Starting point is 00:00:11 What's up guys? Welcome to the Kind of Funny Gamescast Post Show analysis of Nintendo's E3 2018 direct. I'm Tim Geddes joined by one of the coolest dudes in video games, Greg Miller. Dry bones and smashy riot. The number one games journalist Andy Cortez. Hey, what's up guys? I'm number one smash fan as well, Fortnite Fenty. And the producer slash seducer, Nick Scarpino. Ahoi, everyone. I'm aboard. You are aboard this beautiful ship.
Starting point is 00:00:37 We have been doing all of the press conferences at E328. We've been ranking at the end of these games cast. We will do the final ranking at the end of this episode. It's the final ranking. Let us know in the comments below what your ranking is. But before we get there, what did you guys think of this Nintendo Direct? Yeah, that was good. Great show.
Starting point is 00:00:59 We're doing the claps at the end of a smash match. Yeah. Yeah, I thought it was really good. The one, there was something early on that kind of shocked me. I'm sure Greg will go through. No, we can. Mario Party. Yeah, Mario Party was kind of a nice little surprise that we got there,
Starting point is 00:01:16 so I'm really excited for that. Was it Damon Cross Maka? It was not that. Okay, that was a weird one. This conference was awesome. This conference was really, really well done. A lot of cool announcements, a lot of great games. I liked a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 00:01:28 I mean, Fortnite being available immediately. Yeah, all right, awesome. As somebody who's super excited for Octopath Traveler, I like that they're doing another demo in June that the progress carries over to for the real game. All right, awesome. Obviously, there's this little game called, Smash brothers that had a whole much bullshit announced.
Starting point is 00:01:42 I feel like a lot of the announcements are great. I am a little disappointed with a lot that we saw today. I'm disappointed we didn't see anything new from Pokemon, let's go Pikachu and Devi. That's all the same information, just regurgitated. I'm disappointed in Fire Emblem, not being 2018. And I do think that they went on way too long with Smash. Really?
Starting point is 00:02:03 I love it. But last for WiiU smash, they did a Smash-only direct that was separate from the other directs that did what this day. was just like, let's get into assist trophies and stages and all this stuff. I feel like for the conference, it definitely dragged. Wow. If I'm going to shit on all the other conferences for pacing, I feel like it's only fair. Sagrazi of Zero-eight says nobody can ever make Tim happy.
Starting point is 00:02:25 And you're preaching to the choir. I talk to his girlfriend, it's true. This is the fucking game of my dreams, though. I can't believe. Which is why you booed it at the end of the end of the live reaction. I mean, I did boo it. I'm going to boo again. December.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Like, come on, guys. Like, fucking A. September. Get it ready for the fucking online thing, but whatever. Yeah, you figure a lot of the features shown and all these special things could have been what's happening right now on the show. Like, hey, here's all the extra items and here's these cool moves you can do. A lot of that could have been saved. But I also think it's important to show the public.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Here's why this game took so fucking long. Like, here's why we've been working on it forever because there's a lot of shit that went into this. And I'm sure part of it's just like, look, we're really proud of all the work that went into this. So here's all of it. Zachary fucking cares. man. He cares so much. All the little details are like franchise wide. Like across all the different IP.
Starting point is 00:03:16 Getting all the characters for this is absolutely huge. I'm shocked that Cloud's back. I thought for sure Squoer was going to have some fuckery going on. Be like, nah. Some fucker. What is the, what's the most shocking character that you that's back for you? Is that Cloud? It's Cloud. Yeah, yeah. I mean, because Snake Square and Nintendo. Snake was also one that I'm like, I don't know. But I mean, dude,
Starting point is 00:03:35 Pichu, Pokemon, trainer, fucking young link. Like there's so many of these characters that I would have sworn would we'd never see again. Yeah. This is crazy that everyone's back. This means that going forward, we're probably going to get like DLC forever. This is the ultimate Smash Bros.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Yeah. Right? And it's going to have all of the characters. No worries about characters getting cut and all that. This is fucking awesome. GameCube controller support. There's just so much good here. There was not one bit of bad news besides the release state
Starting point is 00:04:01 when it comes to Smash Brothers. So you think more characters announced throughout the week or throughout the year? I think throughout the week. You think so? How many do you think? I think we'll get two more. Two more. And then beyond that,
Starting point is 00:04:11 part of my ignorance on this one, but do they do more DLC characters leading up, like after, like post launch? I mean, they didn't announce that, but I imagine they will.
