YAY!

Monday, July 9th, 2007

Question: What do you get when you mix Christmas, Easter, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, and all other holidays, plus cover them in deliciousness? E3! That’s what. The next few days are the most wonderful time of the year for any gamer, and Game Usagi is excited to bring you coverage from our first E3. (Unfortunately from the side-lines, as Nintendo hasn’t noticed little-old us yet ;)) We’ll do our best to bring you all of the amazingly awesome happenings throughout the next couple of days. For starters, here are the times of the big 3’s press conferences. (Make sure to watch them all live on GameSpot.com!)

MICROSOFT – Tuesday, July 10th, 8:30 pm PT (9:30 pm CST)

NINTENDO – Wednesday, July 11th, 9:30 am PT (10:30 am CST)

SONY – Wednesday, July 11th, 11:30 am PT (12:30 am CST)

E3!  ZOMG!

Kawaii!

 

I have been neglecting this site as of late and would like to apologize for the lack of updates. Essentially Nintendo is to blame ^_^. One of the problems of having a news site run by a dedicated gamer is that they’ll definitely make playing cool new games a priority over posting news updates on the site. This is exactly what has happened with me. Below is a list of all of the games that I am currently concentrating on playing (so it does not include any of the many games that I am intermittently playing):

Wii

Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition

Mario Party 8

Super Paper Mario

Trauma Center

DS

Pokemon Diamond

Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (good game, even in Japanese!)

360

Ring of Death’d 🙁

PSP

Me & My Katamari

Loco Roco

Lumines II

Game Cube

Metroid Prime 2

Pikmin 2

Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes

So, you can see that my time is amply occupied with this, not to mention my job selling video games most days. ^_^

Anyways, E3 is swiftly approaching and I wanted to assure you that Game Usagi will do our best to give you top-notch coverage of everything interesting that goes down.

P.S. We’re hiring!

UPDATE: Add these to the list, thanks to my 3.40 OE-A firmware PSP (and Lumines):

PSP

Illusion of Gaia (SNES)

Megaman Battle Network 6: Cybeast Gregar (GBA)

Final Fantasy VII (PS1)

Rumour: Nintendo Media Summit?

Nintendo 2006 E3 Press Conference
 
There’s a buzz on the internet about Nintendo holding a press event on May 22nd and 23rd.  This is slightly reminiscent of the good old Nintendo Spaceworld conference that Nintendo held back in the day.  Apparently, we can expect some third-party news as well as a slew of information on Smash Bros. Brawl and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.  Apparently 6 PM PST is the time on the 22nd to be on the look-out for news.  Game Usagi will keep you updated on any more info regarding this supposed conference.

Rumour: NOA Headquaters Moving?

NOA HQ

Nintendo of America is currently stationed in Redmond, WA right next to… Microsoft HQ! So, there are rumours going around that the current setup is not amicable and that Nintendo is considering moving its headquarters to either San Francisco (home of E3) or New York (home of the Nintendo World Store). Apparently employees were internally told that they could vote for one of the two locations or be let go. They should get big trucks with the Nintendo logo on the side for when they move! That’d be so cool…
