Nintendo hoping not to be so lame at E3 this year photo

Who can forget Nintendo's cringeworthy performance at E3 last year? In between Cammie's embarrassing jokes, Reggie loving that throttle, Ravi Drums doing his best Michael J Fox impression and the cacophonous mess that was the Wii Music demonstration, it left a sour taste. Reggie Fils-Aime has today gotten to the meat of the matter, and hopes that we'll see a more savory performance this year.

"From Nintendo's perspective, we always go into E3 with a very high bar wanting to satisfy not only the core fans but also ourselves," explains the minestrone maestro. "We're hoping to do a much better job this year. You'll have to see for yourself."

We're a bit worried that Reggie aims to satisfy himself at E3 this year, as I can only envisage him having a luxurious wank on stage in front of the silent, grimacing press, naked and rubbing his chest with his one free hand, sometimes massaging his perineum and grunting loudly the whole time, edging grimly closer to a braying orgasm while Cammie says, "You really love that throttle, Reggie," and begins to wipe up his knob nectar with crisp dollar bills.

Oh, and Spirt Tracks might get a release date at the show.

That last paragraph, coupled with the picture...frightening.

That said...after last year's debacle, they can only go up. Right?

Then miyamoto comes on in a pink dress and says "I'm not peach but I do know her" and they start going at it.

I don't think you realize the magnitude of that last paragraph there Jim.

They're going to have to try very blanking hard to get my attention. They've got a not R4, an XBOX 360 and a PS2 that's still puting out more core games than they are to contend with in this camp.

"or were hiring supermodels to provide free blow jobs for every gamer in the world or whatever"

If the delivered on that promise, they just may be able to turn things around.

I think the part about that last paragraph that disgusted me the most is that Cammie was in it.

I was curious if you'd come up with a new descriptor for the meat-man. Minestrone maestro is one I don't think you've used before.

Excellent piece. I'm just not sure why Nintendo would bother attending E3 at all, I mean it's not like they're producing proper games anymore. For me (and their grossly expanded alternate auduence) they're more like dyson or flymo these days.

Jim should quit and start writing erotic novels. Only logical career move after that piece.

ZOMG YOU MENTIONED NEW ZELDA GAME!!!
yeah, can't say this is gunna be good... I don't think we can hope for anything better then either Wii Dancing or Drawing. Heck, might as well combine them, you'll do the exact same thing to win by not actually accomplishing anything.

"Oh, and Spirt [sic] Tracks might get a release date at the show."

Phonetically, I think this might be my favorite Freudian slip of all time given the paragraph that leads into it.

Since Nintendo at least tacitly admitted to how badly they fucked up E3 last year they should come out with at least one or two worthwhile announcements this time around. I can't really think of any possible things to blow my socks off but there's a lot that could.

The only possible way Nintendo could get me hooked to their announcements is if they announce a new Smash Bros. That game is the best series Nintendo has ever made and they need another one. I don't wanna wait another 7 years for a new smash bros like we did with Brawl, even though it was pretty much worth it. I wonder what new outsiders they could put in it?