Starting point is 00:04:21 And they did last time. So, interesting. We got like five last time. Mm-hmm. I think we'll get a lot here. I am also a little concerned about Bomberman being a sister of me.
Starting point is 00:04:31 I thought he was, because that means he's not going to be a character. Who cares? Who cares? Pick up that post-ball. Bormann's definitely, like, top three third-party character
Starting point is 00:04:40 that have a chance that would have been fitting in this world. I think one piece of criticism is that the, I'm not expect, I wasn't expecting a huge graphical leap, but I don't really see a huge difference. This looks very different. It does.
Starting point is 00:04:55 The character is actually a lot less contrasty, which is interesting. It's almost a little bit of a different style for the character design. But honestly, it's not about graphics, Andy. A real smash player knows it's about the mechanics. It's about how it plays. I'm well aware.
Starting point is 00:05:09 But it's like, you know, No, at the intro, and as Tim said, he's excited for the new engine and how it might look. It may look different, but it doesn't look like... I bet if you put him side to side that you see some very noticeable differences. I agree, it doesn't look great. And I think the reason why... But it is very different. I think the reason why it doesn't look great is maybe because they've been working on it for so long
Starting point is 00:05:24 and they got started so early in the dev cycle. Similar to what happened with Fallout 4, I feel, where, yeah, we've been working on it for so long that when it comes out, it looks a little bit dated already. I think it's not bad. I think it's more the fact that it has to be playable with great frame rate handheld. Oh, that's fair. I just feel like they'd rather make those
Starting point is 00:05:43 concessions for it to be great. I love all the gameplay changes they're talking about with air dodges and all that stuff. All that sounds really great. The short hop attacks and all that. Yeah, but graphically, Smash has never been like the most stunning game ever made. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:05:57 You know. Ice climbers better. I'm excited about this. Fucking Ridley's here. I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll tell you, Mark Ryan and Andre are very happy. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:06:04 They're losing. I'm sure. Yeah. And there was a huge ice climbers fan. And I'm sure he was pissed off when they took those out. Oh, man. You want to run us through the sketch of what happened? You got it. I'm having one of those moments where I was like, oh, I downloaded Fortnite, create a log on in. I'll jump in there, right? And then it's like, all right, well, what's your Nintendo network ID?
Starting point is 00:06:22 I'm like, oh, fuck. I did that. And I got the, I got the password right. And then it's like, no, I got the password right. And then it's like, all right, cool. Cross-platform epic? Open your Google authenticated to do this. And I'm like, oh, right. I fucking my Google Authentica. And it's like, put up it. And then I'm like, I'll go in here, do it. Put up your Nintendo backup code. I'm like, fuck, I screenshot. on those old computer we just cleared. Fuck. So now how do you get around this fucking piece of garbage?
Starting point is 00:06:46 Let's talk about what's happening at this Nintendo conference. Everybody, they started up with Damon Cross Machina, 2019. It's got Gundams, so it's got Andy's attention. So it's got handy. The game looked cool.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I don't know any of the names. I don't know the developer. I don't know the director. Like, that seemed very out of nowhere. And it's, again, a weird-ass name.
