    Also they are going to show gameplay of the new Paper Mario, and it got an October release date.

    Read on IGN they are showing a "Nintendo Game Demo" at 8pm GMT, could be the mystery RPG.

    Well, people have been moaning for years that Legend of Zelda hasn't innovated enough over it's lifetime, satisfied with rehashing and remastering existing mechanics and dungeons for each new iteration, becoming more jaded with each new release.
    They certainly can't say that this time.
    This appears to be the biggest shift in LoZ gameplay since Windwaker, perhaps since Ocarina of Time, and may well shake up the top ten lists for decades to come, as Ocarina of Time has done previously.
    Skyrim, Witcher, these have defined the free roaming, action orientated RPG as a gritty, sometimes formulaic and stereotyped cynical world.
    Breath of the Wild could well take that template and set it to one side, just as Splatoon has done in the face of the accepted norm in online shooters.
    And, with the NX version yet to be seen, even the likes of a remastered Skyrim on PS4/XB1 will find it difficult to compete.

    All any system really needs is a really, really good game and the right marketing to push it and the need to own it, into peoples minds.
    This Treehouse at E3 may have been the first effective attempt to make Nintendo relevant again, relevant to non-Nintendo fans.

    Was reading on mynintendonews that gamespot had 2 New Nintendo games scheduled for yesterday and today. Yesterday's slot was Zelda. Think today's is on at 6pm our time. Just checked and still saying "New Nintendo game!" (exclamation mark is theirs)

    And jus remembering as well that Wonderful 101 was first shown on ign or some site. As was Devil's Third

    Anybody watching this? Yapping on about some Pokemon mobile app/game/not sure. Didn't see it from the start.

    /Edit: Looks like some Pokemon AR game for your mobile phone.

    No, it's Pokemon, so I switched it off right away.

    Meh. Get on to Monster Hunter.

    It's mad, I'd say most people there don't know who he is or would recognise him.

    Me either. Had to Google him.

    So, next up is the new IP on 3DS, RPG of some sort.

    New RPG game now, by Grezzo (the studio that handled the Zelda 3D remakes) on 3DS
    Called Ever Oasis


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,999 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Ever Oasis. Off goes the video again. I'll check back in half an hour. It would be helpful if there was a clearly defined schedule.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,444 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Dear god the sound is terrible. Turn off your mics folks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Ace Attorney


    its a bit like final fantasy explorers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,999 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Box Box Boy. Sigh! Off goes the video AGAIN.

    Oh no, it's not the quality that's the problem. The first game was very good. It's that the show has been on for 2 hours and not a single mention of Wii U. And now they've just started the new Mario Party for 3DS. Off!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,444 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76

    Mario Party Star Rush on the 3DS.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Ace Attorney


    No mention of online multiplayer :(

    Yokai Watch 2 now. What about Wii U?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,431 ✭✭✭MilesMorales1


    Hope they give Yokai watch 2 an EU release date.

    Out July 15th. :)

    Ooh, maybe they'll have a demo available after the showing?

    Playing as a feylene - you don't run out of stamina and don't need hot or cold drinks when going into the opposite environments? Nice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,123 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    June 30th the demo will be available!

    2 codes for early access going out to some 3DS users! Fingers crossed!
