Some recaps

Nice to know Nintendo still cares.

As happy as I am, I know this announcement was out or pure pity. The simple words "We're making Pikmin." Just does not live up to a big announcement.

I can almost see how Nintendo likes to do things now. They show off what they want to show off at there official E3 Press Conference, then wait for the response on what everyone thinks of it, and then they might end up announcing something after wards if the response is just not good enough.

In this case though, this was just out of pity for the core audience. It is everywhere on the internet that Miyamoto was not supposed to announce Pikmin 3 when he did, but he did because he knew there was a distinct lack of core games Nintendo announced at the conference.

We know Kid Icarus is being worked on, we know that either a new Mario or Zelda is being worked on. But why do you choose not to reveal anything about them? I understand Animal Crossing is a big game, but is it really the game you want to address to the core audience?

After that press conference, I don't know how I still have the respect I do for Nintendo, nor do I know why I still support them after what they showed off. I guess it's just who I am. I can stop supporting them.
