I think tonight will be pretty crazy. No sleep. Lack of focus on anything but the internets and bad bedside manners. It's all going to happen. And then when I finally get to sleep around 3am I'm going to wake up and my eyes will bleed from their sockets.

Hopefully you won't have to use the last item.

And at least the Kleenex has dual purpose, for both outcomes: Spunk and tears

:lol :lol

Have you checked the "Alliance" thread? Or any other MS thread that is well....good for MS.

Lets just say...this place....isn't exactly "MS land".

I was just downstairs for my coffee break and I noticed that they had a new issue of EGM with Zelda on the cover. Says there's new screens, that there's screens of rev games and that they talk about the controller secrets. I'm sure this is old but what was that all about?

Time magazine has a Zelda shot; it looks really good. I know it's new because there's a big ass revolution controller HUD on there. There's also a pic of the Tennis game.

No idea about EGM, if someone can confirm there's new stuff in there i'll pic it up and scan it when i get home in 2 hours.

The tennis game does not appear to have mario in it (none of the Mario characters are in the time shot). It seems to have cartoonish kid characters.

I find it hard to believe that a canadian newstand got the issue before subscribers in the states. Doesn't ANYONE have the issue? Link is on the cover.

I think there's something wrong with all of us. I keep trying to walk away from my computer but then I think, "something happened." And I run back.

I figure this is as good a place as any to ask, was there any confirmation on if the VC games will have online multiplayer or if it's just straight emulation?

Can´t remember anything like that being confirmed, and my guess would be that nothing like this will happen... unfortunately :(

According to a guy on n-philes who works at gametrailers, the next mario game is called Mario Galaxy. He saw the name as the show floor equipment was set up.

Sounds bad and good at the same time, bad is the name but good to what it implys.

One of the non-revolution/Wii IGN editors on the crappy E3 livechat just said that he admits that some of the Wii titles are marginally excite-ing.

So is that almost an excitebike confirmation?

It was pretty much confirmed by Gaybrush a few days ago. It's almost a lock for the realistic racing game Reggie was talking about earlier.

Well, Im really waiting to see what Nintendo does after that PS3 disaster showing. Wonder where Reggie is? :D

I would kiss his ass if he made a cool (or better yet aggressive) comment about the sony conference and the rip off controller just to hear the crowd reaction.

I just wanted to say, people should be prepared for a laggy stream during the Nintendo conference. The Sony feed slowed to a crawl and crashed a few times. No way Nintendo's stream survives.

Tomorrow is going to be a huge fucking party on Nintendo's stage. I seriously can't wait, the entire company is going to be swimming in cotton candy and the audience will just roar with aproval after Sony's display of cowardice and poor marketing ability tonight.

I wonder if Nintendo will mention the gyros added to DS3. It will be interesting to see if they respond to it at all. I thought Sony didn't do "gimmicks" :lol

I agree but think it won't be all that bad. Afterall there will be multiple sources streaming the conference.

I can't wait!

Well there are at least 5 places with the Nintendo stream, hopefully they can share the load. Or does it not work that way? I'm not very technically minded.

The Sony stream was absolutely perfectly smooth for me up until it went doen 3/4 of the way through, I couldn't believe it. After that it was a mess. But it gives me hope.

Are you guys all checkin koam's Zelda thread still? Lots of stuff in there, some good, some bad.

Well seeing that some people are treating post counts as some kind of pissing match.. Heres my pointless contribution to the Nintendo thread...

Im holding out for a Wii Waverace game for launch. Could this be the super secret racing game?

And Reggie should come onstage and say 'Sony PS3' and then burst out into uncontrollable laughter which goes on for just long enough to be surreal (Im thinking 'Family Guy' style)

2am Nintendo conference Australia time - Ill be staying up to watch it and see GAF meltdown :)

Nintendo couldnt have dreamed of a worse Sony conference if they tried really really really hard. This e3 has exceeded my expectations so far!
