Even though Nintendo’s conference is over, E3 hasn’t ended. In fact, it’s just begun! Expect a ton of additional news as well as previews and who knows what else throughout the day. Also, Nintendo is hosting a second roundtable later tonight for the Wii U, so you might want to tune in for that! It’ll kick off at 5:30 PM PDT / 8:30 PM EDT assuming it starts on time.


Back to the old (or should I say new?) gallery system. Had some issues, but they’ve been fixed. Sorry about the crummy galleries we had to use earlier!

Check out this little tidbit from a Kotaku article…

“‘We’re considering our options with maybe two screens,’ Eguchi told Kotaku, who said he considers multiple New Controller games to be ‘an interesting idea.’ That would mean games that used two new Wii U controllers. Eguchi’s five-player prototype, here at E3, has one person using a new controller and four other people using Wii Remote-Nunchuck combos.”

Okay… this kind of contradicts what the Nintendo spokesperson said about controllers not being sold separately. If games with two controllers are made available, how will we be able to purchase the second controller?

This information comes from a Nintendo spokesperson…

“Both the controller and the console will be sold as one unit. You won’t be able to buy the controller alone.”

Well, that does kind of sound odd to me. The tech demos at this point have only featured one tablet controller, but does this mean we won’t see any multi-tablet games in the future?

Planet Crashing Opportunities Will Be Plentiful This Year As Planet Crashers 3D Joins Planet Crashers For Social/Mobile From Sister Company UTV True Games

Los Angeles – Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) Booth #5500 – June 7, 2011- UTV Ignition Games today announced at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), that Planet Crashers 3D is currently in development and will be available for Nintendo 3DS™ in early 2012. Based on the original Planet Crashers IP that is coming to mobile and browser-based platforms later this year through Ignition’s sister company, UTV True Games, this Nintendo 3DS-specific version combines classic quest-oriented gameplay with light-hearted RPG combat. Planet Crashers 3D also introduces competitive multiplayer modes and endless character customization that freshens the beloved genre.


According to Katsuya Eguchi, Wii U discs will be able to store 25 gigabytes of data. As we reported a few weeks ago, that’s triple the size of Wii and Xbox 360 discs. The number is also comparable to the Blu-ray discs that Sony use for the PlayStation 3.
