So, we've seen all the other 4 conferences and I reckon the general consensus is that all but a few games (watch_dogs, Last of Us) were just underwhelming. But this isn't a thread about your thoughts on the other 4 conferences, this is a thread for predicting what the hell Nintendo will pull out of their sleeves. I honestly have no idea what they're going to show, all I know is that it's going to be centered around the Wii U. I can also tell that they're gonna be announcing a LOT of stuff for the Wii U, seeing as they've had to put all the 3DS announcments into another conference!

So, here's my predictions:
-New hardcore game, a shooter probably
-New Metroid, Star Fox or F-Zero
-Lots of upcoming games being announced or shown for the Wii U
-Maybe some gameplay of ZombiU
-PIKMIN 3 (seriously, if they show this they've won automatically. I f'ing love Pikmin)
-New Mario or Zelda, maybe a 3DS one.
-A few never before seen, or even though of games that nobody sees coming.
-This is just a wish, but something to do with Valve

Absolutely no idea, but I live in hope that they announce a Pokemon game for the Wii U like the handheld games. I would expect at least a new game from one of their big franchises at least, but which one, I have absolutely no idea.

Animal Crossing 3DS release Date
New STarfox WiiU game in the style of the N64 game

FUN
Not sure if that FUN was sarcastic or not? Just asking :p
Not sarcastic.

Nintendo seems to use the mantra "people buy fun games so we will make fun games to make money".

Someone like EA would say "we have built up a fanbase with this series, now we need to expend our avenues to create revenue which includes a swath of DLC, an iphone app etc etc".

You know the drill, I find Nintendo have a much better attitude when it comes to making games.
I agree, I want to also add that Nintendo's conference will be the most fun. Mainly because they don't have a 10 minute demo of every single game, they just announce a new game and after the crowd has finished cheering announce ANOTHER game. I can't wait to see the launch line-up for Wii U, and more 3DS games.

Hopefully. =D

Or release some decent games for it -_-
Well they've promised a "Huge new line up" for the 3DS to be announced at the conference, or the 3DS specific conference being held tommorow. Yep you heard it, Nintendo's got so much stuff to announce it needs THREE conferences.

Wait what... are you one of those people who say stuff like "NINTENDO JUST REMAKES DER OLD GAMEZ!", when Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Skyward Sword have massive amounts of creativity, charm and fun innovative levels?

The biggest and most welcoming surprise right now from Nintendo, at least for me, would be to see them change that stupid name for a console and give it something at least half way decent.

Yes, I can be petty! lol

:p

Oh yes, Skyward sword, because that's a complete innovation from a) OoT, b) ALTTP c) LA.

Oh wait, no it isn't -_-.

This should interest you. [http://www.geek.com/articles/games/nintendo-to-announce-4-5-inch-3ds-at-e3-2012064/]

To be honest, I really don't care what they show. Considering what the other companies rolled out, it won't be hard for Nintendo to impress me. The only thing I'm hoping to see is more of that Zelda demo from last year. That was fucking sexy.

I got the feeling they're gonna shove the Wii-U down our throats like MS did with Kinect.

EDIT: Which isn't such a bad thing.

It's their new console, of course they're going to show new games for it. I repeat, it's their NEW CONSOLE! It's not a peripheral like Kinect.

[EDIT]I saw your edit, confound you! I just hate the phrase "shoving it down our throats" being used when a company wants to show off awesome shit, it just makes it sound bad.

They'll show trailers for all their upcoming games (Luigi's Mansion, Paper Mario, Animal Crossing, etc). Some Wii U games will be announced, and they'll talk about Smash Bros but won't show anything.
I also expect some News Super Mario Bros. footage anda new game for one of their big franchises.
I'm hoping for F-zero 3DS (that'll really convince me to buy t) bt I won't get my hopes up. |Unfortunately, I'm going to miss the last part of it (I'll be leaving an hour after it starts) so I won't be able to confirm all of this straight away.
