Last week we lamented the lack of NX showing at E3 this year. But now we take a look back to four years ago when the Wii U was first shown at E3, and we just felt... "meh" about it. Is Nintendo doing everyone a favor by holding back this time? Also like four yeears ago, we're expecting announcements from both Sony and Microsoft.

Did Nintendo try to steal the show, only to stumble? Is the Wii U just an expansion for the Wii, with only enough extra horsepower to run the GamePad screen? Did Sony and Microsoft play it too close to the vest, or can we expect something greater from them in 2013?

Sean and Vinnk talk about the ups and downs (sometimes it feels like mostly downs) of E3, Vinnk's game of the show Project P-100, and all of the reasons we tell ourselves that E3 wasn't that great, even thought we just really wanted to be there in person.

Ah man, look at this fantastic early Project P-100 direct footage. Those early Wonderful One designs, those weird Wonder masks, Blue stealing Red's QTE morphing pose :3

The big takeaway from Nintendo’s Wii U showcase in London last week was this: in a world where drab, colourless shooters and Western franchises dominate on Sony and Microsoft platforms, the dazzling display of colours and Japanese quirkiness is a breath of fresh air. No game demonstrated this better than Project P-100, Platinum Games’ madcap action brawler that combines Power Rangers with Pikmin and Ultraman.

OOC: Hmm...Am I the only one who can see this happening in Sugar Rush? Just, everyone teaming up, and turning into giant weapons. No? Just me? I'm not surprised. My ideas seem to good for some people.

Oh, and finally, for those who didn't catch it but were interested: Platinum Games' hybrid of Pikmin and superheroes, formerly titled "Project P-100", now has a new name: "The Wonderful 101"
