No sound?? Should watch it later properly with the sound. No one here should spoil anything about the sound.

Star Lord

Oh I will, I did want to hear what the Zelda: Breath of the wild trailer sounded like really badly...

Andrew76

Pac1Man

The Motorhead soundtrack for Zelda is quite the suprise!

I've been rewatching the Zelda video while they yap about Pokemon. It looks much better, the streams framerate was real bad. Looks much better there now. So much crammed into that trailer. GameXplain would make a week long analysis video from it alone. I want to watch it some more but I don't know when the Pokemon section ends. Are they doing the full hour?

Mr E

There is a lot to be said for the short 5 minute presentations in the MS/Sony conferences. I'm a bit bored of Pokemon already. Seen it all before.

To be fair MS and Sony have their drawn out little shows like this too, just that Nintendo didn't have a big conference. But I'm not sure putting this at the start of the stream was the best idea, although I'm sure Pokemon fans would be into it.

Andrew76

Jeez, how long are they going to be playing this for??

sligeach

So much flora and fauna in the Zelda video. Deers, horses, ducks, eagles, boars, apples, acorns, mushrooms, other small birds, herons, bees, honey and other flowers and trees.

I want keep watching it but I'm afraid they'll suddenly cut back.

Cheers. Will check back just before then.

Ah yeah, no doubt tons of folk are loving the Pokemon stuff.

I think it's interesting that the Zelda title 'Breath of the Wild' is very non-specific compared to the last few titles.

Tri Force Heroes
A Link Between Worlds
Skyward Sword
Spirit Tracks
Phantom Hourglass
Twilight Princess

All focusing on either a game mechanic or a character in it. Of course 'Breath of the Wild' may involve either 'Breath' or 'the Wild' in it somehow, it's just a little less specific than other titles in the series.

Yeah, turned it off there. Good luck to that. I'll just watch the trailer clips & save myself the time.

Same ive watched it a few times now, getting a sort of monster hunter/ xenoblade x vibe, i really hope its something like that, the part of the trailer where link is cooking the food on the pan is very monster huntery and the big bosses/monsters in an open world would be awesome in a zelda game, Like xenoblade X's big monsters dotted around the open world it would be cool just to stumble across and fight one without expecting it.

After 42 mins its Austria 0-0 Hungary

Just for all you footy fans that are watching E3 instead

Pac1Man

On the pan he has mushrooms, apples, acorns and a nice big juicy steak. Most likely from the boar he slaughtered.

Edit: And there's also a drumstick from some bird, maybe one of the ducks.

Gonzo

had to leave the nintendo e3 stream, got really bored very quickly after they went onto Pokemon.

About to finish up the pokemon section for anyone who wants to switch back over
