E3 2012

[Asher]

Nintendo's conference happened.

From what I can see, they announced that the internet now exists and they have something called "Miinverse" or something. Online play.

They also showed off their "pro" WiiU controller, which looks like a hilariously bad photoshop?

That doesn't look familiar at all.

Holy Crap at 'Watch Dogs', a Ubisoft offering:

Nintendo's conference is today. The other was a net cast pre E3 video.

One of the games confirmed is a zombie game from (IIRC) Ubisoft, called Zombi U. It's seemingly a remake of a game from the 80s.




Zombi is an icon-driven arcade adventure computer game. It was Ubisoft's first publication, released when the company was established in 1986.[1]

The original Amstrad CPC version was programmed by Yannick Cadin, S L Coemelck, with graphics by Patrick Daher and music by Philippe Marchiset.[2]
It was re-released in 1990, with ports developed for the ZX Spectrum (by Geoff Phillips, Colin Jones and Steve Chance), Commodore 64 (Jean Noel Moyne, Laurent Poujoulat, Jean Francois Auroux[3]), Amiga (Alexander Yarmitsky[4]), Atari ST and DOS.

Yeah, I saw the Watch Dogs preview yesterday. It looks like GTA, Deus Ex, and Assassins Creed had a sexy, sexy baby. Definitely one to keep an eye on.
