This week we're posting daily updates rounding up the news from E3. Previously: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
With Shenmue 3 and The Last Guardian now back on the scene (although the latter totally unchanged since we last saw it and the former not without some concerns) we've been wondering what unicorns the industry has left. Thankfully, Ubisoft has stepped up, confirming that Michel Ancel is not working on Beyond Good and Evil 2, probably thus ensuring the game's "impossible dream" status for at least another year.
With all the conferences now behind us, opinion is divided on who won but the broad consensus is that Nintendo lost. Martin argued that there's more to cherish than fans are saying (Nintendo put out an infographic on the subject, too) but while Miyamoto says that Zelda will still come to Wii U, we learned that the next proper Metroid is only going to be on NX. Meanwhile, Nintendo has explained Samus' absence from the new Federation Force: having four of her in the game "would be odd". Seems legit! The new Mario Tennis is good though.
