Finished. I agree that Nintendo was the big loser with the most disappointing conference, but for different reasons than what you guys mainly touched on. I didn't really care that Zelda and Metroid and Smash were absent - we all know those games will eventually find a home on Wii U, so I wasn't sweating it. For me, Nintendo's conference was all about two words: online and multiplats, and they dropped the ball on both. If this is a console at least as powerful as PS3/360 and one that (according to rumors) is internally similar to the 360, then where are the multiplats that should be ported Day 1? Tomb Raider, Far Cry, CoD, Watch Dogs - nothing. The only big-name multiplatform title that isn't MONTHS late is Assassin's Creed 3. It's just not enough.

As for online, they spent more time talking about stuff I zoned out of rather than what gamers actually care about - functionality of online play and an achievement system. We still don't know how cumbersome it will be to play/connect with other gamers on Wii U, and we still don't know specifics about an achievement system.
