This E3 brought a number of high-profile releases which gamers will no doubt be eager to get their hands on this year and in 2016. Popular online retailer Amazon has listed the top ten most pre-ordered video games following last week’s gaming event in Los Angeles.

This year E3 wasn’t much good for Nintendo was it?
Oh boy if you haven’t watched it you’re in for a treat!
i watched and it was hilariously bad and mediocre.
just like your videos on YouTube, do yourself a favor and clean your basement, that mattress of yours is so filthy. But i am sure the word ‘clean’ is new for you.
Amazon lists the top pre-ordered games, none of them on Wii U
There are two lists. I’m assuming the first list is for games that were already announced prior to E3 and the boost in pre-ordering that they got from E3. The second list must be pre-orders from new game announcements, I guess.
I don’t pre-order games after E3. If I ever pre-order a game, I’ll do it no more than a month in advance of the game’s release.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is the only game on the fist list I’d buy. Where’s Hitman? Then again most of the industry outside of Nintendo is corporate sheep, not gamers. If you pay to play online or bought the new Batman game you’re one of them.
first*
“Most of the industry”? Where did you get that statistic, dick smear?
>>>Same, it’s the only thing that interested me in the entire E3 non Nintendo wise>>>
Your problem with the batman games is sad. They are one of the best video game series during the 21st century. Arkham asylum, arkham city, and arkham knight. I don’t see why you hate it.
They really arent that amazing. What sells them isnt the gameplay, It’s Batman.
No. It’s the gameplay. The games are awesome.
disagree the game play is awesome the only reason i have and xb1 side by side with my Wii u is because third parties games and specific batman if you say is not the game play is because you don’t play the game
Im on Pc and Wii U so rn the gameplay is trash because you drop frames ): Dont have a console to experience the game /: Hope they fix soon
Yeah, I read about it having major problems on PC. And it’s capped to 30 FPS. That’s just stupid.
It’s almost unplayable. I exceed the “reccomended requirements” and i still stutter HARD at some points. I’ve dropped to 20 fps… Unacceptable
Are you for real? That’s completely unacceptable! It’s a good thing I got the game for free. Otherwise, I’d ask for my money back. They need to fix it ASAP.
Dude atleast you have a 970 (: im not gonna refund it because i have faith for now.
I usually wait ’till an special or limited edition appears, so… no preorders from me, at least for the moment.
Personally, the only thing I’m remotely interested in is the new Deus Ex. I’ll probably sink a lot of hours in Fallout too, but I have a bad feeling about it.
The rest of the list is garbage as far as I’m concerned.
I’m interested in nearly every game on the list. Including AC Syndicate.
You’re a braver person than I.
That doesn’t mean I’m gonna buy them all though. Haha. Personally, the one I want the most is Halo 5. I haven’t played Halo in years and even then, it was only the first one. I need to get back into the action.
I can’t stomach Halo at all. Its influence has become so widespread by now that I don’t get the feeling of playing something new. It’s a shame, really. They’re fun shooters, from what I can tell.
It pains me everytime i see Uncharted, why cannot Naughty Dog develop fun platformers like they used to do? Why they think people want some interactive wannabe Indiana Jones movies?
Because people do want that. Shut the fuck up
I wonder how many people pre-ordering Star Wars Battlefront have done their research, and know that it’s a complete and utter butchering of the old Battlefront that we all knew and loved. Honestly, how dare they slap the name of Star Wars Battlefront on what is practically a Star Wars re-skin mod for Battlefield. I wouldn’t have a problem with it if it was called something like “Star Wars Frontlines” or something, but Battlefront? It ruins the integrity of one of the greatest franchises of all time.
Exactly!
There were no worthwhile titles from Nintendo available for pre-order which weren’t pre-ordered years ago. I pre-ordered X in 2013.
….and you can’t pre-order Fatal Frame for some reason.
In a world… Where Forza Motorsport 6 has more than two times the preorders of Fallout 4…
that’s percentage increase, not actual numbers. example: FM6 can be 1 preorders to 10, and that’s 1000%. FO4 can be 1000 to 4000, and that’s 400%. I don’t know what the actual numbers are but from what I’ve seen people are waaay more hyped about Fallout 4 than anything else.
Ah, I didn’t catch that at first xD
My God…this comment section is cancer.
“COUGH, COUGH!” It’s spelt Pre-order, no PE-order XD
Haha, good spot! Sorry! :D
Mmh… To be taken very lightly, as some of these games were already available for preordering while Forza got revealed at E3. It was overall a great E3 for all publishers but Nintendo.
But yes, kinda reflects how shitty and unimpressive Nintendo’s E3 was. A shame…
None of them are Nintendo games! Ha!
People still pre-order games? It seems pointless to me, and risky with all the high profile flops.
I always wait until the post-release beta testing has been done and the price drops, I have more than enough games to play without getting caught up in the “day 1” hype.
The first thing I did was pre-order the Fallout 4 Pip Boy Edition. Good thing I did because it’s not available anymore. Haha.
>>>Forza over Battlefront and Deus Ex, this is the world we are living in, pathetic cretin with no gaming taste whatsoever>>>
I’m pretty sure Deus Ex and Battlefront’s pre-orders will boost significantly when they’re closer to release.
>>>Doesn’t change the fact that many still pre-ordered that garbage over real games, despite Battlefront being an Electron product>>>
Forza is awesome though.
Its not a real Battlefront title. That is your reason. Plus, Forza is a very good title, and some gamers perfer racers over FPS games.
>>>What makes it not a real Battlefront?>>>
No Starfox Zero? BAH, bunch of noobs!
Is Star Fox up for pre-order?
lol everyone is shitting on the list of games. i kinda wish batman arkham knight was on the wii u.
” kinda wish batman arkham knight was on the wii u”.
sounds like you are shitting too
I prefer waiting to see consumer feedback before any purchase so I don’t preorder games. Usually games aren’t short in stock or hard to find.
Why do people preorder games? I can understand if there’s a preorder bonus. But if there’s not, why not just wait until it arrives in stores? It’s not like games are in limited supply like amiibos.
Well of course not. Everyone with a brain stopped fully supporting Nintendo after their E3 disaster.
There SHOULDN’T be any Nintendo games in the top Amazon preorders list.
LMAO.
Yup! They basically used E3 as marketing for MarioMaker which ,to me, MM seems like its not really going to be a big hit because the impressions/vibes it gives off. It just doesn’t seem like a normal/serious AAA game, it sorta falls into the Captain Toad area… Which is no wonder MM isn’t on the amazon lists.
This should be a wake up call to Nintendo that their E3 SUCKED. But, it’s Nintendo. They are too stupid to actually take stuff like this into account. And even when they do, they still fuck up down the road sometimes.
Maybe you were right when you said Nintendo was run by moneys considering how Iwata is always staring at bananas.
*Monkeys lol
Correction: dumb monkeys. Calling them simply monkeys would be an insult to primates.
