I would say the Nintendo because of the WiiU, but they literally showed nothing about it. Also the stuff they announced, like EA games coming to the new console including stuff like Darksiders 2, really wasn't that exciting because it is just playing catch up with Microsoft and Sony. I was more happy with Sonys conference because they showed new gameplay of new games that looked great, while still showing us new stuff. Also they gave much needed details on the PS Vita.
Totally Nintendo. The conference itself was competent and at the end of the day, it's going to be the Wii U that everyone is talking about, I think the Vita just got drastically over shadowed by the Wii U.
People are saying Nintendo? We got a cluster fuck of a new console announcement that just made more questions, long drawn out bits of nothing and a weak game line up.
I'm going with Nintendo's conference, it just interested me the most and of course, LUIGI'S MANSION 2! Microsoft's was boring and mostly about kinect, and I don't even have an xbox. Sony's was alright but there were only a few things that interested me. Although the new Nintendo console confusion and the name is something that is bothering me. But still, I changed my side thingy just because of Luigi's Mansion 2.
co-op without being split screen is fucking GENIUS.
and its a great price you get the tv, an hdmi chord, and Resistance 3 for $499. not bad.
and overall I'd say nintendo did the most wtf shit so it wins but I think Sony had a great show. MS was just a bunch of lame kinect stuff that was almost entirely scripted. the MW3 intro was excellent but its a multiplat. and uh... yeah not much excitement at MS dude.
Nintendo for me. I like the idea of a tablet controller. It was a very confusing conference though. I saw an interview with Reggie on G4 and he explained why they didn't concentrate on the console. He basically said Nintendo wanted to put the new controller out there and that the console isn't being released until next year.
Nintendo's was the best overall. They had more cool exclusives than Microsoft and Sony, and the WiiU seems incredible. Also, they had a goddamn orchestra playing Zelda music.
Hated them all, all very lifeless. Why can't they get someone with a personality up on that stage? The suits sound so scripted, give me a real person thinking up things to say without having rehearsed every aspect of it.
Sony by far. MS only showed lame Kinect games and multi platform games. Nintendo only talked about the controller and showed a couple of trailers for games for multiplatform games coming to their new console.
Microsoft was a kinect Snooze-fest and child actors? com'on! Sony had a good run of it with the Vita Nintendo had the most entertaining conference by far, live orchestra and it didnt feel as rushed.
nintendo, sony and ea are all tied for me, all had games and consoles i was interested in buying and am excited about seeing more of.... microsofts was just lame
Sony. They had the best games, PS Vita price was great, great games on both systems, great announcements. Talked about move which was good. Microsoft. Had good games, Kinect stuff. Star Wars sucked ass. Halo announcements. It was ok Nintendo. Showed off good stuff for the 3DS, Wii U actually looks really cool but wondering about the cost of the controller.
Winner? Sony. The Wii U was cool but there were so many questions to be answered and no real games for it yet. Res on controller and the system? Cost of the controller. Blu Ray? Online stuff? Hard Drive? They need to tell us more to be impressed. The controller is cool but we have an idea of what can be done since the DS. Give us the details that will convince us it is worth it to get into it. Sony gave the right price for the Vita. MS was good just nothing really compelling. They have the games and thats all we could ask for. It doesn't give them the best press conference, but will give them the best year. Nintendo will not have the WiiU out yet and 3DS games are still not there, Sony has good games but no word on release for the Vita and they may launch in the US in 2012. So all they have this year is Uncharted... for me anyway. Also, it is clear they are making the same mistake with Vita, the idea of switching between Vita and PS3 is awesome, but to expect us to pay for both? Dumb. Yeah, MS walks away with the best outlook for 2011, and thats what matters right now.
