Is it still only '' Ultimates only move that can kill ''?

That'd suck.

I'm pretty sure that was a misinterpretation of what the guy was saying. We'll probably see more at E3 though.

looks like the guys at Big Huge Games will have a new home at Epic

http://epicgames.com/community/2012/06/big-problems-need-huge-solutions/

those gold bar achievements are in-game. nothing new from other Wii games outside of the design changing a little.

I do think it'll have achievements though. Nintendo looks content to copy the good ideas and then innovate on what they feel strongly about.

I heard somewhere the achievement system would kinda look like the reward board of Brawl.

Like getting achievements would '' light-up '' a tile and the achievements adjacent to that tile would be revealed.

I love the Brawl system.

Not sure how I would feel about it for every game though.

that's basically Sakurai's invention. He's used it in Kirby's Air Ride and Kid Icarus Uprising too.

I don't know if he'd let anyone else use it

Very 360-inspired controller.

the dreamer of improbable dreams

basically the 360 controller with a real d-pad and what appears to be a microUSB plug

and the strange face/rightstick position

--

Oh, is it not wireless? And the d-pad is better, but the positioning is bad still.

--
the dreamer of improbable dreams

it's probably to hook up to the system for charging. it might be to attach to the gamepad but I doubt it.

--
add the c and back away

Charging would be good. Much better than the 360's battery pack.

--
the dreamer of improbable dreams

yeah I just assumed it's a 360 but with microUSB charging like a PS3 controller

don't notice a difference with the d-pad position!

--

I bought some pack thing that makes my 360 controller charge via USB.

Godsend.

I've always preferred the Dual Shock layout for controllers. Makes everything work right. They had the right idea with the Classic Controller Pro.

--
the dreamer of improbable dreams

So apparently Big Daddy and Nathan Drake as characters in Playstation All-Stars were accidentally leaked by Sony via a facebook poll

Drake we already knew about thanks to Cole's voice actor, but Big Daddy is kind of unexpected. Hell, the first Bioshock was 360-exclusive for a while

Another nail.

...I don't even know why I'm saying that this time, I admit.

Weird choice. Need more PS characters--Lara Croft would be a better third-party choice.

they should put this game on 360

Big Daddy? This game became a lot more intriguing tbh

where's the move support

--

So, off-topic, but I'm playing Mario 3D Land for the first time over here and just beat World 2.

...are Bowser's minions regularly sending our intrepid hero pictures of Peach being tortured? This is a little out of hand!

Better With Move

the dreamer of improbable dreams

man, Move utterly bombed. I'd be amazed if they even mention it at their conference.

it sold alright but had zero software besides some alternate shooter controls

--
add the c and back away

Yeah. It sold well, nearly 10 million units, but none of Sony's studios really bothered supporting it. Naughty Dog was especially against it, and if your best studio doesn't really support it.

Just started watching the Nintendo Direct. This zombie thing is f***ing hilarious. Nintendo needs to use this sense of humor more often.

I think Move in Japan was similar to Kinect here - worldwide sales ended up being somewhat similar.

So from the screenies, the Wii U tablet seemed like a social port/world map type of thing, does that seem accurate? could be cool

--

clearly not a 360 controller but an expanded SNES controller

Miyamoto: [cats] are kind of like girls. If they come and talk to you it's great. But if you try to talk to them it doesn't always go so well

That seems to be the implication.

Can't wait for Microsoft. Their conference never disappointing, in one way or another.

You beat yourself up with your past. Don't blame yourself, blame the world. Blame God. Blame me.

Apparently Sony's stocks went under 1000 yens, the lowest since 1984.

They're like 12 bucks atm.

I imagine MS will go put on the right show for them and people here will overreact to anything that could be framed in a negative light. I watch the shows after reading the reaction and MS tends to be a bit weird in terms of reaction vs what actually happens.
