I like the fact that it uses several motifs from Mario Paint (title screen, icons, etc.). I loved me some Mario Paint on the SNES as a kid.
The game designer game I really liked was WarioWare D.I.Y. Shame that didn't get more attention. It was genius.
I don't think NIntendo needs a press conference. They do pretty well with their Direct vidoes.
Not hyped for Pac-Man?!? And no mention of Captain Toad either? :)
I reviewed the third Gex game on PSOne back in the newspaper days. Platforming was basic and sometimes fun, but the constant talking got annoying. I don't think we'll see another Gex game, especially considering there's another Gecko on TV right now that has a bit more presence.
I'd like to go to it on Saturday, but It's probably too far and I can't drive anyway. Too bad it wouldn't be like E3 or PAX and they'd let me cut in line since I was a member of the press. :)
Oh yes there was most certainly a Best Game of E3 this year: Captain Toad! (either that or Pac-Man in Smash Bros.)
Oh there were TONS of Namco references in there. Galaga, Mappy, Dig Dug, Xevious, Pac-Land, Bosconian, and more!
Nah if any Tales characters make it to Smash Bros. it should be Grune. :)
Best part about Pac-Man being in Smash Bros. is that he's NOT the 'Ghostly Adventures' cartoon Pac.
Believe it or not, Kirby Canvas Curse is not one of my favorite Kirby games. Don't get me wrong, I like it and I'm glad there's a sequel. But I'd rather have Kirby Air Ride 2. At any rate, life seems a little better when you know a new Kirby game is coming along.
Is it wrong or weird of me to think that the best game I've seen at this year's E3 is Captain Toad?
I plan to post an E3 blog at the end of the week, so I hope you can take a look at it then. --Cary
I like that picture of Animal.
Ah! I'm so conflicted! Do i play as Kirby, Mega Man...or Pac-Man...? *explodes*
Is it wrong for me to think that my favorite E3 game so far is Captain Toad?
