Welp, it's that time of year again (Or at least, a month before it), E3 fast approaches, and we'll soon be showered with tons of game info and news, hopefully some good news rather than bad news
As for the past 2-4 years, I've taken it upon myself to make a thread to quarantine the hype so it doesn't derail other threads (Lookin' at you, Gaming General Discussion)

This year, like last, E3 starts a bit earlier than usual, with press conferences that have the lion's share of info coming out before E3 actually starts (Which is, for the first time in many years, open to the public!)

Here's the schedule for conferences, keep in mind, we're still getting times for others, so this may be updated
(Keep in mind, all times are presumably Pacific Standard Time, since that's where E3 is held)

EA is once more eschewing going to E3 in favor of "EA Play" which is their own little E3, this is the first conference, so we'll at least get all those Sports out of the Way
It have a Press Conference, which will start on June 10 at 12:00pm (3:00 PM EST)

Microsoft has decided to move their conference up a day early, in order to "Be the first E3 Conference", and to move itself away from Sony's usually much better conferences, expect Project Scorpio
It will start on June 11 at 2:00pm PST (5:00 PM EST)

Bethesda, once more, has their own conference, hopefully we'll get DOOM 2 or Wolfenstein 2
It will start on June 11 at 7:00pm PST (10:00 PM EST)

After that is the PC Gaming Show, which is mostly PC Exclusive games, in the past they haven't been too hot, and Blizzard isn't gonna be there, so don't get your hopes up
It will start on June 12 at 10:00am PST (1:00 PM EST)

Ubisoft once more has their own conference, hopefully we'll get a new Asscreed or Far Cry game there, or maybe some more For Honor DLC
It will start on June 12th at 1:00 PM PST (4:00 PM EST)

Then comes the Sony press conference, which always has a ton of giant announcements and has consistently been the winner of E3 every year, keep your eyes open for really cool shit
It will start on June 12 at 6:00pm PST (9:00 PM EST)

Lastly, of course, Nintendo doesn't have a traditional E3 Conference, it will instead have a "Nintendo Spotlight" and showcase many new games, they also have an ARMS and Splatoon Tournament planned
It will start on June 13 at 9:00am PST ( 12:00 PM EST)

That's all the conferences currently planned, only one is missing, which is Squeenix, and other companies may step up and get their own conference)

So, let the traditional E3 Hype thread begin, talk about games you want to see, games you don't wanna see, what you think each conference will have, and your faint fever dreams that may never come true!

The very definition of getting ahead of ourselves
 
Things im looking forward to:

A bunch of Switch title reveals Ninteno has been priming up for half a year
A CUPHEAD RELEASE DATE
inevitable reaction gif material
A Smash port reveal (Please?)
More info on what microsoft and Sony is gonna do to try to catch up to the switch
Bayonetta 3
Hopefully something involving monsters in pockets
 
Nintendo's premier space star is gonna be there

By which I mean, a new Kirby game
 
I'm just wondering if Ubisoft will get a conference this year, chances are, yeah.
Same with Squeenix, I just want some Asscreed Osiris news, dang it.

But yes I agree with Ruin some news on that Kirby Game would be most welcome
 
Hoping we finally get to see some 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim.
Bayonetta 3 would be nice, as would near anything from Platinum.
FROM announcing anything to do with robots, ninjas or Lovecraftian nightmares would be very welcome.
Hopefully we'll get to see some Ace Combat 7 gameplay and finally get a release date.
I hope Mikami is doing something interesting and has anything to share.
Also anything to make me care about the Switch would be greatly appreciated, SMT HD and Suda's new game are some ways off.

There is a lot more stuff that has already been announced or companies I'd like to see announce things but this is a more off the top of my head list as well as keeping expectations realistic.

Edit: Yeah, Aegis Rim isn't realistic since that's more of a TGS thing, but I can dream damnit.

cuphead will not be announced, well see 5 mins of new footage and that's it.
 
I hope that we see some Injustice 2 DLC.

And that we get some Dragon Age 4 footage. I wanna see if EA can redeem themselves after the crap heap that was Andromeda.
 
Ok, so Ubisoft definitely has a conference, we just don't have a confirmed time yet.
We also have no idea if Square Enix has a conference this year either, but given that it's Kingdom Heart's 15th Anniversary this year, they HAVE to have something to show
Right?
Right?!
... Right?
No they won't.

Absolver was the karate souls-like, right
That should be interesting
 
Hopes and Dreams 2017:
-More info on the Spiderman game from last year
-Release date for Quake Champions
-Full roster for Marvel vs Capcom Infinite
-No announcement for any next gen console, it is too soon
 
pikmin 4

not that 2D bullshit

real HD Pikmin 4 on Switch
 
We actually are very likely to get that new Kirby game revealed at the Nintendo event on the 13th.
Hope it's got ONLINE Multiplayer, ain't got friends to play with.
 
okay but for real
- stuff we already know is gonna be there
- kirby, with or without gun
- pikmins
- more joycons colors, i'd physically kill a man for purple joycons (or one purple and one yellow please god let me have this)
- that fucking SMT bullshit so i can be disappointed in it
- NMH3 either here or at TGS
- some dank indies
- metroid, starring john metroid, space marinetroid
- yoshiaki koizumi's beautiful fucking face
- Switch Puppy becomes an official mascot
- confirmation that xenoblade chronicles 2 will be dubbed using british voice actors

that's all off the top of my head
 
As long as I get a game where I can go back to Shibuya I'll be happy.
 
do it

i'm standing right here

Full roster for Marvel vs Capcom Infinit
No way in hell, they're going to milk the hype train they think they have as long as possible. (Now that I said that, look forward to the full roster being revealed)

that fucking SMT bullshit
Deep Journey or the Switch one? Switch one is barely in production, I'd be surprised if they had anything to even say about it.
Switch Puppy becomes an official mascot
He'll be in the Smash Bros port/new game, same logic as ROB. He needs the red and blue color scheme though so he can be Gill. (I'm only mostly joking)