Starting point is 00:07:06 And I feel like that could have used a little bit more explaining. Yeah. From there, it was Zeno Blade Chronicles to this Tornah, DLC or whatever. It seems to be an expansion. I'm not familiar enough with Zunablaid to know. Coming in September, either way. Then it was Pokemon, let's go. Pikachu segment.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Let's go, Evie, obviously. The announcement there being that Mew is going to be in the Pokemon. Plus when you buy that little Pocleball Plus. Yeah, which I don't like that. And I wanted to see more that game. I hope that it's playable at E3 so we can actually see more. We'll see. Of course, November 16th, right on the corner. Then the announcement of Super Mario Party.
Starting point is 00:07:44 You said they needed an October game. Here it is. October 5th, 2019, Super Mario Party. It's crazy. Yeah. I knew we'd get a Mario Party eventually on the Switch. Man, it makes so much sense, but not this early. And it looks great. I love the name, too.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Like, let's get as far away from Mario Party 10 as we possibly can with that stupid ass Bowser car. Yeah. Like, Switch is killing it, man. What direct was it that we got the 3DS Mario Party? the like that sort of definitive edition where they added all the top hundred that was like two directs ago yeah i just i i wasn't expecting this because i feel like that was so recent um and so yeah that's really exciting i can't wait to do party modes um then it was fire emblem three houses yeah man it's i i want to dive a little deeper into that uh to really see what's up i again i am disappointed that
Starting point is 00:08:30 it's not this year i could have sworn that would have been the december game yeah um it looks cool graphically, it's not what I was anticipating. I thought it was going to be a little bit of a bigger leap, but I feel like we saw the bigger leap in the more like walking around overworldly stuff. And I didn't love that in the 3DS game they put out recently. But I trust in them. I think this game is going to be fantastic.
Starting point is 00:08:54 And I really want you to give it a try because I think that this one is going to, it's going to grab you. It's going to get me? Okay. I'll take it. Then it was Fortnite, the announcement that it was a trailer. Fortnite's coming 10 a. you could download it. It popped earlier than it is up on e-shop. If you're watching us live
Starting point is 00:09:08 right now on Twitch. Uh, if you're fucked like me, somebody has to figure out in the chat. Don't fuck me. Uh, then they talked about overcooked. Overcooked two coming, uh, August 7th. Uh, I've played overcooked to everybody. Overcooked too is awesome. It's more overcooked. Uh, I took notes if you want to hear about him. I would love to. Let's hear him. Of course, this is one of my, uh, pre-3 judges weeks, uh, things. Technically, I'm breaking me bargo by three minutes. I don't think anybody's going to get man. You know what I mean? What do you think, Nick? I think you should let's just follow rules, Greg. Greg. You know, I don't break rules.
Starting point is 00:09:36 I mean, right there. Do you think Team 17 is watching a holiday right now? Holler night for five minutes and then we'll go. So over here too, as Reggie showed off in the trailer there, they added a new mechanic to actually be able to throw food or any ingredient or whatever, which is goofy. And before you could have that little running start like we used to do where you toss it between like moving trucks or whatever, the throw actually is super helpful.
