[Garrett]

Just a heads up for those that aren't aware..

[Nintendo]

Yeah, I'm looking forward seeing some Wii U games. I'll have to record it, as I have to go to bed soon.

 

[Garrett]

They're supposedly revealing spec & some of the yet undisclosed features of the console at this event.

 

[Nintendo]

I thought Nintendo said they weren't going to announce specs and hardware stuff till after E3?

Yeah, the event tonight I believe is for specs and certain performance issues. The price and release date is what is due after E3.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I hope it has billions of RAM in it.

 

[Ian J]

Is there anywhere else I can watch the stream not being a facebook user.

 

[Ian J]

Never mind, found it here: http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo_direct

 

[Prometheus]

^ Try here.


EDIT: Bah, ninja'd.

 

[Ian J]

Woo Hoo!, that's the 1st time I've ever Ninja'd anyone h34r:

 

[Prometheus]

Haha, congratulations. :lol:


Also, another stream is available from the UK's Official Nintendo Magazine, right here, too, to supplement the other options.

 

[Caine]

I praise him for presenting this in English, but...damn... this is more monotonous and boring than ever.

 

[Prometheus]

I had fun. I've never had a connection good enough to watch a live-stream of anything before. :lol:


It was probably a good idea to get the small things that were covered out of the way prior to E3, so that they can focus on the important stuff there: Games.

 

[Jumpman]

Oh Crap it's over? What time did it start? I was napping, did I miss anything good?

Amen to that!


Anytime they have something broadcast out of Japan, it throws me off due to the time and such. Plus this really wasn't of much interest to me, so I didn't bother to know the start time.


E3 is one state over and in my home town, so I never miss the press confrence during the week. Oh Yeah! I'm actually hoping to go back to the show at some point, as 2005 was the last E3 I attended. Then Jr. was born the following year, and he takes up all my extra time and money currently! :lol:

You didn't miss a lot - just some showcasing of some Nintendo Network/connectivity features, and a pretty hilarious tongue-in-cheek video (which, refreshingly, saw no reason to take itself seriously, and knew it) to demonstrate a few of them.


It was good fun, but nothing to particularly worry about having missed.

 

[Jumpman]

I'm currenty rewatching it on youtube. Technology is grand aint it?


So far it's looking pretty damn cool. Nintendo is for sure getting with the times, as it looks like social gaming is going to be real big here. Of course with "N" spin on things. Very Cool!

He's presented in Korean before and he doesn't even speak Korean. These Nintendo head honchos are very determined.
