I do admit some of those are games I have interest in. Mass Effect 3, Batman: Arkham City, Uncharted 3 and Bioshock: Infinite being primary ones.
I guess I'll be interested if they show other stuff like Anarchy Reigns or whatever.

I think that the Wii U in general (I really hope they change that name very soon) was pretty interesting. Nintendo has always been really good about giving developers a lot of space to navigate with all sorts of control possibilities. Unfortunately, that's also the biggest problem. If they can't think of anything creative to do with that controller (big WHOA on that thing) then the failure of the Wii U is out of Nintendo's hands.
I just need to get a 3DS first...

3DS excites me exuberantly.

PSP Vis just might be the coolest handheld I've seen, especially considering the support it already has AND the crazy amount of games for that PSN shop. Also really looking forward to Street Fighter x Tekken (MIKE ROSS APPROVES)

The Wii U is an interesting concept. The controller seems kind of bulky but all the floor reports say it's actually nice to hold and light too. Which I would expect nothing less from Nintendo. And it supports the Wiimote and such, which is actually a good thing. I'm also not going to lie, that Zelda demo they had for it was gorgeous. They also sold the 3DS for me. I wasn't sure about getting one right away before, but with Ocarina 3DS on the way and Super Mario and Luigi's Mansion 2, I'm down. Not to mention new Smash Bros for both it and the Wii U, with some cross play going, I'll probably have to get both and experiment. PSVita is probably going to be a day one buy if Uncharted is a launch title. Sony knows how to pull my ball and chain about. And Uncharted 3 is looking as sexy as ever. Also, I'm totally going to that 25th anniversary Zelda concert if it comes somewhere within a reasonable driving distance to me. I really want to see some dates announced for that. Microsoft was too Kinect driven. Some of the voice commands things have me interested, like with Ghost Recon and Mass Effect, but that's definitely not enough to make me go out and buy one. More like a polite nod to the people that have already bought one. Also, on the subject of Smash Bros, I'm a bit worried because I heard a rumor that the Wii U might not support Gamecube controllers. I think out of my friend group, one person can actually play well with something other than a Gamecube controller. I guess I could learn but... I don't wanna. Oh, and Mario Party 9. I wished for it, and it was granted. Sorry Dan.

It's pretty crazy that they're putting Cole McGrath into Street Fighter X Tekken. At first I thought that he'd be a bit too superhuman for the game. Then I remembered what the cast of Street Fighter consists of. Mass Effect 3 looks great. Big fan of the series and I'm really interested to see how they resolve it, even if, to be honest the main plot of the second game is actually quite flimsy (the characters however are really well-done). Could care less for the Kinect functionality (if it ends up working at all) but the game itself honestly looks quite impressive. A game I found pretty cool was one called "NeverDead" where the hero's basically immortal kinda like a mix of Mr. Immortal and Wolverine. The character is effectively nigh-indestructible but does break into various pieces/limbs if he takes damage, which means he can very well end up as a big ol' stump and somehow can still move on. The concept seems cool at least. Anarchy Reigns looks bitchin'. Big fan of Platinum Games (Bayonetta in my mind is one of the best skill-based action games out there) and I did like MadWorld, though it got repetitive quick. Nonetheless the combat looks highly improved. That and it has one of the best portrayals of a black person ever. (Fun Fact: Shares the same voice actor as Sazh of FFXIII and one of the annoying Transformers in the film series) The various systems look impressive and all, but I tend to focus on the games. That's just me though. My mother, having a love for new technology (though she got savvy to Apple products) would probably eventually take note of these.

Yeah The SFxTekken Cole thing threw me for a loop, lol. I'm in a bit of an inFamous mode right now, just having got the first one for free after the PS-hack incident lol.
Upset the SE didn't get any KH up in that mother, though. I still have no idea what the hell is going on in any of the KH DDD trailers so that woulda been nice.
Also, it was a long shot, but I woulda liked it if Atlus said something about P5. I only got into the series last year, lol. At the beginning of the school year, my roommate and I moved into our new house like a week before school started and we just chilled in the basement while he played P4, and constantly asked me for the stats on enemies cuz I was on my computer. I was his Rise-chan~ >.<
Then at the end of the year I borrowed his P3P and beat the game (Max social links, Orpheus Telos, the whole shebang) in like 2 weeks, I got kinda obsessed with it lol.
And with the announcement of the new Super Smash Bros, means they're gonna need some more characters! Any number one draft picks you're hoping for? Megaman and Animal Crosser. Hands down they gotta make it.

Well for Smash Bros I have a list of good ones:
I forever will stick by Megaman as a pick. Either classic or X is fine. I don't want Volnutt even though I love Legends. And I really don't want Battle Network Megaman, especially the latest version. But Capcom isn't particularly loyal to Nintendo to influence them.
Knuckle Joe would be a cool fighter for the hand to hand players.
Also, even though I hate feeding Tyler, Knuckles and Tails would be good.
Pac-man would be okay.
Now for characters that I would hate to ever see in the series:
Cloud Strife. Even though I know it'll never happen I'm fucking tired of hearing it. Or anyone from any Final Fantasy game. I don't care if the first 6 were on Nintendo systems.
Peppy. I don't want to hear about doing a barrel roll and how much I am like my father.
Ryu. He's in too many games as is.
Spider-man. That's just stupid and everyone behind it is dumb :3

Oh, and Mario Party 9. I wished for it, and it was granted. Sorry Dan. I have every single Mario Party except 1 (my cousins took it), 2, and 4. The best part of 9 is the fact that you just KNOW they have to make an even 10, lol. As for Super Smash Bros, nothing really comes to mind. Paper Mario would be a fun addition though.