Starting point is 00:09:55 You can aim it where you want to go and get it really far over there because they're doing way more devious levels. When we were playing it, we started off and it was the normal simple overcooked, but then we started jumping to different worlds. obviously further on, different recipes, different things to cook. And it was way more complicated and it was more moving pieces than usual even of like one where there was a, you know, more traditional overkill level of, you know, the two different sections and then an island in the middle. That would either be on one side of the other, but you can control it by hitting
Starting point is 00:10:21 the button to send it back and forth. Similar to like the space level, like the space level and stuff like that, but a little bit different there. It was cool. It's super, it's way prettier. It's got more pizzazz to it. You know what I mean? Like when they did the original overcooked, I think it was a little bit more indie. This one, Team 17 said they helped out a little bit more with. So it's got more polished to it. It's a prettier game. There's more stuff happening on that way. The big thing about it that I find interesting is that it's online. They added online modes for the first time. So now you have couch co-op and you can play with each other. You can do public multiplayer on there. You can do private multiplayer on there as well. Game modes, there's story arcade versus and then, yeah,
Starting point is 00:10:59 story of arcade versus and then one other there that can't remount handwriting on. But it's what you'd expect out of overcook going online and doing it. We didn't play that mode. Obviously, we played local and ran through it. But it's awesome. There's levels now for the dog, like the dog, little dog theme levels. You don't play as him, but he's more of a main part of it and stuff. So overcoat too. I can't fucking wait. Dude, that's awesome. What a great announcement. Yeah, August, uh, August 7th, pretty stoked for that. Uh, from there was killer queen black. Killer queen. Instead of being 5.5, it's 4 of 4. Yeah, which is it's so weird because I feel like five is very fundamental to the gameplay of that
Starting point is 00:11:30 and like the strategy and whatever like we'll just get used to four players. I wonder why they made that decision. Like I wonder if it was to like differentiate from the arcade game and still have the arcade. I think it's just because 4V4 makes more sense. It's just how it works on a console usually right? And I feel like it's just especially for being able to play
Starting point is 00:11:46 local. You figure it's just more screen real estate and stuff. If five could be too complicated. I think it's more likely to have four people together. It's just one static screen though. It doesn't like move around. It's not like Smash Brothers. Yeah, I guess like to be able to have 4V4 on one screen, like, you know, because when has there been in a 5V5 game, I feel? It's just, I think it just plays more with Nintendo's numbers,
Starting point is 00:12:11 like how they do. Lone Mountain says number of joycons. It's not just Nintendo, though. Number of joycons. No, a number of joycons too if you were to have, you should probably have an even number of players, right? You're going to have always an even number of joycons. Yeah, but it's not an Nintendo exclusive.
Starting point is 00:12:24 Okay. Is it not? No. Was it gonna be on Steam or? I don't know about that. I don't know. It's a Nintendo conference. I didn't hear we talking about anything else.
Starting point is 00:12:32 You want me to open up their Twitter? Yeah. Killer Queen or the dev? I'll just look up Killer Queen. Okay. Poiklo makes a great point. Who has five friends? Great point too?
Starting point is 00:12:43 It's we're trying. She's trying. She's doing her best thing. Killer Queen's fantastic, though. It's such a great game. I think it's going to be some of the best party modes we ever made. And I really hope that there's an online mode because I feel like us four against a bunch of other people
Starting point is 00:12:54 would be really cool. Absolutely. it'd be crazy not to have an online mode it wouldn't no it says online multiplayer there we go cun motherfucker confirmed
Starting point is 00:13:05 I'm trying to find platforms though it only mentions Nintendo Switch here but it calls out that in parentheses Nintendo Switch Yeah switch and PC Yeah Where are you For is just makes sense
Starting point is 00:13:16 Don't be weird All right You're being a weirdo about it You never played the game It's true I agree with that part I'm just saying I feel like for multiplayer local or online
Starting point is 00:13:24 4 makes more sense than 5 5 is just getting too much You're asking too much, Nick. It's true. Then Hollow Night is coming out today as well. Hollow Night finally. That one's been talked about forever. Dude, this is the E3 of Shadow Drops. And I think they're all drops that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Yeah. You know, Fortnite, this, all the stuff that we saw, other conferences, like, really cool shit. Next step was Octopath Traveler again, reiterating the July 13th release date and also stating that on June 14th, a month before, a new demo drops in the progress from that will carryover.
Starting point is 00:13:53 Then it was a sizzle reel of a million things. Some of them I miss. I got most of them, I think. It was Starlink, which you already knew about. If something's already out, I didn't put it in here either. Arena of Valor.
Starting point is 00:14:02 June 21st for that Minecraft update. June 26th for that game is coming, June 26th. That I can't remember which it was, though. Picks Ark, just dance coming in October. Dragon Ball Fighter Z. July 13th for a tow treasure tracker.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Ninjaala, which I'm not familiar with spring. Carcazone coming out. FIFA 19. Ark, Wasteland, Dark Souls, the summer. Monster Hunter, generations, whatever the hell it is.
