I'm surprised they even mentioned NX. I know people figured they would keep it on the low down to prevent Wii U cannibalization.

Hmmm Skylanders and Amiibo crossover. Thank god I haven't gotten into them at all.

Pity to the wallets of those who have children.

Those Mario levels on graph paper would be amazing to see in person.

LOL, those poor Goombas underwater look hilarious.

Poor showing for Nintendo from my perspective.

Nothing that is really a new announcement.

Mario Maker, Star Fox, but nothing new for Wii U.

Lots of mini game type of games for 3DS (Paper Jam, Zelda Tri-Force, Metroid Mini Games).

Disappointing. Kind of feels like Wii U is dead and NX is coming soon. Could see the next Zelda being pushed to that console.

Not a great showing by Nintendo. Seemed like a promo video more than an e3 press conference.

Only two games really looked a little interesting:

Star Fox Zero
Mario Maker

The rest is pretty weak. I feel bad for parents who's kids are really into Skylanders though.

Will Paper Jam be as disappointing as Sticker Star?

Probably. Looks like Nintendo is continuing with the worlds system that hurt it.

Makes sense for small developers but to see Sony announce this at E3 was kind of surprising.

Is this going to become more common?
I think its more about marketing and it seems to be working, there is a real buzz about it around the internet. FFS that guy dropped 10k its trending everywhere.

FF7 Remake and a new Shenmue are probably two of the most talked about video games that fans have wanted for years

It's been beat to death, but Nintendo really needs to make a console based, open world Pokémon game.

Yeah that might as well be the Wii U final nail in the coffin.

When you announce more games for your handheld then for your main console at E3 you are likely near the end of the device's lifecycle.

Looks like PS4 exclusive for Nier.

Sony really delivering for fans of Japanese content this E3.

Tomb Raider looks great. Looking forward to the PC release, whenever that will be.

Tomb Raider looks good, first one was a underrated game.

Worry for it though as it didn't get a lot of hype the first time, and now it is pretty much head to head with Fallout 4 and Star Wars Battlefront.
