All I know is that I'm way more interested in what game's they'll showcase this E3 then the actual console. Sure, the new Console news is awesome, as long as the do the online correctly and efficiently, but, as with the 3DS, the gaming system itself does not = sales.
Give me F-Zero, Pikmin and a Fire Emblem for the Console and I'll start saving up money ASAP.
Ah, and for wishes, I wish for a new IP to be shown at E3 by Nintendo. And F-Zero. With online. A great Soundtrack and GX difficulty.
Well, can't wait for Tuesday 12:00 (the time E3 will start in Chile). I have classes very early and after a huge classless moment, I'll have classes really late, so I'm taking my Laptop and watching it in my Uni. I expect to watch it with a few friends, too, so this years E3 should be awesome. It's even a friend's birthday that day so I have an excuse to get drunkish =D
I hope the university's internet can hold up... it's pretty shitty.

Isn't that basically what we're doing, posting our reactions in realtime, y'know, only in text form. I can't really equate verbal reactions to forum reactions. Verbal is spontaneous, whereas message forums require typing and posting, and by the time the comment is online, the moment may have passed. Plus, I'd rather just focus on watching and absorbing the conference then worry about typing or reading comments at the same time. Maybe that's just me. Then when I do come here to read reactions, there's about 10 pages worth of praise and complaints that have little value outside of the actual conference.

Hmm... Does anyone know of any decent browser-based group chat areas? Perhaps if we could set up a NinDB forum group chat during the conference that could work better?
So long as they actually show some games and don't name it the Nintendo PüPü or something then I reckon I'll be happy ;D

Ever heard of Windows Live Messenger? I have the contacts of some of you.
Can we all get online at that time and start a group chat there?

Well, I mean that's one option but then we all have to exchange messenger information before the show. I'd quite like a browser-based one where we can set up a temporary chat area, post the password here before the show so everyone who shows up and wants to join in can, and we use that space.
Then once it's over... Close it down and post more reasoned reactions in their own topics over the next few days.
EDIT: Found one. I will post details closer to the time.

I suppose it's worth noting that the ever-insane Konami decided to have their E3 conference today, for some reason. Unless an NGP Silent Hill or a myriad of HD collections gets you off, there wasn't really anything too interesting.
...Except for this.

I dunno, I kind of liked the knee-jerk reaction posts. You know, let us indulge ourselves once a year. It's not as if we didn't revert to discussion afterwards, either in the E3 topics or in threads created for particular games.

Thanks to social networks, I managed to invite some local Nintendo fans to come over and watch the show in my house.
But who knows, I might join this superinsane chat anyway ^_^

You can have all your online friends in the background, and all your real-life friends around you. You'll never have felt so popularly nerdy! ;D

Now this is worth worshiping. Hopefully I'll be able to attend this, if my friends aren't available when E3 starts. If not, then I hope you guys enjoy nerdgasming it up (as we all will be).

My family and I will be GOIN' MOBILE on Monday (we're going to see the new X-Men movie, which is supposed to be stellar), and as such I won't be able to cover anything from that day. Which I think is mostly Microsoft.
I'd make a snide comment about "judging by how last year's MS conference was such a yawnfest..." but Nintendo's 2009 conference sucked only for 2010 to be a spray of awesome napalm jizz.
