 360 games. look at my bubble count and i wear it as a badge of honour that i can speak my mind and speak the truth about nintendo and the wii u. nintendo fanboys remembers my name because i continually speak the truth and my opinions.

i remember saying that the wii u will be weak before the specs were released and i had a lot of abused shouted at me saying that wii was successful so wii u will be powerful. nintendo extremists also believed that the wii u would be 6 times the power of the ps3. the wii u is the weakest console this generation.

thank you nintendo extremists because your tears and sadness brings me gladness

thesavagelife74127d ago

@Hatsune-Miku face_palm - _ - you can't be serious....

MikeMyers4127d ago

Regardless if he's serious or not this could actually be a better way of seeing E3. It won't have a bunch of padding between games. They can also edit and fine tune the video so that from a viewers perspective it's more interesting.

Most of these E3 shows are all glitter with a bunch of awkward moments. NeoGAF will now have a tougher time creating amusing giffs, that will be missed.

One4U4126d ago

atleast Nintendo came face to face and said why ! look at MS , they are trying to hide from questions and fans !

MNGamer-N4127d ago (Edited 4127d ago )

Yes, I have tears. Tears of joy for all the wonderful new Nintendo games on the way this year. As for your opinion? I could care less and your comments are laughable at best.

wellard4126d ago

Its I couldn't care less. By saying "i could care less" means that you do in fact care quite a bit about what he is saying. Its not hard man, geez

BullyMangler4127d ago

yur so confused about what gaming is all about huh . . how much power does it take to outcompete the looks of Resi 1 Remake for the gamecube? and its barely starting to happen look at MGS 5 < heh . .

and since when do saLes determine somethings glory?

so yur saying justin bieber is more bad ass than biggie smalls?

check yurseLf before you break yourself

"thank you nintendo extremists because your tears and sadness brings me gladness"

This, ladies and gentlemen, got a 'well said'...

LiberatedAnimal4126d ago (Edited 4126d ago )

Or just butthurt that Ninty will smash Poosoft again this gen.! lol

THEMIGHTYDOOVDE4126d ago

You're literally to stupid to insult.

AJBACK2FRAG4126d ago (Edited 4126d ago )

Lol! You said it all! The Wii U is the weakest console of this generation! Uh, the weakest console always wins the generation. The Wii U is underpowered purposely! I don't know if you ever heard of Gumpei Yokoi? He created the Game and Watch and the Game Boy in his spare time with left over parts laying around. He thought costly cutting edge technology actually hindered game development! Gumpei had a theory called Lateral thinking with Withered technology which basically means using older technology mixed with radical gameplay ideas. I think a great example of this theory is the Wii and the Wii U. First the Wii. Two Game Cubes duct taped together beat two video game consoles that utilized the best technology of the time. How? By using radical new gameplay ideas ie: the Wii remote and inexpensive technology. Nintendo in my opinion used the same theory with the Wii U. Older technology and radical new gameplay ideas via the game pad. Another thing Gumpei did at Nintendo was to be a mentor to a young Shigeru Miyamoto and he also developed one of the most maligned video game inventions in the history of video games the Virtual boy. Miyamoto said the Virtual boy was the beginning of Nintendo entering the 3d age. Wow!

Now the list,
1. Nintendo develops the best software period.
2. Their hardware is invulnerable. 3. Miiverse.
4. Lateral thinking and Withered technology.

@ 0:43

his reason is Nintendo is always looking for "new ways to suprise and delight"

so Nintendo is trying to be 'innovative' by not having a standard E3 conference

gamer424127d ago (Edited 4127d ago )

The problem is we don't exactly know how this is going to payoff. If this goes as well or better than past E3s than expect them to do this next year and expect others trying to cut costs by doing the same. If it doesn't go well, then we can expect them back on stage next year, but before any of that happens we need to see what happens this year.

Innovation means taking risks, something people say they haven't taken in awhile, but is this risk worth taking in the end?

Blastoise4127d ago (Edited 4127d ago )

Well whatever they say I still think it sucks

E3 is always about the big 3 conferences, I feel like I'm missing out on a 3rd of the show.

Nintendo Direct video's just won't be the same.

Edit: Lol Reggie is hilarious

nintendojunkie284127d ago

I don't know about you guys,but I really get the sense that Reggie's body is ready from that video.

linkenski4127d ago

The Regginator will always be watching us!

yugovega4127d ago

just like kinect 2.0 on the xbone?

linkenski4123d ago

I bet he's even watching us through the front camera in our 3DSes!

solidworm4127d ago

Cos theyve got nothing to show.

nintendojunkie284127d ago

I hope you like the taste of crow.

Filing Lawsuit for Infringement of Patent Rights against Pocketpair, Inc.

Nintendo and Pokemon Company have filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair Inc., the creators of Palworld, in Tokyo, Japan.

