Insiders aren't infallible, you know.
CBOAT is right for a lot of the accounts that he's pretty much the real deal.
Besides, each insider are different in their 'sources'. Someone like mortimer gets his details from 2nd-hand sources, because he's friends with those inside, and not actually inside himself. And even those friends of his don't necessarily know everything.

Wonder if this is like one of those Vita shows, where, well, nothing seems to come out.
I can only hope that Japan Studios are not that unprepared for next-gen (aside from Knack, of course).

Yeah. It's good they're doing a separate event for Japan as well. Sure we know about FFXV, KH3, MGS5 and Deep Down but those are likely all far and away not even close to launch.
i really hope sony shows more down the line games for people to be excited about, they definetly need something on the fighting game front, and update people on last guardians status, what about that rumored RPG as well, at least something else thats not indie, yes indie is great but come on, show us more first party stuff other than KZ, or Infamous
i want it so bad

But
The Last Guardian?
Siren sequel?
JRPGs?
Demon Souls 2?
Yakuza Ishin?
Legend of the Dragoon 2?
More Japanese unique games?

Folklore 2
Legend of Dragoon 2
Final Fantasy VII-remake
Dark Cloud
Rogue Galaxy
New Tales game
The Last Guardian
New Metal Slug
Wild Arms
Ni no Kuni 2
Reality:
Dynasty Warrior

Well considering they continued to say indie this, indie that when the 5 games were presented, I am more likely to lean towards the idea that they are indie games.

Did you even watch the conference?
After Shahid (INDIES), they had someone else come up on stage to talk about WWS, and games coming out from their core pipeline, where they then introduced Rapture, Rine, etc.
There was a transition from indies to non-indies, and the splash-page of those games even specificaly mentioned "Sony Computer Entertainment Presents", which meant all those games are SCE-published... and exclusives.
I know indies were quoted a million times throughout the conference, but they did not call thechineseroom and Tequila Works indies.

Off the top of my head, I don't think cboat got anything right at E3 either.
Well you shouldnt think off the top of your head...
Outside Prince of Persia, he was right for everything else.

I feel the same. I still feel like TGS will be the place where they announce any big games. The release date will be the headliner here.
Cerny namedropped PaRappa during the conference today. I hope after the show he got his ass onto a plane grabbed Greenblat, Matsuura, and the rest of NanaOn-Sha, and made sure they were working on a new PaRappa game.
As for things that are in the realm of possibility I'm hoping to see a Tokyo Jungle sequel/follow up, some new Minna no Golf, Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. Full Boost, and a real god damn Ridge Racer game.

So, Yakuza Ishin's platform is still unannounced even after the Famitsu leak. I originally thought that it was going to be a Vita game, but if they're holding it back for this event, then it's probably a PS4 game.
Entirely possible and wouldn't be surprising given Nagoshi's comments.

Let's see Gravity Knights!
Slightly obvious, but WSJ says that Sony confirmed to them that the PS4 Japanese launch date will be announced here.

Hopefully some Japan-specific games are announced at this presser. TLG or bust @ TGS.

But I just got off this last hype train. Now you want me to get on another?
The Last Guardian and Gravity Rush 2, that's all I ask for. Anything else is a bonus.

My guess is that we will see:
PS4 price and release date.
Demon's Souls 2
Yakuza Isshin
Siren
Ridge Racer
Everybody's Golf
Surprise RPG
+ maybe new FFXV trailer

If they're going to announce a date then i've got to imagine that they plan on finally announcing some games that are going to appeal to Japan. Well, at least some games that'll be available at or near launch. KH3, FFXV and MGSV aren't coming out any time soon.
Thanks, added to OP.

Japanese games. Just what I need! Hopefully some make it it western shores for launch window, too. I'll take an upgraded Tekken Tag 2, even. Just..something. Please? Killzone does nothing for me...

Im hoping Gravity Rush 2 is announced then. I can also guess that a new Siren will be announced as well. And maybe actual JRPGs instead of ones that include elements of MH to it would be grand.
Don't forget Level-5 Vision is also next week, so potentially something there as well.

Colony Waresu and TLG!!
Well at least give us the new Yakuza for PS4/Vita, would be splendid!

Here's hoping that the Japanese launch lineup will be different unlike with the PS3.
I remembered the first 2 years of the PS3's life. It was torture.
The games I'm looking for are more on the B tier stuff in terms of budget. Whilst the FFs and the MGSs are nice and all, I actually enjoyed the more niche stuff the most this gen.

What's those third party Jap dev brewing? Missing in action at E3 and Gamecom.
So far we seen, Dead rising(western dev) ,deep down, FF15, KH3, MGSV and nothing more
Most of them seems like late 2104 or 2015.
Sege, Koei Techmo, NamcoBandai, Ninpon Ichi, From software,Atlus not one next gen game announce. All out mobile/handheld/Current gen?

year of the press confs
lol, wasn't the only Japan-centric launch title Gundam: Target in Sight or something?
I shamelessly own that game...
SolidSnakex

Yeah, I remember Hino saying that they were working on a PS4 game that may be announced soon (although this was back in April). I'd love for it to be a Ni no Kuni sequel, but it's probably too soon for that.
Genji?
I'd expect their first game to be funded by Sony, as per tradition
Dark cloud HD collections. And then 3 plz
waiting for this conference I hope
surely koei will have a musou game ready to go
Er, it's probably 39,980 since they basically use the same pricing numbers for all regions sans UK.

I think its misguided to expect anything from this event, we're much better off anticipating TGS for games.

I thought Level 5 always has a team which develop Sony's IP (Rogue Galaxy, White Knight Chronicles)
High chance Yakuza Ishin will be for PS4 (Famitsu still list platform unannouned). That will be much sooner than the first PS3 Yakuza (nearly 2 year after PS3 released)
Maybe the ease of Ps4 architecture probably helps Japan devs

It all depends on how far the Japanese games are in development. The current games they have announced aren't going to cut it in Japan. Knack is the only one that might have some appeal there.

If they just announce new games on TGS, I think Japan/Asia release will be Feb 2014
No way they plan to release the game on 2013 with only 2-3 month of media attention.
