Updates as we go along.

Hmm, new Zelda for GC and Wii, eh? Hmm. Was considering getting it for GC, no questions, because I'm a little short on cash and I don't usually dish out on consoles come release day (Save the GC), but cheaper than any other console? Cool, very cool.

 

[Insano]

20+ Games that will be playable at e3.

You can say 27

 

[Drackard]

Can't f*cking wait, this is gonna be ace !

 

[VictimOfScience]

Hmm, this has my PS3 choice wavering if only because of the outrageous price!! I was planning on getting a GC just for Zelda when it was announced anyway, but now this looks like it might be it for me! The Wii and a DS Lite and a bunch of games for less than the cost of the PS3 or 360?? Yup, count me in!!!

 

[Asuka]

I wasnt going to get a Wii but after seeing this i think im going to have all the next-gen consoles!

 

[torso boy]

I was thinking of getting a PS3 first since I know there are a bunch of games that I'm going to want, but this changed my mind, I'll be getting a Wii at launch and wait for the PS3 to drop in price.

 

[PvtRyan]

What I wonder is, how do the games look? Revolution (I refuse to call it by its name tbh) was said to focus on gameplay with less emphasis on new tech. So is there a big difference comparing it to PS3/X360?

EDIT: NVM, found the trailer, looks good, but no PS3/X360 graphics, which is not important here I guess

 

[X-FacToR]

Did we get a concrete pricetag ?

 

[Zephos]

Impressive...Can't wait for Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (I think). Overall, Nintendo > all else.

 

[Cormeh]

It's funny, when you get past the plethora of numbers that come with hardware specs in terms of PS3 and 360, and see the Wii in action, it becomes apparent which of the three is truly next-gen.

 

[Fishlore]

Did we get a concrete pricetag ?

No, unfortunately. No release date either. Those were my only two disappointments with the show. Today is the day I'm really interested in. I want to hear people give honest reviews of the 27 games they can get hands on time with.

 

[The Mullinator]

Anyone see the Red Steel trailer? Amazing:

Wii + PC = All I need.

I want to hear people give honest reviews of the 27 games they can get hands on time with.

Yes indeed. These next 3 days are going to be very illuminating I think. I just hope they can help me make up my mind on what to get!!! 360?? PS3?? Wii?? PSP?? DS?? PC kit?? So many choices--so little money!!

Agreed, except I'm going to amend the last part you had there.

So many choices -- so little time to use them all.

Hahaha! Crap, I forgot about that. I'm not even really capable of playing everything I have now as much as I would like. Lousy work...:x

 

[JNightshade]

:O Resident Evil for the Wii!? YES! I thought Capcom had defected to Sony and MS...

this makes my day
