Nintendo actually won E3 for sure on this one better then the last two years I say. I am gonna list my highlights of games I will looking forward to to. I will also list one Sony game that did caught my attention.


Nintendo


Nintendo really made up for the last two years i really have to say on this one. 

Kirby (Working Title)


For Nintendo Switch

This Kirby game looks amazing! They brought back abilities like Clean (with Nago the cat making a cameo) and the Water ability from Kirby's Return To Dreamland and the Anime, But also a form of combo abilities from Kirby 64 and the return of the helper system from Kirby Super Star and Ultra! This game seems to be a revival of the canceled Kirby title for the GameCube title they worked on in the past so they may bring back the concepts they once tried to add in the original GameCube version.

This game will release in 2018



Metroid Prime 4


For Nintendo Switch


Yes for so long in years we get a new Metroid/Prime game! Now these fans can finally stop whining now! This game is currently in Development. 



Yoshi (Working Title) 


For: Nintendo Switch

This was unexpected surprise but we get a new Yoshi game. I almost thought it was a Yoshi's Woolly World Sequel but it seems more different like a combo between Yoshi's Woolly World and Yoshi's Story. The name is not final of course you wonder. But this game seems to be in the style of fabric and other materials. The player is able to flip between the front and back of stages and is able to throw Yoshi Eggs on a three-dimensional plane.


This game will release in 2018


Super Mario Odyssey 


For: Nintendo Switch


This just might end up being my favorite main 3D Mario game but I will wait till I play it first 
:o
But man now were back in Super Mario 64 and Sunshine style! This game has a crap ton of elements from the past to the present were traveling in real world based areas like New Donk City! Mario will dress up in various outfits and can also posses enemies and other creatures even a T-Rex!
Additionally this game is my main highlight and for the first time we get a Jazz Lyrics song for this game who is sung surprisingly by Mario's old girlfriend from Donkey Kong Pauline! Who is the mayor of New Donk City and owns a band! There has been hints for Donkey Kong to appear in the game too but will see in time. This game looks really unique :D

This game will release October. 27th, 2017


Sonic Forces (SEGA)


For: Nintendo Switch

Oh boy Sonic Forces is getting better I am surprised to see Zavok, Shadow, Chaos (0) surprisingly, Metal Sonic are returning but a new villain named Infinite :o
I am quite sold on this game!

This game will release in this year.


Metroid: Samus Returns


For: Nintendo 3DS

Yes Metroid II: Return of Samus is being remade for the 3DS! Now I see why Nintendo took the fan game down known as "Another Metroid 2 Remake" now. Now that makes the 2D Metroid Fans happy!
This game will release September 15th, 2017



Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle (Ubisoft)


For: Nintendo Switch

I know this was announced a couple of times but Nintendo has shown a trailer for the Mario & Rabbids Crossover.

This game will release August 29, 2017



Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions 


For: Nintendo 3DS

14 Years ago in 2003 we had a legendary RPG game known as Mario & Luigi: Super Star Saga now it has been given a graphical make over with a new add on mode known as Bowser's Minions which the Koopa Demon's minions own this as there own game in ways. Now this leaked game found in the files of the 3DS eShop is a true legit officially. 

I am so looking forward to this remake someday we should get a remake of Partners In Time & Bowser's Inside Story! I also wouldn't even mind some remakes of the first 3 Paper Mario games.

This game will release August 29, 2017



amiibos


These amiibos look freaking amazing. The Super Mario amiibos in the wedding outfits would go well on wedding cakes (mainly Mario and Peach's). Mario's wedding out resembles his magician outfit sorta from Super Mario All Stars. Peach's Wedding outfit resembles her paper versions Wedding dress from Super Paper Mario. Bowser is something new boy he looks like a bad ass pimp :xD:
I wasn't hoping for these in one of my previous journals but these are really awesome and new! Will I am sure a Wave 4 will happen with my predictions.

I do love the the Champion Amiibos for The Legend Of Zelda Breath Of The Wild so detailed...

Samus and the Metroid looks well done and polished as well.






Sony


I really don't have much for say on Sony who is my second favorite first party company in the gaming industry. But Crash Bandicoot N Sane Trilogy caught my attention even seeing an official reveal of Coco Bandicoot playable in both Crash and 2. No longer just a few levels from the third one.


Microsoft


I don't really have a comment on Microsoft since I am normally not really a big fan for there games and consoles but I do love there computers and accessories. I did hear there performance was good.

Thoughts


What did I think of E3 2017?

Sony's was good to me but I think you get idea what I liked above only.

As for Nintendo's E3 the reveals and trailers in the Spotlight were quite the hype I have to say. However I have complaints regarding the Tree Houses they have been doing since last year. I think on what they perform on sucks.

I won't be too harsh on them but they really need to stop doing those Treehouse Events for E3 from now on. It's just boring and a waste of time to just spoil the gameplay too much like not many people are gonna really watch that waste of a show some have a life to watch them i know you can watch them later as they are uploaded but still and they sometimes just run out ideas too easily and repeat the same game over and over at least sometimes they show some newer stuff (like showing the co-op for Super Mario Odyssey today) after they jsut repeat it again but most of the time it's the same thing and it can get quite boring. Some of the staff are pretty bad at playing the games too and play in a very spammy noobish way and it just takes so much time increase to see them die (unless it's based on a game where one is a winner while the other loses like ARMS) about so many times like let's 6 times. Like they couldn't even get a pro player to just take the controller? it just ruins the gameplay and to watch. I understand it can be a challenge for some players but from what it seems some of the levels in let's say Super Mario Odyssey were easy for other games too. Getting casual players was not really a good choice to show the gameplays to be honest.

They do a terrible job on revealing new games on the Treehouses and they said that "we will expect some surprises" yeah like what? Other than the Metroid II Remake that was a surprise for sure and some sushi puzzle game...? Yeah that's real something alright *sarcasm*. Starting with Day 2 after the Metroid II remake reveal it started to get stale and I considered Day 3 to be the worst since all they did was repeat the same games we already know and I wanted some gameplay of Kirby (Switch) yet they left that out? I was even hopping for gameplay of that Action Multiplayer Fighting Kirby game for the 3DS that is supposed to release this Holiday along with some more gameplay time for the remake of Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga they barley showed much for that remake. Look I know "we don't get what we want" but that is my reasonable opinion on this and they mostly just showed games that we mostly know they barely revealed brand new ones. I do think that getting a Smash 4 port for the switch to be a little early so a lot of fans are only mad at Nintendo for that and I am not wanna of those bad fans and who whines and gets really greedy but what I wanted was the Mario Maker Switch and the Action Kirby Multiplayer Fighting game. I am kinda disappointed they didn't show up. On the bright side the games were great and and this was done better then the last 2 years. All I want them to get rid of is the Treehouse and make it similar to the E3 2015 after there done with the trailers but of course better. I am sick of watching Tree Houses for 3 Days wasting my time for newer reveals while these repeats hog up the time! But the Spotlight they can keep going with it that was a cool idea they had which is worth the watch.:D

I will be giving Nintendo 3.5/5 for at least trying harder. :D 

I hope you enjoyed my long journal for this years E3 I do hope 2018 will be a bigger blast :D

While I would love a Partners in Time Remake, I feel like it makes a little less sense given you can still play it on a 3DS. I would love to see an HD remake of Paper Mario 64. Though something in me makes me doubt that, though I see a 3DS
