yeah, Nintendo kicked ass, which they really needed to do. I'm glad and excited about the future.
Nintendo wins E3. For me at least.

E3 has been saved!
Yesterday we all saw the reason we (or I) give a damn about E3 and boy was it awesome. An I was tweeting like a madman yesterday if you follow me on twitter. Here is the video but as usual, watch it and I'll show you my favorite announcements:
Now that you've seen the awesomeness here are my favorite announcements:
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker: Just one thing to say right now and it's finally! Toad has his own game! I'm glad he finally has his own game, well Captain Toad. It looks really great and I don't know why but it does remind me of Wario's Woods in a way since that game was puzzle based and in the Captain Toad game, you have to solve some puzzles to go through the level. Not sure if it'll be retail or digital game but it was a real surprise to see Toad finally get his own game. Now we need a Waluigi game.
Bayonetta 2: I was already interested int he game but it looked really awesome. But what really sold it for me was that they are including the first Bayonetta game with this. That is awesome since I never tried the first one plus adding Nintendo costumes was a nice touch. I was really close to getting the first Bayonetta game on the PS3 this week but glad I didn't get it since I'm now getting 2 games for the price of 1.
Hyrule Warriors: We finally got a release date for it and that's cool and all but wow, they added Midna and Zelda in the game and that is just awesome. I'm really digging Zelda's new design, she looks badass yet has a regal appearance to her. And Midna, she is just awesome. I hope they add more characters to the game, like Ganondorf and maybe Toon Link. Really excited for it and I hope they give it an online co-op thing.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: This game just looks awesome because of the tranforming mechs. When I first saw the opening I thought it was a Metroid game because the music sounded likeMetroid Prime 3's menu music. But it looked really great, and it's coming out next year too. That way I can beat Xenoblade.
Mario Maker: I'm not sure how many people are excited for this but I am really excited for this because creating things always appealed to me. Plus now we can create our own Mario levels. Not only 8 bit Mario but NSMBU stlyed levels too, hope we get some SMB2,SMB3, and a SMW creator mode. In fact this game could become a Minecraft styled game for the Wii U.
Splatoon: It looks really cartoony and it looks really neat. Not sure what else to say about this but it looks like a neat twist to multiplayer shooter games, it's not violent but it looks fun. One thing I can say is that the demo had alot of fish.
Yoshi's Wooly World: Tell me the first thing you don't think is go awww when you see this. It looks really great and it was nice to finally see it in action. I love it that they are giving 2 player co-op but it would be nice it there was an online co-op mode in tthere but if they don't do that, it's okay. It would be neat if they had a Yarn Kirby cameo in there.
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse: My brother was hoping for a new Kirby game on the Wii U, a 3D one but what he saw was even better. A sequel to Canvas Curse! My brother was really happy with that and he's really excited for it. It looks cool. Everything is made of caly, infact I started calling Kirby Klay Kirby. It looks great and it was a very neat surprise.
Amiibo: Sounds like amiigo. Anyway there was already news about Nintendo NFC figures before by Iwata but who would of thought they would use it for Smash Bros? There was a rumor about it but we finally have it. The idea is pretty cool and loving the figures but the bigger questionis how much is this going to cost? I mean the Skylanders figures are like 7 or 8 bucks and now we have Nintendo ones so they are obviously going to be like 10 bucks or so. Hopefully not because I plan on getting all the Smash Bros ones they have. I'm really hoping for a Rosalina and Zero Suit Samus one. I just hope they don't make any rare or limited edition ones. But heaven forbid if they make some out of all 718 Pokemon...
Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire: I don't know what to say but wow these remakes look really awesome. I love all the new changes they are adding and the new starter Mega Evolutions. I'm digging Mega Sceptile moslty because he was the starter I chose in Ruby and Emerald and that he is a grass and dragon type now but Mega Swampert looks really cool too. Can't wait for this, but now I'm not sure if I'm more excited for this or SSB on the 3DS.
I think this was the game everyone was waiting for and dear Arceus did it look incredible. It looks like a mix of Wind Waker with, IDK what else but looks cartoony, alomost either 80/90's cartoon style with some anime style thrown in there. Heck I don't know what I'm talking about but it looks amazing and get this, there are sources saying that that wasn't Link in the trailer? But wow, the portion of the world that we saw looks amazing. I cannot fucking wait for that, fuck everything else in 2015, and I don't think I've been this excited for a Zelda game since Twilight Princess. I'm really excited for it and 2015 cannot come any sooner.
Surprise Smash Bros Announcements:
Palutena for Smash Bros: I am really happy we got another female character and it's Palutena1 I loved her commentary in Kid Icarus Uprising and she was hilarious when she talked to Pit. Loving her moveset too. But I wonder if Pit had to fight Palutena, would he fight her?
Pac-man in Smash Bros: I never doubted this would happen but glad it finally did and it was a neat surprise. Pac-man is finally in Smash Bros Wii U.3DS! We finally have all the important mascot characters in one game and that just brings a tear to my eye. I was planning to make a seperate blog for this but thought I'd kist squeeze it in here because I don't want to bombard anyone with the same blog others have obviously made. My brother is really excited for Pac-man too and so am I. His moves look really cool and we saw a Mr. Game and Watch teaser with the Pac-man at the end. Could it mean he's in the game too? But a really great surprise but I know someone here is certainly really happy with this.
So what did you think of Nintendo's E3 press thing? For me they won E3, I'm sure the others have cool announcements too but to me it's always been about Nintendo because they just makes games that I will always enjoy and have fun with. Plus I think they had more varitey. Plus there will still be more announcements later today like an unnannounced 3DS game that people are saying it's either a Metroid game or Majora's Mask 3D, I'm saying it's the later but with Nintendo we never know what's going to happen. Plus Star Fox Wii U will be out next year and Miyamoto demoed 2 new games which looked really interesting. So thanks for reading and later.
