    Interesting Nintendo at LGC07 article

    http://www.joystiq.com/2007/08/27/lg...-target-audie/

    The tour started off inside the press-only section of the Nintendo booth. Hidden behind the white curtains and giant Wii disc slots were a number of stands showing off some of the big titles that will be out for Wii and DS this year, namely Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Pokemon Battle Revolution, Zack and Wiki, Flash Focus and English Training. Within fifteen minutes, and after a short video showcasing these titles, we were led outside into the public area. "We are now leaving the old world of video games," said the translation device in my ear, "and entering the new world of video games." My heart sank. Given the choice, I'd much rather stay in the "old" world of video games.

        What's AFTER those games I wonder.

        There is another REAL Wii Zelda coming out right? Maybe? Soon? Later?

          What's after the current batch of upcoming PS3 and 360 games? there's GTA4 early next year, but what after that?

            Playstation 2 games are considered old-school these days. That depresses me.

              Mercenaries 2? Assassins Creed?

              Or did that already come out?

                neither are out yet. both will be out before the end of the year, I believe.

                    it's a confusing quote in that context.

                    The tour started off inside the press-only section of the Nintendo booth. Hidden behind the white curtains and giant Wii disc slots were a number of stands showing off some of the big titles that will be out for Wii and DS this year, namely Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, Pokemon Battle Revolution, Zack and Wiki, Flash Focus and English Training. Within fifteen minutes, and after a short video showcasing these titles, we were led outside into the public area. "We are now leaving the old world of video games," said the translation device in my ear, "and entering the new world of video games." My heart sank. Given the choice, I'd much rather stay in the "old" world of video games.

                    We stepped into the public area of the Nintendo booth, three times the size of the private area, and filled with DSs loaded with Brain Age and Flash Focus, a make-your-own Mii station and a gang of Wii Sports and Wii Fit stands. Here we remained for the next 45 minutes, listening to various lectures. The first felt very much like a "it's not you, it's us" speech detailing, basically, how much more successful the Wii and DS are compared to anything else on the video game market. "But look how much money we're making. How can we not abandon hardcore gamers?" was all I heard.
                    Basically, I think nintendo was saying that the games in the first paragraph were "the old world of video games" (even though they were on the Wii) and the games in the public area (brain age, wii fit) were the future. games a lot of people have no interest in, myself included.

                      When Nintendo gets cocky they talk out thier butt.

                      Much like Sony did.

                            Well to be fair I don't know why we should be listening to this guy when every other sentence was about being bored and not paying attention.

                              I'm tired of all of this hype.

                              I guess you could say I'm BOARD of it...
