Thread: Pokemon X/Y E3 Showcase

while it really has not been done before other then simply mentioned. i think there is a very good chance that this year could be different.


reasons why i think they will showcase them

world wide release
massive upgrade
first real 3d pokemon game

I believe it's a possibility, but not guaranteed. Pokemon has had little presence at E3 in the past since Nintendo seems to have gone through non-traditional means to announce features of the games (Coro Coro, Pokemon Smash, etc.), but this time around, it seems like they're leaning more towards announcing things in the same way they do with other games, (Nintendo Direct, online), so E3 certainly seems to be a possibility, also I do agree that the worldwide release will play into it. The timing of the release also makes E3 the perfect place to show the games off. So definitely more likely than in the past.

Definitely going to happen. As you said the worldwide release plays a major factor, and E3 info about a lot of games always ends up in Japanese Game publications after the event, so I can't see why the CoroCoro info can't be mostly what was covered at E3. Would also allow demos for the press, giving more marketing for a game that's already going to sell insanely.

Probably yes, as the E3 would work better than just CoroCoro magazines, and this would improve presence and image of Pokémon in the global markets. I'd agree with it.

They mentioned BW2 and Dream Radar at the last E3, so why not?

yes but im talking full on showcase

I can definitely see it happening due to the fact like it has already been mentioned that the games are coming out worldwide. So yeah I have high hopes for E3 this year.

let's just hope that we can go to E3 and see X&Y.

E3 is not open to the general public, only professionals from the electronic entertainment industry, professional journalists and invited people are allowed to attend.

I really hope they decide to show it at E3. I want the Pokemon franchise to get out there and show itself on large events together with major Nintendo franchises like Mario and The Legend of Zelda instead of only relying on Corocoro, Smash etc. As they showed off XY on Nintendo Direct, I get the feeling of E3 being the next goal, and as XY is seeing a worldwide release in October, it would be the perfect timing to show it off there.

It would be really good for Pokemon for it to get a showcase at E3, so I really hope X and Y are among the shown games there. It could get a lot of people interested in the game,perhaps people that are not familiar with Pokemon. Plus they could show gameplay and things like that which would be awesome to see.

Pokemon is never at E3. The only time was when they put out the news of Pokedex 3D. Doesn't count

If its the first time, then it had never been done before.

Let me say this in a way you'd understand. It won't happen. Ever. Period end of story
