not spending over $400 just to play zelda

fuck you nintendo

 

[OdysseusVA]

Imagine if Zelda was on more powerful hardware.

 

[Wag]

How the heck are we supposed to take this on a plane with 2 hours battery life.

External battery packs will probably be standard for long trips.

 

[Niks]

Sooooo....pay 300 dollars to play Zelda, and off it goes to gather dust.

 

[serenewarfare]

My feelings on the conference:

Meh, but you know Mario and Zelda look fucking fantastic, so day 1.

 

[matrix-cat]

What a fucking trailer. That just blew my face clean off my skull and left me begging for more.

Hard to believe something that good could come from the same company that shat out this reveal event.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

That was a weird presentation. Zelda and Mario were strong, as was Arms and the beginning, then it went down.

 

[Technoxtic]

So much to get excited about but so much to be disappointed with as well :/

 

[mantidor]

Zelda has voice acting now.

Preorder cancelled.

 

[kromeo]

Is the Zelda release worldwide?

 

[lindseybp]

Holy shit pro controller $69.99!!! seriously?

 

[KingSnake]

Zelda is amazing, but what other games are launching with the Switch besides it and 1,2 Switch?

Come on, you can't still have "Spring 2017" as launch date less than 2 months from launch.

 

[Hikami]

They did good by getting the paid online and price out of the way first then hyping you up with the games.

I was disappointed at first but that game line up and no region lock makes it a buy for me.

 

[seantos]

By the end I had turned from being super hyped and ready to preorder to actively cheering for zelda to come after launch just so the thing bombs harder and faster.

 

[guek]

lol this thread. gaf gonna gaf, I guess.

There will be more events

We will get more info

christ, people need to chill

 

[Gorillaz]

that 300 price point hurts

and the fact this shit has NO pack in game is unreal

 

[Vyrance]

Zelda looks fantastic. But I'm not going to pick up a Switch just for that. Outside of Mario and Xenoblade, rest of the presentation was just underwhelming for me. Price is $50 too much in my opinion as well.

 

[jmizzal]

Keep in mind we didnt see
Smash Bros
Pokemon
Monster Hunter
Metroid
Platinum Game
From Software game

E3 is gonna be lit

Switch is gonna be a beast

 

[d00d3n]

$300 just to play one game I have to give this some thought.

How much cheaper do you expect it to be when you need it for Mario later this year?

 

[De_Legend]

450$ in Canada, without a game and paid online.

Fuck off.

 

[othersteve]

The music.

 

[Floridian]

I'm still not sold on buying the console day one, especially for just one game. Probably will wait till the holiday season.

 

[Corleth the Fey]

So $360 / £300 for Zelda - or just buy it for the Wii U - which I already own? I'm thinking the Switch can wait for a bit.

 

[mightynine]

Wii U version too?
No reason to buy the Switch if its also coming to Wii U near that date

Wii U same day.

I am a little hesitant to pre-order right away, just because I'm saving up for a trip to London in March.

That said, that Zelda game would be a great time-killer on the flights.

 

[watershed]

Its hard not to be in at launch for Zelda alone but Nintendo didn't even talk about the launch line up and the price and paid online kinda sour me on the Switch at the moment. Unless Nintendo impresses with the launch line up and other features, I think I can sit out launch. For Mario and Splatoon 2 though plus Zelda, I'll have to buy a Switch eventually.

All that Wiimote 2.0 stuff, I have no interest in. Thank god they put all that at the beginning of the show.

 

[mellow]

Zelda looked amazing but too many questions about the other stuff they showed, most of the announcements seemed very far off/at an early conceptual stage, kinda worrying.

 

[wild wild rice]

That was absofuckinglutely horrendous holy fuck

Mario looks like GOAT material

Still Day 1 for Zelda tho

 

[Shadowlink]

Zelda trailer was amazing!

 

[Milly Osworth]

Loved Mario and Zelda but was expecting a lot more 😖

 

[ktroopa]

That was the best Zelda trailer ever to grace my eyes.

agreed. it was pure gold

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

Mario and Zelda were both great.

Everything else was a trainwreck.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Didn't see anything on the virtual console or on their account system. Any details on those?

 

[KillySG10]

Correct me if i'm wrong, but that was a grand total of 2 launch titles wasn't it? 1 2 Switch and Breath of the Wild...i can't see that helping its chances for success...

 

[Brisal73]

I'll wait for the emulator

 

[JaredLetoJoker]

Zelda looked good. Mario was ok. everything else was poor.
I wish we could get a Mario or zelda game in 1080p, or 4k

 

[Bronx-Man]

Eh, I liked the music of the E3 trailer a lot more. Still hype though.

 

[killatopak]

Virtually only 1 exclusive title on launch and it's a damn shovelware.

FUCK.

You're making it hard for me to buy your hardware Nintendo!

 

[Nintenleo]

Zelda and Mario were fantastic. For the rest, well...a lot of rpgs. And...launch games?

Some nice things like Mario Kart 8 new battle mode, Xenoblade 2 and Bomberman but...launch games other than Zelda and 1-2-SHIT?

 

[CloudyTuba]

So after I play Zelda and 1 2 switch, I'm left for months on end without anything else?!!?

Please be excited.

 

[Not]

Lol I forgot how crabby GAF gets

Cool concepts, Zelda at launch, cruddy third party ports, No More Heroes

It's Wii 2.0. This is the best Nintendo can get. At least it's region free with (hopefully) competent online.

 

[Riddler]

That was completely horrible. No details about interface, console storage, store, online features...

Besides the HD Rumble I'm glad they focused on games and future.

 

[Wolfgang Jr]

The best thing about the presentation is how good it makes the Wii U look now.

 

[Laevateinn]

Zelda, Bomberman, Mario, Sonic, Disgaea, Toshihiro Nagoshi's game, Xenoblade, Splatoon, Rayman. I am so in.

 

[cryptosporidium]

That was the worst presentation Ive ever seen. somehow worse than Nintendos 2015 e3.
My best mate has open heart surgery tomorrow and he says hes going into it depressed as hell because of this. First nintendo console I may not even own.. I liked xenoblade and zelda at least..

 

[Sheytan]

Switch pre-order canceled, i'm borrowing my friends wii u for zelda

 

[superNESjoe]

That was awful guys. Truly awful.

 

[NathanS]

So, Zelda which is going to be on Wii U, and two party games for launch....

What else you got nintendo?

Hmmm reminds me of another system they lunched, but I'm sure it was some flop.

 

[thecouncil]

lol this thread. gaf gonna gaf, I guess.

There will be more events

We will get more info

christ, people need to chill

Little late at this point. launch is in six weeks.

 

[ffdgh]

That was something alright. I wanted to see more new stuff added in 8. That battle course looked great.

 

[CoffeeKillquest]

So are the only launch titles Zelda BotW and 1 2 switch?
