Super Smash Bro's Wii U and 3DS Coming in 2014! E3 Trailer! Mega-Man Joins The Battle!

Nintendo was weak sauce as predicted. Not sure if they tied with MS, but probably a bit above. This was pretty much how All Access went:

"Hey, guess what everyone? We've got a game that you've all been waiting to see! We're about to show the trailer for it, which we know you've all been waiting a long time now to finally see and of course learn more about this game as well, so we're finally showing the video(s) to you. Along with another great first party title as well. This being E3 though, and me being the face of Nintendo, we've come unpaired as per usual (and by that I mean I made this video in my office here in Japan, with no pants, no effort, minimal script). So everyone, if you expected me to actually get a dress and try and give you some big lengthy conversation after each trailer, with something called 'details' that would include things such as 'specific release dates' then nandesuka? My English is not a so good two-day, solly. We also know that you've been complaining about how there's not enough games for the Wii U still, so guess what? Instead of giving you a brand new Zelda; we're going to give you a remake of one of the 'OK' ones in 'HD' and not show you anything at all from the brand new one (that's STILL in development) yet for a 2nd time! We got you again, suckers (see: Nintendo Fanbois)! Enjoy waiting till 2014 to be able to play anything you've even wanted to on (first party titles, obviously) our console! Microsoft is following our brilliant strategy of driving customers away by doing exactly what they DON'T want. Now our next plan will be to follow Sega. Since we've teamed up with them we can learn about how they did so well at failing with the 'Dream..something,' so we can put our plan in motion to follow their footsteps. It will be just like the early 00's where we'll slowly disappear from the console market, so we can make a ton of money just solely off our software! You see how big time Sega is?!? That will be us in 5 years or less! You will still rike Nintendo no matta whaaaaat! So at next year's E3 when we say Zelda is coming out in 2015 on PS4..you wont be surprised one bit! You're already used to the waiting anyway, so what's another 2-10 more years? It will be rike za Duke Nuke-um. Now here's a random SSB trailer to close."

Yeah, Nintendo was pretty bad. Now we know why they didn't want to spend the money on an actual event. They had hardly anything to show off. SSB and Mario Kart, yes, but really that was it. Zelda: WW HD is a remake. Once they started showing Bayonetta 2 gameplay you could tell how badly it's going to look when it comes out compared to the new current gen. Really though..where's (the new) Zelda? Metroid? Kid Icarus? Starfox? Luigi's Mansion? Dr. Mario even? They had hardly any 3rd party to show off (which came as no surprise because an EA developer called their hardware crap, 3rd parties have been jumping ship and all the other 3rd parties (who didn't sign with Nintendo) want to develop on the nexgen x86 architecture now. Most first party titles they showed that are even worth playing are....coming in 2014! I'm just wondering what's going on with Nintendo. Are they trying to get people to sell their Wii U's and lose enough customers? Because it seems they're trying to be done with the console market, once and for all, on purpose. After people get word of mouth about E3 or just watching for themselves then everyone is going to know how slow Nintendo is going to be about their releases and that's really all you'll be buying the console for. That's what you're weighing your investment on when you buy one. Do they honestly think they can survive now with their current 1980's business model? They don't dominate the market anymore. It's not the late 80's or 90's. I think they need to wake up, from this trance that they're in. and finally realize things have changed and that they need to as well or they're not going to make it (unless of course they just want to use up all their reserves to stay afloat). otherwise, they're going to be done with the console market pretty soon. Mark my words: Wii U = Dreamcast 2. :P
