  1. E3's coming, and short of saying HEY WE BROUGHT BACK THE SNES, MADE GAMES CHEAPER, AND BUNDLED AN SDK FOR NEW DEVS TO GET IN ON THE ACTION by someone, I really don't give a flip for much of anything I can imagine them announcing. Though I guess part of those feelings is just my lack of disposable income speaking.

    1. @retl I bet they got balloons though.

      1. @carcinopony They might, but it'd be way cheaper for me to buy balloons that to try to get my way to E3.

        1. @retl we should like. Make and E3, but for balloons.

          1. @carcinopony Iiiiii kinda dig this idea~

            Monday, 30-May-11 18:59:46 UTC from web
            1. @retl let's do it.

              Monday, 30-May-11 19:00:47 UTC from StatusNet Android
              1. @carcinopony Done! In my mind, anyway.

                1. @retl do we have balloon booth babes?

                  Monday, 30-May-11 19:06:23 UTC from StatusNet Android
                  1. @carcinopony Definitely! I think they're one of the main attractions... Though they're all ponies. Small, brightly-colored talking ponies that look a lot like toys. I hope that's okay. There's also a few stallions and a trap or two for good measure. But it's mostly all the major balloon manufacturers showing off stuff with the intent to get people excited and ready to spend money.

                          1. @carcinopony Yepyep. When you need to PAR-TAY the PAR-TAY girl Pinkie Pie knows how to rock that PAR-TAY whenever the PAR-TAY time rolls around.

    2. @retl Modern Warfare 3? Don't care. Project Cafe? Don't care. The new Aliens game? Don't care.

      Monday, 30-May-11 18:26:28 UTC from web
      1. @nvrrmbr More or less this, yes.

        Monday, 30-May-11 18:39:57 UTC from web
    3. @retl I'll be at e3 u know

      Monday, 30-May-11 18:27:02 UTC from web
      1. @delc17 Yep, and I sincerely hope you have a blast at it and see lotsa stuff you like. :3 But I just can't afford much of this stuff anymore, and a lot of it seems to be more and more sequels of the same things over and over, and not much of anyone trying to make something to cover unexplored niches.

    4. @retl A MLP:FIM game.

      Monday, 30-May-11 18:27:48 UTC from web
      1. @starshine The fanbase has got that covered.

        Monday, 30-May-11 18:28:52 UTC from web
        1. @nvrrmbr I want an official one, though.

          Monday, 30-May-11 18:29:43 UTC from web
          1. @starshine This just in, Blizzard, Valve, BioWare, Bethesda, Mojang AB, Relic and Rockstar games are working together on the new My little pony: Friendship is Magic game. it is said to be a modern sci-fi post apocalyptic fantasy game combining elements of shooters, RPGs, RTSs, Typing games and cooking mama. And it all seems to be merging seamlessly together in a way I never expected possible.

            Monday, 30-May-11 18:37:07 UTC from web
            1. @keeponrocking What, no Bejeweled minigame?

              Monday, 30-May-11 18:38:04 UTC from web
            2. @keeponrocking Really? Quoting Yhatzee?

              Monday, 30-May-11 18:38:07 UTC from web
              1. @nvrrmbr Heavily inspired by, I'd say. but you do receive a cookie for noticing.

                Monday, 30-May-11 18:41:43 UTC from web
                1. @keeponrocking Yay! +1 Internet cookie for me!

                  Monday, 30-May-11 18:43:22 UTC from web
      2. @starshine I'd have mixed feelings to the point that they wouldn't be able to resolve without me actually playing the game. How many major developers can you name that have a game with a main, recurring character that is pink that doesn't trash up the game by treating the whole game as press-a-to-win? I can think of maybe 2. Nintendo has Peach, and... And... Wait isn't Kirby also Nintendo? I guess Amy Rose from Sonic Team's titles kinda-almost counts.

        Monday, 30-May-11 18:43:42 UTC from web
        1. @retl Super Meat Boy by Team Meat.

          Monday, 30-May-11 18:46:07 UTC from web
          1. @nvrrmbr This is a good counterexample, I think. Though I think they're more of an indie group than a major developer, though still noteworthy. Hrm. That said, I've never played Super Meat Boy.

            Monday, 30-May-11 18:59:30 UTC from web
        2. @retl Isn't one of the pokeymans pink? And it was in Smash Bros. too I think.

          1. @starshine Jigglypuff

            Monday, 30-May-11 18:48:37 UTC from web
            1. @yatta Yeah, that's the one. Looks like Kirby.

              Monday, 30-May-11 18:51:16 UTC from web
          2. @starshine @yatta Yep! Which is still Nintendo.

            Monday, 30-May-11 18:58:33 UTC from web
            1. @retl I think Nintendo would be the best candidate for a MLP game, considering that their general focus is, and always has been, family-oriented games. They worked with Disney on that Mickey Mouse game and it supposedly is pretty good (I haven't played it), so it's not totally implausible for them to work with Hasbro on a MLP game. If their marketing dept. has their heads screwed on straight I think they'll realize exactly how much they could stand to make from something like this.

              1. @starshine I concur! ... And somehow this reminds me of this Pinkie Pie figure I saw with a saddle for about $10 that I really wanted. <3

                Monday, 30-May-11 19:11:17 UTC from web
              2. @starshine Nintendo never made a Disney game. Capcom has done almost all good Disney games for Nintendo (Aladdin, Mickey's Magical Quest)(SNES era). Disney Interactive has a mixed bag of good games in its repertoire.

                1. @broniebrown Oh, hm. So they didn't. Well, still, it's a Wii-exclusive title that was presented during Nintendo's slot at E3.

                  1. @starshine Twilight is half the battle!

                    Monday, 30-May-11 19:30:06 UTC from Choqok
    5. @retl I concur!

    6. @retl @nvrrmbr Yeah, it was already announced there'd be no info on DotA 2. only thing I'm looking forward to is mabye some more info on Skyrim but that's it.

      Monday, 30-May-11 18:28:26 UTC from web
      1. @keeponrocking Oh wait! The Ico/Shadow of the Colusoss thing! That's all that I care about.
