Some of Wii and Wii U E3 press conferences ..

All I remember about the Wii presentation (or was it the Wii U?) is someone excitedly exclaiming "It's only as big as 3 DVD cases!!!"

Of all the features you could herald about your new system you chose this? Really?

I just remembered , it was the 2008 E3 Nintendo press conference ! The most epic fail i ever saw which made it look even worse because at the time Wii was a huge success and everyone was hyped to death for whats next.

I don't like to see any game flop, I want them all to be great.

It was funny to see Sony fans applaud and cheer when Sony announced they were charging for online play at E3 though.

Agreed on both. But my favorite is that guy playing the air drums during the Wii Music demo. I die at that

Which game/console/accessory was your favorite to watch flop? Or what was your favorite fail moment?

Example: my favorite flop was watching everyone meltdown after No Man's Sky was released. Also, my favorite fail moment has to be Sony's PS3 presentation with their "real time weapon switch" and "riiiiidge racer!"

What are some of your favorites??

Easily No Man's Sky & The Order 1886. LOL!! Watching Cows damage control these crappy games was the highlight of my week.

Watching El Tormo & Dukar damage control PS Now -vs- XGP. That was comedy gold right there. It doesn't get much better then that.

The XBox 360 was ahead of the PS3 for almost all of last gen. PS3 didn't pass them until after Microsoft stopped XBox 360 production. They outsold the PS3 worldwide for the first 2 years. Outsold the PS3 in the US for 32 months straight - http://www.theverge.com/2013/10/18/4851158/september-npd-report-ps3-beats-360

XBox 360 graphics were superior to the PS3 for most of the generation. PS3 play catchup in that area as well. Almost all the 3rd party games were inferior to the XBox 360 versions. Even the JRPG's sold better on the XBox 360 then the PS3 in the US.

Andromeda. Bioware have sort of been very much shit for a long while, but the pink haired media parroting how wonderful they are blabbering a bit pile of Polygon pish. It's also EA, and anything bad happening to EA is generally good for the world.

It's petty, but it's also satisfyingly good to see ill brought upon them, probably more entertaining than the game itself. Cheaper too, and won't waste 40 hours of your time.

yeah i'm going with andromeda as well. about time bioware got ripped for trotting out shit

I thought the release of Duke Nukem Forever release was a lolfest. The game is just hilariously bad and we all knew it would be bad, and the developers just taking so long to get it made, and how they disappeared for years and years then come back to show a pile of crap, and we're like "lol" and then finally Gearbox got fed up and released the game and it sucked and we lol'd but it was worth celebrating because it was a long following into a pile of shit.

Watching Duke Nukem Forever come out was like watching that really slow fat kid finish last in a race by a large margin, and you still clapped and cheered for them finishing at all but you really felt bad.

I ended up buying the game because it was like a moment in history right there. It belongs in a museum somewhere.

Really, the tech isn't advance enough for Kinect and doesn't desrve a second chance.

Not only was Kinect stupid, but it was racist too. It literally had trouble recognizing the existence of people with dark skin. lol

Yeah, sucked when Bulldozer failed. Up until that point, I had used both AMD and intel processors when upgrading my main gaming rig equally.

Shortly after that the core 2 duos launched, and I've never used AMD since, except for media pc/Network storage PC.

Xbox one reveal 2 hours of my life wasted on that shit.

ME Andromeda, this one is more disappointing as I was looking forward to jumping back into that universe but Bioware went full R especially with Ogre face as the main character.

Sony PSN subscription on Ps4. Was a joke especially during launch with nothing to justify it. Driveclub being free....and then ending up having to be in a que and wait for someone to log off before you could enter multiplayer during its launch.

the funniest Fail was Devil' third.(LOL Devil's turd)

because:1. Nintendo decided to publish this game on North america instead of publishing a Better game.(for example that Fatal Frame game)

2. and Itagaki Overhyped his game pretty badly.(LOL, "This game will Bosst WiiU sales.")

Wishing for games to flop is childish and asinine.

But I have no problem wishing ill will towards services/policies that are negative for the industry. Such as when Microsoft tried to have PC gamers pay to play online back when Games for Windows LIVE was being pushed. Or when Sim City had it's "always online" feature which caused mountains of headaches. (I'm glad the always online mantra has largely failed)

@harnessthepower: When a Hello Kitty (GameCube) game outscored the first Killzone (PS2). Killzone was 'teh Halo Killer'. Or, when Microsoft released "Blinx the Time Sweeper", which they said would kill Mario and Crash Bandicoot.

I generally don't like to see something flop or fail relating to gaming but I would say that I was very glad when 'Augment your Pre-order' was dropped for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.

The VR estimates flop. It was predicted to sell 2.5 million or something like that, and the cows were praising the company who predicted it. Then when the same company lowered it's prediction to 750k the cows attacked them as not being a reliable source, great times lol.

Yet continue to praise Microsoft. You've clearly picked your side, yet hide behind this "manti-core" tag. Bit rich calling me a troll when majority of your posting history is "720p Flopstation Poo". You're quite creative

Sounds good alt. Whatever trips your trigger. Who are we to discount your opinions here on the forum? I mean, there are no issues with you trolling, but at least you could try to be a bit more subtle. Personally, I am glad to be able to play and enjoy all the systems, its what gamers should do if they enjoy gaming. It's a win win. Being able to enjoy games like Nier, Gears, WOW and Legend of Zelda is where its at. I feel sorry for those who experience less.

So yeah, I took sides. I took the gaming side.
