Does anyone else anticipate the Vita/NGP blowout over the Project Cafe reveal?

I mean do not get me wrong the Cafe is interesting and I hope it turns out well but the fact that their are no pictures of it sort of kills the hype for me a little bit. This is as if I imagine what it looks like and its specs I will most likely end up disappointed and filled with scorn for Nintendo ( hyperbole I know).

The 360 I am not hyped for because of last years show, and the PS3 and 360 share alot of their games. I guess seeing a Rare game would be nice or maybe show Too Human 2. I just am not hyped for the supposed Halo remake because as much of a classic the first was, it has not aged terribley and is backwards compatible with the 360.

The Psp I am not hyped for because their will not be many games to show (unless Capcom finally sheds light on the Resident Evil title they promised >_> ).

I guess I am somewhat excited about the 3DS announcements on the line up but what really makes me excited about the NGP is that I am a huge psp fan. The NGP games shown at the reveal looked good (aside from the tacked on gimmicks in Uncharted ) but I am curious onto the line up of the device and what Sony has coming.

The device also catches my attention because it is said to be priced competitively and Sony's ad campaign so farseems pretty down to Earth (saying it was not as powerful as the PS3, saying that it does not make phonecalls, and distancing it from the Ps3's mistakes via declaring it would not cost $600). I mean the details on the device could really help me decide rather or not to buy this or the 3DS initially. (Although I plan to buy both eventually).

A rumor I hope is true is the declaration that it is the Vita as I personally prefer that to 3DS... Much better sound to it in my opinion.

Does anyone else find the tease and almost complete and utter withdraw of information on the NGP/Vita and the fact that it has an announced list of developers who will potentially announce titles to be more enticing than a mystical console with little information?

I'm more excited for the Vita.

Cafe has hardware and software reveal. PSV just has software...wolverine4262

But that could be a point of why some would hype the PSV more as they know what the device is and want to know the line up and more concrete details.

Its like saying their is a new Star Wars and showing an awesome trailer for a different movie and then opening both in theatres.

Vita for sure ... but I am also keeping an eye on Cafe till I know its specs then it shall be as dead as thwe Wii for me ( unless Nintendo blows me away with something totally unexpectd).

Funny because the Cafe is rumored to get ports of 360 games and the 3DS has been recieving ports and remakes galore...

I mean none of theVita titles announced so far are ports from what I understand.

I do not get how ports would be a bad thing though (if you do not like it you do not have to buy it), I mean the MGS collection is coming to the 360 and many ps2 gamers who did not buy a Ps3 initially due to it's ludicrous price will find enjoyment in these PS2 ports as will Ps3 gamers.

Spreading good games out is a good thing in my opinion and games like the Orcarina of Time remake introduce classics to new gamers. I do not see how enhanced ports and remakes are viewed in such negative conatations.

Depends on what Project Cafe turns out to be. If they abandon motion controls for this rumored touchscreen gamepad, frankly I'll be quite disappointed. ThePlothole

both tbh will be good...but new hardware is new hardware it's hard to top that

True some of the rumours and minor details sound very inticing and it is perfectly understandable that there would be hype for the Cafe and Zelda HD, Mario HD, etc. I really anticipate the presentation of the device as it could potentially be a disaster or could work out very well. I am also anticipating that they will leave some aspects of the Cafe up for speculation which makes me anticipate the console even less.

For the device itself though I definately anticipate the Vita more do to the fact that the general specs and features of the device are known as well as a couple of titles. This leads me to anticipate the Vita presentation more as I have compiled information and the details and line up they reveal could justify me purchasing a Vita before a 3DS.

Nah. I want software and when it comes to my tastes I know TGS is the only event thatll get me actually excited for the NGP.

E3 can be a bit too western focused.

Cafe pretty much has all my excitement.

I excited for both. Can't wait to see what Cafe looks like and to see what other games Vita has to offer.

Cafe for me.

Cafe... but Vita is cool too

Consumers will look forward to the NGP compared to the Nintendo console because the NGP will arrive sometime this year in at least a single territory (followed shortly after in other territories). The Nintendo console's keynote will more than likely be along the lines of the 3DS keynote. At E3 2009,Nintendo had a 3DS prototype device and software which was also prototypical. The NGP on the other hand will have actual fleshed out 1st party titles and third party titles becausedevs have been working on devkits since 2008.The NGP will also have pre-orders from numerous companies like amazon begging and around the time the price for the NGP announced (assuming it is announced tomorrow).

There is a chance some consumers will look to invest in the Ninty console however, the NGP will provide the products/services at least one entire year before the Ninty console arrives. Around the time the Ninty console arrives, the NGP would have time to deliver on all or most goods and services promised at this yeas E3 (from betas to early concepts). There is also going to be even more prospects for consumers (of the NGP) to look forward to at the 2012 E3 when more games and things of that nature are reveled.

Looking forward to the PSP 2 a lot. A lot. Best wishes to those going to E3!

I find consoles to be more interesting than handhelds because they typically have more appeal to gamers over 13 and more great games to play.

Therefore, I'm more excited for Project Cafe vs the NGP at this point.

Pervert! :B

Cafe a lot more than Vita, but I am interested in both.

This E3 has me excited for anything possibly relating to Rayman Origins, Beyond Good and Evil 2, Dragon Quest X, and anything Nintendo. Otherwise I'm not interested in anything else much. So I'd go for Project Cafe for sure

As interested as I am in NGP, for me handhelds don't so much as take a back seat, but may as well me fastened to the back wheel for all I care, when comparing to home consoles.

if you go by the general opinions on forums such as these then a touchscreen isn't going to be any more popular.

And it's worth noting that critics often out voice supporters, regardless of their actual percentage.

I'm much more interested in Nintendo's new console but my gut is telling me that Nintendo will find a way somehow to disappoint us. I hope I'm wrong.

I'm sorry, Vita? Sounds like a geweric energy drink. Did Sony let their IT department name their handheld?

Anyone who believes for a second that Project Cafe will not own this year's E3 is sadly mistaken. I'm not even all that interested in it, but I'm sure we all know that people go nuts over new consoles, especially anything from Nintendo. MrSelf-Destruct

Don't get me wrong I'm excited for it and I agree that people go crazy over fresh new consoles. But will Nintendo deliver the goods? I want to see some good hardware specs for this console along with games and prove to me that 3rd party devs are on board and fully committed. If they can do that for me I'll be happy.

Maybe not, I will at least wait to see the syste at E3. And I always was talking about gamers, so sorry for the confusion.SaltyMeatballs