Number1TailzFan4d ago

Ye, Custom Robo Arena was a lot better than Pokemon anyways, now that's a game.

Eonjay4d ago

Interestingly this comes like a day after they announced they would be at the Tokyo Games Show.

Vits4d ago

We should all really hope so. Otherwise, this could lead to many issues, as they hold patents on numerous game mechanics. And when I say numerous, I truly mean it. Take this one, for example:

"Abstract: In an example of a game program, a ground boarding target object or an air boarding target object is selected by a selection operation, and a player character is caused to board the selected boarding target object. If the player character aboard the air boarding target object moves toward the ground, the player character is automatically changed to the state where the player character is aboard the ground boarding target object, and brought into the state where the player character can move on the ground."

In plain English, do you guys remember that super amazing mechanic where you surf on the water with a Pokémon, and then when you hit land, it changes to you walking? Yeah, they patented that.

porkChop5d ago

A patent lawsuit? What Pokémon-related patent could Palworld even be infringing that other similar games haven't? This makes no sense. Feels like Nintendo just trying to throw its weight around to bully competitors, just like they do with emulators even though they're legal.

Kaii5d ago

They can't Innovate their own IP, but when others are breaking the ceiling, they run to the courts, gtfo Nintendo/Gamefreak.

Companies' gatekeeping mechanics behind the patent system to stifle innovation, consumers will always pick the better product, it's not the consumer's fault that Gamefreak has sat on their lazy assess for years.

Kornholic4d ago

"Consumers will always pick the better product"

Since when?

swedishMeatwad4d ago

You can't argue with _subjective_ taste. Some people are going to like games you find crappy. I'm happy not everyone has the same taste.

Kornholic3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

@swedishMeatwad

PS5 Pro is obviously objectively the better product when compared to the base PS5, but the majority of consumers interested in a PS5 will not be picking Pro over base PS5.

There are countless examples like this out there.

The_Blue4d ago

Rather you like it or not COD has many accessible options and customization that allows for better experience than most other FPS.

Knightofelemia5d ago

The Palworld has been out since January of 2024 and now Nintendo finally decides to do something. I fail to see how Palworld is like Pokemon besides evolving monsters. There are other games out there as well where you can capture and level up monsters. Tales of Symphonia 2 does that capture monsters and have them fight with you and they evolve when levelling up. The two games might share some similarities but what game doesn't borrow from another game. I could understand if Palworld was just a straight on copy clone of Pokemon but it's not. Nintendo is starting to become a pain in the ass. Going full gung ho with rom sites that I can see, purposely taking down pictures from a strategy guide for Mario 64 the strategy guide never came to North America and Nintendo had the pictures taken down. Where does it every stop with Nintendo?

babadivad4d ago

Monsters don't evolve in Palworld

Software_Lover4d ago

It's because Palworld became a worldwide viral success. Nintendo can't fathom someone else being that popular when it comes to a small monster catching game.

VersusDMC4d ago

Nintendo is only acting now because they just finished a lawsuit which they won.

https://www.nintendolife.co...

Atlus should get on this and sue Nintendo as SMT came out before Pokemon. If Nintendo is going to play this game.

isarai4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

This feels like a scare tactic more than anything else. There's nothing here dozens of other games haven't already done, they're just mad this game showed people how much the pokemon series has been slackin and are desperately trying to make an example out of them.

How's about instead of spending all that money on court fees and lawyers you invest it into making pokémon better?

Profchaos4d ago

I think if it was a scare tactic it would have happened when the game came out I have a feeling they've been building a case for a while

isarai4d ago (Edited 4d ago )

It did happen even before the game came out, they tried several tomes before and nothing came of it

Profchaos4d ago

I was pretty sure the only statement they made was they would investigate

Final Fantasy Creator Considers Square Enix & Nintendo His "Hometown"

If Square Enix & Nintendo are his hometown what does that make Xbox?

OtterX15d ago

The red light district, where games go to w**** themselves for Gamepass cash.

Asterphoenix16d ago

Well Nintendo and Squaresoft is where he started. I totally understand why he doesn't want to do FF now. If so I'm happy for either a remaster of Last Story or a new entry/spiritual successor. Loved the battle system of Last Story.

porkChop16d ago

I just really want a new Lost Odyssey, or even a proper remaster with some QoL updates. Though I'd also love to see him work with Square on a new IP.

Profchaos16d ago

That's about as good as a confirmation that we will see ports to the switch2

Knightofelemia16d ago

Wish my parents bought me a NES as a kid I would have played the first FF game. But I was lucky to have a SNES I played a bit of FF6 and just went to Chrono Trigger. When the FF collection releases I-VI Collection Anniversary drops I will take my time to play each Final Fantasy.

Deathdeliverer15d ago

I mean… this is kinda obvious. The original final fantasy and its early sequels were on…
