Wow, controls are a bit glitchy.

 

[scnj]

This is going poorly. I'm almost embarrassed for them.

 

[Awake-]

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want that sword and shield...

Everyone surprised by this, raise your hand.

I'll never understand how people can play the Wii. So tiring. Swing, jab, swing, swing.

Imma put this in a spoiler because it's long and I update a ton.

Spoiler

5:11 This Zelda looks really unresponsive. Damn, I thought it'd be good.
5:12 Enemies just turtle. Fun.
5:14 Unresponsive bomb controls look awkward.
5:16 If they fix up those response issues, archery could be epic.
5:17 OHGODYES Link gets a whip!
5:19 We, that's Zelda over for now. Let's hope it's better in the actual game part.

5:22 Editing this, looks like a whole punch of crappy sports games with Mario in it. Really, Nintendo? Really?
5:24 Reggie's just wanking off the Wii. *Sigh*
5:26 Wii Party. Nintendo are officially dead for me. It's just Mario Party with Miis. Nintendo, here's some advice: PUT SOME FRIGGING EFFORT INTO GAMES. Edit: Funny stuff, one person clapped for it.
5:27 Just Dance 2. No. Just no.
5:29 Golden sun 3! Maybe Nintendo aren't too awful![sub]Who am I kidding?[/sub]
5:31 Looks like just pure Golden Sun fun! No gimmicks so far! Yes, GOD YES.
5:31(2) Goldeneye remake. Eh, not too bothered aout this, didn't play the original. Looks decent.
5:35 Epic Mickey. A bunch of old Disney characters trying to kill Mickey. Looks like a standard platformer+brawler with a gimmick.
5:38 Huh. Mickey Mouse with EPIC CHOICES THAT DEPEND ON THE PLAYER. Yeah, not believing it so far.
5:39 Having to go through a platform level for each transition? Jeez, no thank you.
5:43 What. Kirby's Epic Yarn? What is this cutsey crap? Where's my absorbing? Where's my rock? Where's Dedede? Where's the actual easy to see filled in colour? GWAH
5:46 Wait, were they announcing something? Sorry, I expected a little more hype. Uhh, Dragon Quest. Yeah.
5:47 Oh hey, Metroid Other M. Looks... fun. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THIS SHOW? Something fun looking suddenly appearing?! I'm so confused!
5:49 Donkey Kong is now a... odd looking Platformer. I'm confused as to whether or not to like this.
5:52 3DS. Looks expensive.
5:54 That trailer was useless! Show us something! Anything!
5:55 No, we cannot see the inches on each 3DS screen. Please, give us the sizes, we really want to know.
5:57 So only one screen gets 3D. That'll be harsh on the eyes. But, apparently they've improved the DS graphics. We'll see, Nintendo. we'll see.
6:00 Movies? On a DS screen? That is not useful, Nintendo. This is why people need glasses.
6:01 Hey, Pit! Wait, what was up with that voice? Oh, it's a rail shooter with 5 minute stages, because after that, Pit's "power" wears off. Still not looking very good Nintendo.
6:05 3DS 3DS 3DS. We get it, the 3DS is great, cool, show us something new.
6:08 Nintendogs+cats *HEADDESK**HEADDESK**HEADDESK*
6:09 A bunch of 3DS developers. Didn't catch all of 'em, my head was bleeding a bit too much from previous headdesking.
6:16 My internet bugged up and I lost connection. Is it bad if I was happy about that
6:17 Bunch of women giving out 3DS'. At least they know how to appeal to gamers, even if it is in the wrong way.
6:18 It's over. Finally. Christ that was boring, let's hope the other are better. Still, that won't be hard.

Maybe they'll realize how terribly it controls before they release it now and fix it?

 

[Plinglebob]

This is going poorly. I'm almost embarrassed for them.

I'm tempted to put it down to bad sensors due to them being on stage, but we'll see what people on the show floor say I think. Nice enough idea, but I really hope there's a lazy/easy option.

They'd better. This is really awkward.

 

[DustyDrB]

Miyamoto is still the most likeable guy in the industry. Not liking the art direction here, though.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

I like the idea behind the Zelda controls and the game looks good but the demo looks awkward.

It's possible, but the Kinect people didn't seem to have any problems.

 

[Nmil-ek]

Controls look alittle clunky but not a wii guy.

Least Miyamoto seems to actually be having fun, better than the canned acting from Microsoft or forced humour from Ubiusoft but still I predict heavy shovelware pandering to come.

 

[Titanguy654]

Haha arrow fail.

 

[megamanenm]

Oh god... the controls...

The reactions were kind of off in the games for the Kinect as well, actually.

That was all prerecorded with play acting.

But they had things set up like you would at home. Here I can't even figue out where the sensor bar is.

 

[RMcD94]

Horrible motion sensors.

 

[GuerrillaClock]

It doesn't appear to be working very well, at the minute.

 

[scnj]

Ahh, now they roll out the excuses. Severely underwhelming.

 

[Nmil-ek]

Ha control fail thats going to be hard to recover from.

I had no idea phones could interupt infared devices...
