Hochiminh Rant Day 8 May 10, 2006
The press conferences are over, and I can’t help that, although there were MANY new IP’s at the conference, I was slightly dissappointed.
I didn’t really care about the exact launch date and price. In fact, I think it is better that they keep it a secret for now. It is WAY too early and they have plenty of ample time to think of an appropriate launch and price at a later date.
What I was surprised, immediately right after the show, was “Where’s Smash Bros.? But I came to realize that they are saving it for today’s floor. It is the game everyone wants to see. They aren’t going to shoe it at the press conference. Too many people would go crazy. Plus, Reggie is trying to make us forget about Smash Bros. Tell you what? I didn’t. It’s obviously going to be shown today. In playable form probably. Man, I wish I was at E3 for this.
There are so many other things to look forward too. The Virtual Console titles (whatever they may be), ExciteTruck, Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Red Steel, Madden 2007, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz, and many, many others.





















True, I did forget Smash for awhile, though. But now I am extremely hungry for it.
It was shown, but won’t be here till ‘07.
