Text 7 Jun E3 2011: Nintendo

Okay, just watched the Nintendo presentation, so hyped up right now!

It started with the 3DS. New games include:

  • Mario Kart
  • Starfox
  • Super Mario
  • Kid Icarus (again!)
  • And… Luigi’s Mansion! Nice to see that one again!

But enough about that, let’s move on to Ninty’s new hardware we’ve all been speculating about. Bringing in a new way to control games (how often has that been said in the past three years), they call it the Wii-U!

Not much was said about the console, it was all about the control device. 6.2 inch touchscreen, analog pads, accelorometer, there’s a lot in it! They showed some great ways to apply the technology too. But what really put the icing on the cake was the prospective game lineup! Titles mentioned were:

  • Lego City Stories
  • Batman: Arkham City
  • Assassin’s Creed
  • Tekken

In closing, Nintendo have put forward a press event better than Microsoft, but that’s not saying much Microsoft’s one was kinda boring! See ya!