Starting point is 00:14:28 August 28th. And then the world ends with you, remastered or whatever in fall. Gameplay for the first time. Looking pretty cool. Yeah. I just ran through, that was about 16 things there.
Starting point is 00:14:37 There was more than that. I missed things. And like I said, as I went. And then it was into Smash. Where? That was the rest of the show. Dreams came true as it was meant to be.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Tim, take it away. Oh, it was so good. So awesome. I can't wait to play this game. I am just so happy that it is everything together.
Starting point is 00:14:53 And I do feel like they're going to keep supporting this game years to come. Yeah. And this is going to sell so many fucking units of switches and it's just going to be a great time for everybody. Like, packs will forever be changed.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Pax will be? Yeah, because people can just play this stuff anywhere and do whatever, smash anytime. I'm excited for what you said yesterday, Greg. Were you playing, you were playing a game on your, yeah, I got you. You're playing a game on your monitor yesterday. And I was like, oh, that's so awesome. You're like, you know, do you know that at some point this year, we're going to all huddle around the desk again and play smash.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Netgrantz, so we don't have to huddle around the desk. I guess we could just do SystemLink. right, but it's that fun of like, hey, this is going to be, I want this to be the in-game, in office game. I want this to be the game that's always running, that's always on the switch, that we just buy an office switch. What we've got to do is figure out in this office where we can
Starting point is 00:15:37 finally have a TV setting just to play games. Now, I'm going to tell you this. We have a printer that doesn't work. I know. We just throw it out. You can mount the TV on the wall. We put that TV on that thing and just call it a day. Call it a day. I don't think, we need that TV in here. I think that we could take that TV out of here. That couch being there's going to be deadly.
Starting point is 00:15:54 Yeah, exactly. But then we got to angle I can move my desk to where the couch is. We can put the couch where my desk is. That would work out, right? You're seeing a lot of stuff. That way we can sit down and play. I'm saying a lot of stuff. I think it could work.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Yeah. I don't know if you're agreeing with me or fighting. We'll figure it out because we need an area to play smash. We should have it now just for games we want to play together. Yeah. I mean, I guess there is a smash game that we could play still like three other ones, but whatever. Dude, that's the best thing. I'm not going to have to lug my fucking Wii U around every time we go to the end.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Exactly. That's so fun. That's so cool. Oh, here we go, new am I. The question for me is, how good am I going to be on the switch versus a GameCube controller? I love that GameCube controller. We're talking, smash. Can you just throw this up?
Starting point is 00:16:34 There you go. They got, they got a Ridley. No, no audio, thanks. What does that plug into the actual handheld itself? Or do you have to plug it into the dock? Remember the weird? Oh, the little dongle thing? Yeah, the USB of the dock.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Yeah, you're going to have to. That's my thing is I don't, I think I'm going to leave. And I know I'm not as hardcore as you, obviously. I'm going to just leave it behind for the pro controller. That way I'm ready to go with a normal setup whenever. The thing about the GameCube controller is I don't even play at that level. And it's like, well, I am used to it and do prefer it. It's like, for a while I played with the classic controller on the Wii.
Starting point is 00:17:05 And I was just like, it's fine. Any controller is fine. I'm excited to play it even in handheld mode, like on planes and shit. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I think it's going to be fine with the GameCube controller. I think it's important that they brought it back for the hardcores. To me, it's the same thing as like fight pads for, you know, street fighter.
