Nintendo received more awards than any other console at E3.

Funny how there was no award presented for graphics this year, when all we\'ve been doing is prattling about how pretty "game X" looks.

I think thats bull imo i think sony had by far the best showing at e3(most games, most add-ons, and most of all mgs2 trailer).  Nintendo showed new hardware and games but most of there games weren\'t that great maybe excepted for luigi mansion, RS2 which both all really good.

Look at the list of judges.... Newsweek... Red Herring.... why do these people have a say? Boo! Booooo! The list is invalid IMO, outside of 3 people, I don\'t trust the opinions of the rest.

This is interesting and everything but they mean nothing. Sega ran away with last years E3 and look where they are right now. I\'m not saying that Nintendo will fail or anything I just want everyone to know that this means nothing. Just that a lot of mainstream news sources were impressed by Nintendo\'s Uber Lunch-Box.

What???
The N64 came out a year after the Psone. That counts as ages? 1996 is "ages"?


Nintendo can win all these \'media awards\' simply because they have massive well-known franchises. Anytime you see Mario , you can expect alot of people to be happy and critics to be in love.

I don\'t think having the "most add-ons" is something to be proud of.

:laughing:

Please don\'t bash me, this is my opinion, but not one current game for GameCube intrests me now. Even magazines (Games Master and CVG) are cynical about Luigis Mansion\'s gameplay...they said the graphics were good, but the prosprect of the gameplay is nothing to write home about...vaccume cleeners sucking up ghosts indeed...pffft....

   And there is no confirmed Mario game...if there was..well, I\'m surprised you people haven\'t got tired of these games now, Mario is getting VERY boring. And so is Link, and Pickachu...ect.
   BUT I would buy a GC is a Wario game appeared-I love Wario and the game\'s charaters-bizzare, funny and inventive. Shame it\'s only on Gameboy. Also, some more Donkey Kong would be nice.
