    Officially trade marked I believe, and Namco has "unannounced" titles they'll be showing, one of which is for the WiiU.

    Honestly if there's no mention of a new Metroid, I'll flip my desk.

    I honestly don't know if Nintendo even wants another Metroid, seeing as how hard Other M flopped.
    Add me on Steam, maybe.

    So now that I'm on my laptop, I'll post a bit more;

    I'm actually pretty excited overall. Alani and I are making Bingo cards to check off while we watch the stream tomorrow. Nothing fancy, just some general stuff to see who's better at guessing. Or I guess, who's better at predicting. Either way, I'll post some pics up of them when they are done.

    HAH, I totally decided to do Zelda Universe's "Zelda U Reveal Bingo", myself! Here's my card:
    Posted Image

    It's somewhat strategic, but it also includes some "off-the-wall" kind of predictions, just to throw some fun in there. I'm so looking forward to it.


    ALSO GUYS, the Digital Event has been "estimated" to be half an hour long. HOWEVER, it should be noted that this same place "estimated" the Smash Direct to be 30 minutes as well, and that was 39 minutes. It's a strict round-up/round-down. Not to mention that the Twitch and E3 schedule gives them a full hour time slot.

    That said, 30-45 minutes is probably what we'll get.

    If you're disappointed in the length, take solace: Nintendo has already gotten a lot of the fluff out of the way. They've released a slew of Wii U and 3DS eShop trailers for indies and whatnot. This means that they've NOT included all of these eShop games in their presentation, meaning the rest of the 30-45 minutes will almost assuredly be devoted to the heavy, meaty stuff.

    That's the hope, anyway. Someone brought up the point that, because there's a separate Smash discussion, and a Treehouse discussion, that Nintendo may just focus purely on games.

    Unfortunately, I feel as if we'll see a lot of Tomadachi Life.

    Either way,

    Oh I hope so hard that you'll be checking all four of those corners off, Ice.

    I also have a fear that Tomodachi Life will be discussed during the Digital Event... I mean, it'd be great for publicity - and the game is doing pretty good so far - BUT, I hope they relegate it to the Treehouse demos/talks and leave it out of the Digital Event presentation completely (unless they're revealing Mii fer Smash of course :o)

    I really hope there is not a Majora's Mask remake. I mean, it would be cool, but... I really hope there's not.

    Here is my Bingo Card:
    Posted Image
    Hoping to win tomorrow. I think there is some real promise in the second row, and i hope it helps me take home the win. The Paper Mario U is totally just an indulgent dream, and since I had a few that were likely to happen no matter what, I threw it in. What I would most like to see? A new Sunshine themed 3D Mario. I would sell my kidney to Nintendo for that.

    Nice cards, both of you! I need to print my Zelda one out for the show in a couple hours.

    Oh, and while I'm almost positive now that Sceptile will be making it into Smash (especially now that his Mega has been shown), I don't think he'll be announced at E3. I'm expecting him to be kept as a secret fighter.


    NOT IMMEDIATELY OBVIOUS PREDICTIONS (I share a few of these with you Alani):

    --"Emerging Markets" hardware shown (for investors)
    --New Metroid is shown
    --Smash 3DS Bundle
    --Pac-Man for Smash (probably announced later though)
    --Miyamoto's New IP
    --Mother 3 comes to the West


    EDIT:
    BOOM
    47 minutes long, confirmed. Hopefully this shuts down all the 30-minute negativity!

    Ours are printed out and ready to go. Where are you watching it? We have IGN's YT, Nintendo's YT, and the official E3 stream all open, just in case.

    I've got Normal Twitch, Nintendo Twitch, and e3.nintendo.com. I'll do their YT as well, good idea.

    "Just in case" is right. These things are NOTORIOUS for their terrible lag (although Smash and Mario Kart Directs were seamless, so maybe not).

    ABOUT 20 MINUTES


    Also I decided not to print mine... because it's almost entirely BLACK and I don't want to murder my ink cartridges. I don't know a way around it, so I'll just do it on my computer.

    So Time magazine recently had an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto. In it, he discussed 3 upcoming games, none of which have a confirmed title yet:
    - Star Fox U
    - Project Guard
    - Project Giant Robot

    Star Fox U

    Posted Image

    As part of Shigeru Miyamoto's brief to focus on the GamePad, Star Fox U will utilise the motion controls and physical inputs to control the ship — it's a spaceship shooter, with motion used for aiming and sticks used for controlling speed and moves such as barrel rolls. You can transform your Arwing into a Land Tank, while a Helicopter mode for two players that will include controlling both the chopper and a mini robot.

    Project Guard

    Posted Image

    As described in Time Magazine's interview with Miyamoto, Project Guard reportedly uses the GamePad as a "quick-jump map", which enables the player to quickly switch between different laser-firing security cameras in a heavily guarded fortress. The player is tasked with gunning down enemies as they attempt to storm and even sneak past their defences.

    Project Giant Robot

    Posted Image

    Project Giant Robot appears to be more a 'tech demo' than an established game, to be clear, but serves as a demonstration of Shigeru Miyamoto's focus to emphasize the gameplay capabilities of the GamePad. This project is described as "almost like a full-body game of Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots", in which the enormous robot's body and torso is controlled through motion, while sticks are used to punch and grab. The GamePad will show a first-person point of view, while the TV has a zoomed out perspective.
