E3 2011 Predictions

It's actually called the Nintendo Caff, but every time someone hears it they go "Caff? eh?"

[abigsmurf]

Everyone's using nice accented e's for cafe, it's making me feel common as muck ;_;

*belches loudly and scratches his arse*

Nobody knows how to write them, the first ? was documented in 1994 on a university network, since then , every repeated sighting of an ? has been copied and pasted.

Let's hope the big N flip it back round the other way. Maybe with a teaser trailer of a really slick HD Marion Galaxy 3

[The Mole]

I fully expect there to be no Eternal Darkness 2 either, there's nothing but guess work on that due to Nintendo maintaining the rights to the IP which they always do with theres. They won't waste Retro on the sequel to a flop game only a small few care about, I'd say it's much likelier they're working on Metroid again for Wii 2 to try and improve its fortunes after Other M underperformed

Not quite

The reason people are speculating about ED is due to the interview Reggie did a month or so ago, in which he mentioned that hardcore Nintendo fans would be pleased with a game that is in development based on an old Gamecube game. People assumed he was reffering to ED.

Luigi's Mansion 2

[Number45]

HD Luigi's Mansion and I'm in.

I do keep forgetting about the crazy controller talk though.

[FelixofMars]

Is this before or after he shows us the graphs of how much money Nintendo are making?

I predict Reggie will make a snide side swipe at PSN

[Family Fry]

I don't know if I already said this, Microsoft to introduce a Xbox Live Kinect Arcade service, like XBLA but for Kinect only style games.
Since they will no doubt push Kinect some more at E3.

[toythatkills]

I reckon they'll announce Halo Kinect, a bunch of other Kinect rubbish in passing, and then really focus on the Kinect PC stuff.

The only thing I'm really hoping for is F-Zero HD for "Project Cafe". I miss playing AX so much, so would love it to take a step up from that game.
Maybe even a Left 4 Dead 3?
I would like to see more from I Am Alive though.

Already so many games in continuing series have new instalments released this year, it's difficult to find something sequel-esque to be hopeful for.

I think a 'step up' from GX/AX is virtually impossible, unless it's another Sega/Nintendo collaboration, and even these days I don't like the sound of that. Perhaps a Platinum Games/Treasure team up could pull it off, maybe.

[dataDave]

Either way, I doubt even Nintendo can pull it off in-house. I'd be more than happy if the franchise was put on hold for another decade at least. I'd also be more than happy with a HD port of GX with online features, which of course would get a whole load of people moaning, albeit them never getting 100% out of the original in the first place.

[Leon Retro]

I think Nintendo should look back to the original F-Zero and go from there. Give me modern visuals mixed with the vibe and feel of the original experience. Some nice synth music would be the cherry on top. I think GX is a great game, but I'd like something a lot different this time.

Also a HD 3D remake of the original Mario Kart could be good. Take the original game, redo the visuals in proper 3D, keep the gameplay the same, and maybe add more content. I think it could work out well.
