Email: Nintendo wins E3 2010

It’s a nice headline. I am sure people will flood you right now with mails.

It’s so nice how Reggie himself talks about technology as the tool, and that experience is their goal.
In fact, every bit of gameplay they showed was quite fun looking.

Their only flaw right now is that they are calling “franchises” what should be called “series”, I smell some Industry-speak there.
I envy those attending the conference at the Kodak Theatre, they got to play the 3DS!

I am sure this E3 will be remembered, just like the year the Wii was presented, forever.

I don’t mind being flooded with mails right now. I am curious to hear everyone’s reactions.

I think Nintendo easily had the best presentation of all of them. However, I must admit I bowed out of the Sony Conference because it was too damn long. It just went on and on and on. If I want to see something that goes on and on and on forever, I will just read myself.

But when I turned away from Sony’s conference, got some coffee, stumbled into a wall because I was put in such lethargy from listening to Sony, I discovered that while Nintendo had stopped their conference, they had not stopped announcing games. “What is this!?” I snapped awake. Where did all these 3DS games come from? Mario Kart? Starfox? Pilotwings? Street Fighter IV? Ocarina of Time? Holy cow!

In a business sense, it felt like Nintendo was not content to knock out Sony, but with Sony clearly down Nintendo kept delivering more and more punches. You had that urge that you want to go and pull Nintendo back as you would pull a man back who is constantly punching someone who is down.

I hope never to be on Nintendo’s bad side. They are ferocious. And their actions are really ripping Sony shred to shred.
