Yeah, its viewed as cowardly, but still you can't help but acknowledge that it was good strategy.

Good. So they teased Starfox, Mother 3, and (from my perspective, at least) Metroid (because the start of the X trailer had a huge Metroid Prime vibe). And word (from Jason Schreier of Kotaku) is that Nintendo is going to be announcing a big 3DS game Wednesday evening. Popular speculation is that it will be a Metroid. So maybe they'll announce Mother 3 for the Wii U VC on Thursday.

No, it was announced during the big Jan. 2013 Nintendo Direct.

Wait, Sakurai appeared at the beginning?! Damn, missed that part... Hope the full recording comes out soon.

Bayonetta 2 E3 trailer, and it seem like those that didn't get to play the 1st game will be getting Bayonetta with Bayonetta 2.

Somehow I saw this from a mile away.

I'm pretty excited about this game. Though I am actually more interested in story than the gameplay.

2014 E3 SAO Vita trailer. i still can't believe people are guessing whether it is dubbed or not. they should be thankful it's getting an english localization at all. i'll take it over the broken engrish on the taiwanese release.

Shadow of Mordor gameplay

[T-6000]

I'm disappointed that Valve haven't announced anything, even though I knew that the chances of any announcements from Valve were slim. IMHO I think they're one of the best developers out there. The gameplay footage of COD Advance Warfare was pretty disappointing. The guns looked and felt like loud Nerf Guns. Battlefield Hardline looks interesting (though it maybe slightly plagiarizing the Payday series, as some have accused EA of doing) but I am a bit concerned with the lack of a variety of weapons.

So, there's speculation that the Link we saw in the Wii U trailer might not be Link due to the lack of sword, lack of green tunic or hat, and ponytail. The blue tunic is rather similar to the tunic Link wore in Wind Waker before getting the standard hero garbs, so there's speculation that it might be his sister, which would also explain the similarity. The producer, Aonuma, teased "No one explicitly said that that was Link." This was the best response I saw to it:

Yep. Infuriating. We lost Kozaki's art to boot since he's off the project. Thank you westernization.

I'm worry that most of PS4 games shy away from the bright color and turn into grimdark shit with the current trend. Great hardware doesn't mean you have to chase that realistic seeking audience.

Well, there is still that rumor Clap Hanz's project and I hope they are making another Minna no Golf for the PS4.

[ACertainStark]

I wouldn't worry about that with Media Molecule making something!

I've seen some speculation that the Link look-a-like in the trailer might actually be female, with some neat Nausicaa comparisons, and now people are wondering if there might be a female Link for this game. Though I think they would've given the character a more developed chest area if it were really a girl, unless they're intentionally going for the character/Link being androgynous .

There's a set of photoshopped images people have spread around too, slightly changing the shadings and things to make Link look more girlish.

[HayashiTakara]

I think the response from Eiji was genius. In his head he's probably thinking "are these numbnuts really asking me if that's Link or not? let me troll them a little"
