CHAT ROOM LOCATION EDIT: Here a link to the Nindb chat area that The Qu set upA song set to the tune of Winter Wrap Up.3 months have have passed since GDC was on it's way . . .
We entertained ourselves with backlogs of games, when we had time off from work to play . . .
But our patience is running out and the gaming media's predictions are feeling so cold . . .
And even though we love the hype, the rumors are getting old . . .
Now it's time to welcome E3 and every bit of info that's new and nice . . .
Hopefully your be watching a live stream, so you can experience the EXCITE . . .ment
Try not to be late, because of the Wii successor being shown it's guaranteed to be better than E3 2008 . . .
Welcome to the official thread of E3 2011Countdown clock says nearly a week left!World clocks for Nintendo's press conferenceThese time sheets came from NeoGAF, thanks to "Clipper" from GAF.  Important things to remember! (READ THIS PLEASE!!)- If your going to watch the live stream, find a site that hosts one, and update your media player/s beforehand if need be. Nintendo will be repeating what they did last year and hosting a video link a well, which worked quite well (for me) nor did I hear any complaints about it from anyone else. e3.nintendo.com/- The successor to the Wii will be shown as confirmed by Iwata. - Cammie Dunaway left Nintendo in October last year. Nothing more needs to be said about her. END. Now start predicting stuff people, we only have a week left! (this page took some time to make/write, please read it)

I have booked my time off work ready to update the site with news from Nintendo's press conference and anything from the show floor. Indeed, it would be awesome if we could contain all E3 discussion to this thread.
And Cammie Dunaway left? Hooray! Already off to a good start this year, Nintendo! ;D
I am teh excite.

I'm not gonna be here this year for E3, which is the first time I think I've missed it since being actively online.  I hope cool stuff happens while I'm out in the Southwest exploring Native American sites. |

June 8? For some reason I thought Nintendo's would be early June 6. Eh, news will leak out sooner, remember how well they covered up those NSMBWii cardboard cutouts last year?
I suppose this is also the thread where we spam our kneejerk reactions during the live conferences?

Will definitely watch it. I'll be more interested in the games than the system (which holds generally to me, not just in exhbitions), but I'm sure they will have a lot to show.
I don't think there will be much surprises though, since they have showed a lot of future games already, and those alone would be enough material for a E3 show.

I suppose this is also the thread where we spam our kneejerk reactions during the live conferences? Maybe we could save our kneejerk reactions until after the conference. Remember two years ago... (Mario Galaxy 2) - "Yay! Nintendo is back!" (Vitality Sensor) - "What the heck is that?! Nintendo is so screwed up!" (Metroid: Other M) - "I LOVE YOU NINTENDO! I was a fool to doubt you!" *one year later* (Metroid: Other M) - "I hate this game! Metroid is dead to me!"  |

When the time comes - and if my schedule permits - I will be doing a liveblog over at LVLs. I don't know if I'll be able to hit Microsoft and Sony, but Nintendo is definitely on my list.

Maybe we could save our kneejerk reactions until after the conference. Hell no! I love the kneejerk reactions! That's part of the atmosphere of E3! Bit of news announced, jump onto the forums to quickly type it (which at least 4 other people are also doing) and then back to the live feed! I need a bigger screen. It's not viable to have both video and forum up at the same time  |

SCE's show is 5 hours long. I doubt anyone could finish watching the whole thing live. And I always thought that two hours was too long for their conferences. They should learn to leave their audiences wanting more, and not wishing that it would end. Hell no! I love the kneejerk reactions! That's part of the atmosphere of E3! Bit of news announced, jump onto the forums to quickly type it (which at least 4 other people are also doing) and then back to the live feed! I need a bigger screen. It's not viable to have both video and forum up at the same time Last year, I watched the press conferences at the same time as TheSpeedGamers' Mario marathon (yeah, it bogged down my system), and they were watching the conferences as well, so it was fun to see their reactions in real time. It seems kind of silly for people to make snap judgments on the quality of the conference before it's even over, tho. People seem to get so wrapped up in trying to figure out whether or not they're enjoying something that they forget to just enjoy it on a visceral level. |

Supposedly, some screens for a Cafe Metroid have been leaked. According to Benzaie from TGWTG, it's just a mod of Unreal 3, so don't be fooled.
Just gettin' this in preemptively.

Isn't that basically what we're doing, posting our reactions in realtime, y'know, only in text form. I'll probably be checking it out live all by my lonesome self so I need an outlet for me to swoon over Regginator's sexy chin |
