what's up internet kevin here with TLD bringing us more III coverage this time with my reactions to the Nintendo press conference which overall was pretty painful to watch at the end it started off with a great beginning by showing off Pikmin 3 that was one thing a lot of people were expecting waiting for we're really happy to see and pretty much after that it slowly slowly fell down hill we still saw a few individual game announcements that were nice we saw gameplay for games we already knew about we saw Luigi's Mansion we saw Paper Mario for the 3ds we saw two new super mario brothers games one for the 3ds one for the wii u all of which looked well and good in tho themselves but there wasn't really a strong wow factor at any major part of the show outside of that very beginning with Pikmin other than those few individual games that really wasn't a whole lot than nintendo brought to the table I was kind of surprised because on Sunday they already showed off the controller and saying that the tablet can do and introducing the whole miiverse idea and as a result i was thinking they wouldn't really talk about that much this time instead they still talked about that awhile and then dedicated the rest of their time to having third parties come up and talk about their games most of which were ones that once again we either already knew about saw gameplay for or were just re-releases of games that we've already had just with new controls for the wii u now the way the nintendo tried to bring this all back in the end was by announcing a new game called nintendo land which from what i can tell basically looks like the wii sports equivalent for the wii u it's basically just an assortment of different minigames that make use of the new tablet controls while showing off you know popular Nintendo character is doing little different games the main when they show it off being a little Luigi's Mansion game hunting for a ghost which went on pretty much forever it was entirely too in-depth for what they needed to show at the conference you know I don't want to give people the wrong idea about me and how I feel about Nintendo right now I do really like what I've seen with the wii u's so far as far as some of the individual games and how they're using those tablet controls I was really happy with ubisoft's announcement of Rayman legends I liked what I saw for Pikmin 3 in the New Super Mario Brothers game but that really is all we've seen so far yeah we got to see a few other little games like wii fit u we sing but nothing that really wowed people nothing that swept them off their feet nothing that really would give nintendo the wow factor they need to be able to boost sales i have to say that at the end of all the press conferences i'm really surprised that the strongest one any of the three council properties it was Ubisoft because they were the only company that I really felt did the one main thing you're supposed to do at e3 surprise people with new games new IPs and interesting gameplay footage of them a lot of the major consoles showed gameplay for stuff we've already seen already heard of and then they introduced one or two new games which did look great but in of themselves weren't enough to justify an entire press conference Ubisoft was actually able to kind of catch people off guard by showing stuff like their first Wii U game Rayman legends of the big thing that a lot of people got buzz for was their new IP announcement for watch dogs which really was the biggest new game announcement I've seen for this conference so far well this is just a wrap-up for what we've seen at the press conferences for e3 hopefully we're going to see a lot more on the show floor because overall the press conferences weren't the best they could be we had a few individual good announcements but on the whole I'm hoping we'll see a lot more at individual booths as always guys thanks for watching our videos if you haven't gotten chance yet make sure check out my recaps of both sony and microsoft's press conferences if this is your guys the first time seeing us feel free to subscribe and if you'd like an easy way to help the channel go ahead and hit that like button and if you guys want to get up-to-date reactions for me on games that I'm currently reviewing or news that's going on in the gaming business you can follow me on twitter at TLD underscore Kevin and I'll catch you guys later
