Default Famitsu pre-E3 developer survey

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/703/703514p1.html

Quote:
Famitsu polled gamers and software makers about their interest at E3. Both parties were most interested in Nintendo's new hardware. 47.4% of software makers and 45.3% of gamers expressed interest in Revolution. This topped PlayStation 3, which got 36.8% of the developer vote and 44.8% of the gamer vote. The remaining 15.8% of developers didn't respond to the question. For users, 4.4% selected Xbox 360 with 5.5% selecting "other hardware." The magazine did not reveal the number of participants in the survey.
Quote:
Developers were also asked to reveal how many secret titles they have planned to unveil at the show. Of the 19 companies polled, 12 revealed that they have undisclosed titles to show, with two listing no secrets for the show and 5 giving no response. Of those with secret titles to show, 5 companies stated that at least one of the secret titles is for Revolution. PS3 and PSP were each listed by 2 companies, with GameCube, PS2 and DS getting one company each. Five companies had secret titles whose hardware they would not confirm with the magazine.
These surveys are never particularly insightful, particularly with a small sample size, but I thought the article was more interesting for the list of games that publishers revealed to Famitsu that would be shown at E3. The names are similar to those on next-gen's list from Famitsu, but IGN report some more, including Game V from Ubisoft, and Koei's Bladestorm.

Fixed. Though that's grammatically incorrect, and should instead read

Tolerance for internet moronism is exhausted. Anyone talking about people's attitudes in the Console fora, rather than games and technology, will feel my wrath. Read the FAQ to remind yourself how to behave and avoid unsightly incidents.

I think for better or for worse, everyone is interested to see what happens with Wii at E3. Left field ideas coupled with Nintendo's first party pulling power are a dangerous combination.
