Not again

zzzzz.  Wha?  Did I  miss out on telling everyone on more info on the 3DS titles and on the new 3DS XL?

Nintendo's panel in a nutshell: 8 days late

Aww darnit.  Did I fall asleep at the keyboard again?  Well lemme take about my take on Nintendo's E3.

First off, there were 2 press conferences.  One focused on Wii U, the other on the 3DS

Perhaps the most important news of Nintendo is that Pikmin is finally getting a sequel after 8 years.  And I thought I was late with the news



After Olimar was busy duking it out with a mustached plumber, an elfen boy, a girl in metal armor, a pink puff, a electric rat, an angel, the king of the koopas, an evil mustached guy, a secret agent and a blue hedgehog, it's great for him to finally return to his roots and have a little fun.  Speaking of mustached plumber, guess who's finally getting a new game that is coming out on release date?



All complete with Baby Yoshis and Yoshi's Island graphics

Now for 3rd Party, we have Ubisoft demonstrating a couple of games.   One of which is a new Rayman game made exclusive(for the time being) for the Wii U



And if Resident Evil isn't zombie enough, Ubisoft now has ZombiU coming out



And after finally messing with a number of franchises(Ex: Star Wars, Batman, Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean and Harry Potter), Lego takes you inside their city in a new GTA Clone



But nothing can prepare the gamer for the ultimate game coming out.


NINTENDO LAND(Trailer provided by ContraNetwork)



Yes, NintendoLand.  A theme park for the Nintendo fanboy/Girl within.  And most likely, it will be a pack-in title.

Later, I'm gonna talk about the 3DS games(If I Can remember) coming out.  And stay tuned.  For soon you will be able to link your 3DS to a Nintendo Network account.

Sony's Panel in a Nutshell, plus Watch Dogs

With Nintendo's Press Conference coming up, let's take alook at what Sony did before we get to them

And after spending last year as a guest character on Mortal Kombat, Kratos returns in a prequel to the original God of War



Welcome back, Kratos.  Now let's see if we can convince you to vote Mitt Romney this year.  But that's not the only game Kratos will appear in.  He, alongside characters like Sly Cooper, Pa Rappa the Rapper, Nathan Drake and even a Big Daddy from Bioshock will play in the Smash Bros clone: Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale



Bright colors is the new brown.  And boy does it look good

Also, from the creators of Heavy Rain brings us BEYOND: Two Souls



And finally, Survival is about to take on a whole new meaning with The Last of Us.



This, will revolutionize the survival genre.

Sony has more videos of E3 at its Youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/PlayStation.  I heard they also were talking about linking the Vita to the PS3 allowing cross platform play.

Before we conclude and stay tuned for the Nintendo Panel, let's take alook at Watch Dogs

Microsoft's panel in a nutshell

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, E3 is here and among us. Yesterday, Nintendo demonstrated what the Wii U's Gamepad was capable of and also decided to show off the new Wii U Pro Controller. We'll talk about that when we go into Nintendo's panel tomorrow.

 First off, Microsoft's panel. ZOMG. HALO 4. HALO 4. HAL... Actually, screw Halo 4. Gears of War: Judgement sounds better. Wonder when that will come out? No wait. Ubisoft is getting my attention with Splinter Cell: Blacklist. Now let's see what else Microsoft has coo.... Wait. there is another thing. The all-new Smartglass. (Courtest of IGN) Now what the Smartglass is capable of is allowing new means of input using your at-home tablet, from the iPad to Android Tablets. Now you don't need a X-Box Gamepad. You have the tablet and your 360 controller at the same time. It even works on your Smartphone.

Next up, I'll be talking about Sony's panel alongside Ubisoft and their newest game "Watch Dogs"