Starting point is 00:17:23 and all those fighting games. So I don't know. It's exciting. Yeah, I don't really have it. And that's just where I started. So that's what happens. Love that C-Stick, man.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Just makes sense. Makes sense for you. Yeah. It would be nice, though, if they made big JoyCon GameCube attacks. That'd be cool. That'd be real cool.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Yeah, yeah. All about that'd be amazing. Were you expecting to get everybody ever back? No, no, no, no, dude. Not a chance. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:46 I really never thought there was a chance in hell. Like I said earlier, like there's certain characters that I would have bet a lot of money would never, return like Pichu yeah no way and then young link we have tune link like that's why would they do that i like the echo characters that they announced the that look like now they actually giving a reason for dark pit lucina being in the game as clones that are only slightly different uh and yeah adding daisy that's great i hope that means we'll see more of those type of things in the future uh the inkling's
Starting point is 00:18:15 having eight different alternate costumes. I love that type of stuff. That's awesome. The Cappy for Mario and all that, and Breath of Wild Link and originally. Like, there's just so much thought put into this game. So much attention to detail. Like, every character has love put into it.
Starting point is 00:18:30 It doesn't seem like they're half-assing anything. It's really exciting. It's really turning you on. Breaking news, David Hader is back as the voice of snake. That's awesome. David Hater has confirmed that on Twitter. I made it. There was a lot we didn't see.
Starting point is 00:18:45 at this conference that is kind of surprising. You know, there's the big stuff that wasn't guaranteed like Metro Prime and Animal Crossing and big new announcements. But then there was a lot of stuff that I'm shocked we didn't see like Yoshi. Still not getting a title or name for that game and like
Starting point is 00:19:01 yeah, that's true. You feel like that's an August game? So that's weird. But who knows, maybe they'll announce that type of stuff later. Where the fuck's Cornaria? Yeah, I'm sure there's other things I'm missing too. but it felt weird that they talk so much about smash.
Starting point is 00:19:20 I thought it was awesome and I'm not even the biggest smash guy. I think they did another great job of explaining, hey, this is, we know this is our big game. You know it's our big game. Let's actually do this and not drip, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:31 do a very small drip of this stuff. Let's actually come out and make this a huge deal. Yeah, for me as a casual fan, I didn't think it was over the name's look too. It was interesting. I thought it was cool. You know,
Starting point is 00:19:39 I thought it's definitely a celebration of the fact that they're like, yo, we know this is insane, but we did it. I also think I caught you asleep at one point. Asleep? During the smash presentation? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I'm just fucking. They always used to be very interesting with it. Like, we have these numbers and these numbers represent when the character was introduced in the smash series. And we're going to kick it off with number 14. And you're like, okay. It was obviously, they kicked it off with Mario. But then the next one was like 14. I'm like, this is confusing me, but I'm still excited.
Starting point is 00:20:08 The only reason they did that was to build up to the fact that all the numbers are back. I totally understand. Like, yeah. But that's what of those. It's one of those things I totally get it, but then go in order would have built more. You know what I mean? I get that they were introduced and some were out and somewhere in during various different stages. Oh, Markey 66.
Starting point is 00:20:27 It'd be so cool. He'd be so cool of liquid as like an echo character. Yeah. What did you think of echoes? What was that? Oh, you did? Yeah. He said, they're cool.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Oh, echo characters. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're great. And I think Daisy's an awesome addition. What's the snake stage? Shadow Moses. I'm excited for that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:45 It's a great stage. Indeed. And we'll get a Final Destination version of it with Metal Game Music. That's really cool. I didn't realize. Is that the first time they've done the sort of, what is it, the two modes, the Battlefield mode and the. Well, at the Wii one, there was Omega, which was every stage is Final Destination, but then they announced a new one, which is now Battlefield. Which has the platform.
Starting point is 00:21:03 Yeah. That's cool. That's cool. That's cool. Different options. Love that stuff. I hope that this game finally does the most important change smash needs, which is making the default stock instead of time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:14 I don't know, man. Or at least judging based off how this is going, I don't think you're going to get that. At least let us save that option in our profiles or something. It's just different game. You always have to switch that. Weird thing. I'm happy they announced a new character. I'm very happy it's Ridley.
Starting point is 00:21:29 People have been wanting Ridley since like brawl. Yeah. So that's awesome. And I'm happy they showed a new character because I was a little concerned. They were going to end it with just everyone's back, which would have been awesome. Yeah, yeah. Oh my God, I can't believe Ivy Store's back. I'm interested in what this means.
