- A new third-person shooter for the Wii U was announced called Splatoon. It looks like a hell of a lot of fun, and I will be for sure getting it very near release, which is the "first half of 2015"
- Nintendo's NFC figurines thingy was named Amiibo. There will be 10 figures for you and me at launch, which is Holiday 2014. It will be compatible with Smash Brothers and will be eventually incorporated into Mario Kart 8, Mario Party 10, and more.
- A new game called Mario Maker is coming out in the first half of 2015, which will allow users to create and edit their own Super Mario Bros. levels, spawning koopas, goombas, pipes, and pretty much every Mario-related thing that you could think of. Courses can be then played in either the original Mario Brothers graphics, or you can switch to the HD graphics of New Super Mario Bros. U.
- Hyrule Warriors was given a pretty new trailer and they announced Midna from Twilight Princess as a playable character. This game will be hitting shelves on September 26th of this fine year of 2014. And, I am still split on how I feel about this game. It's cool because its Legend of Zelda, but... I'll probably just get Legend of Zelda Wii U.
- CAPTAIN TOAD GOT HIS OWN GAME AND IT'S CALLED CAPTAIN TOAD: TREASURE TRACKER AND I WILL DEFINITELY BUY THIS THE SECOND IT IS AVAILABLE WHICH IS HOLIDAY 2014
- There is another Mario party coming out, for Wii U. This installment is the 10th, thus it is called Mario Party 10. Up to five people can play, where four players play as Mario and his gang, and the fifth player plays as Bowser. It's pretty wild because some of the mini-games pit the gang against Bowser in a 4v1, and it certainly looks plenty interesting. It will be available in 2015, so I've got plenty of time to decide whether I want it or not.
- Yarn Yoshi now has an official name: Yoshi's Wooly World. Yoshi is now composed of yarn, but the core mechanics appear unchanged. Yoshi can trail eggs behind him to throw at enemies, but some eggs now have special abilities, like when you throw one, it leaves a walkable trail behind it. And there is many more abilities, and it looks like plenty of fun, although I'll need more time to decide if its a game for me. The game will be ready to buy in the first half of 2015.
- Sonic Boom didn't receive a trailer, and I'm not really sure what all is new with it, but it's still a thing. Also, it comes out this November. I will not be picking it up.
- Kirby and the Rainbow Curse was announced and has a 2015 release date and to be frank... it looks kinda awful. The game revolves around the gimmick that Kirby is a little clay ball, and to move him the player must draw lines on the GamePad to roll him around. If you happen to lick the gimmick, just get Ivy the Kiwi?, it's three bucks at GameStop.
- Legend of Zelda Wii U was officialy revealed with no release date or anything. Some pictures were shown and for some reason, the trailer isn't on Nintendo's E3 site, but if you want to view it, it is here. The game features a massive open world and plenty of puzzles, I'm sure, but we might even have to wait for next year's E3 to get some real news about this game.
- Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire was given a release date of November 21, 2014, and I am definitely picking this up on release day. The remake of gen 3 features the same graphics engine X and Y used and new "primal devolution"
The following two links will go to two Wii U games that are very popular, apparently, but I have no opinion on or feel like talking about.
- Bayonetta 2 comes out October 2014
- The "X" game revealed last year is now named "Xenoblade Chronicles X" and comes out 2015
I'll post more later today about other E3 stuffs, so stay tuned.