Starting point is 00:21:44 from a boy Charzard because he probably doesn't have his down B anymore because I would change him. So you guys are not gonna have to deal with my Rock Smash bullshit. What do you mean? Oh. Because when they made Charzard his own character in the Wii U version, they added down B move for him because in Brawl his down B was transformed. I see or return or whatever the fuck. Yeah, I'm excited to see what else we get from Smash over the next couple days. Like I think today, by the end of the day, we'll have another character reveal because they're doing this. the smash invitational thing.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Right. And when the Wii U version was announced, they put the Mega Man thing at the end of the direct, and then later on we found out about Wii Fit Trainer. Okay. After the Nintendo conference.
Starting point is 00:22:32 And then at the next D3 showing of it, they had Pelotena, me, fighters, and Pac-Man, and that was over three days. So I think they'll do the same. here. Okay. Well, that's awesome. Without time to rank those abs.
Starting point is 00:22:50 Hit the song, Andy. Ranking the I already forgot the song. Raking the conferences, Waking the conferences. All right, so we never really updated this yesterday. I kind of did it and threw it on the ground. Number one's PlayStation. Number two is Xbox. Number three is
Starting point is 00:23:08 Ubisoft. Number four is Bethesda. Number five is square. Number six is EA. I would put this below Xbox. Maybe below fuck, I don't know. You're saying right now you put it, you're saying it's a three? I think it might be, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:31 For me at least. It's a firm three for me. Obviously, this is like Conference of Dreams for me with Smash Bros. and all that stuff. But like as a whole conference and announcements they made and all that stuff, I feel like Microsoft did have a great showing. And I thought the pacing was off. I thought Ubi was great too, but no musical numbers here.
Starting point is 00:23:53 What I like about Nintendo is I thought they had announcements. I thought they had information. I thought they had excitement, and I thought it had a great clip. I thought it moved really quickly and then got to Smash where I think you needed to actually talk about Smash and explain what Smash was. It didn't waste our time, I feel, as a conference. It didn't muddle around. I don't think any of the conferences this year overall were mind-blown.
Starting point is 00:24:17 God tier. Greatest moment of all time. Tim Tear. Nothing got tier. And so when you get down there, for me, it's in the running for
Starting point is 00:24:23 that number one. I think it was a, I think it was a great conference that showed you what it needed to show you and announce what they needed to announce. I would say, yeah, one or two for me.
Starting point is 00:24:35 But what are you guys saying? I'd say below Xbox because I still needed that one big thing for it. Like, I feel if they showed something for Metroid Prime, that would have been the big pop
Starting point is 00:24:45 of like this was totally unexpected. We knew we were going to get Smash and we got it. Yeah, we were getting all the characters. That's fucking great. Yeah. But we kind of, we knew that we were going to get sort of an in-depth look at Smash. So it wasn't that surprising. I thought Mario Party was the surprise. Yeah. Which is great. Very. So you're voting three? I'm voting three under Xbox. And you're voting what?
Starting point is 00:25:05 I could, I could go either two or three, but I'm trying to think. Definitely cry five, man. That's big for me. But all the characters and shit, I'm going to go two. I'm going to go two. Yeah. Okay. Then yeah, I guess I'll vote too as well. I think it's got a running, but I don't need to get in the fight. I don't need to fight with anybody, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:25:22 Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Thank you very much. Yeah. So there you go. Then the final rankings are for kind of funny's best E3 conferences. Min, I wrote MIM, but I'll know that means NIN. Number one, PlayStation, number two, Nintendo, number three, Xbox, number four,
Starting point is 00:25:37 Ubisoft, number five, Bethesda, number six, square, number seven, EA. What did you think, ladies and gentlemen? Let us know in the comments below. Hell, yeah. We're going to head down to each. We're going to head down to E3, play a bunch of games. We get to play Smash Brothers. I'm very excited about that.
