Looks like this could be the diamond in the rough that's overlooked by most in favor of higher profile stuff. Looks very promising and has good designs and sound.
The fact that you're not limited to stand at the center of the square, just make this game a lot more depth, because you can actually have total control of the movements of your characters without being punished by "square RNG stats" like XCOM
I wasn't sure of the artsyle, but the gameplay seems to be a new spin on the strategy genre. It looks really interesting. And coming from the people behind Advance Wars and Fire Emblem, makes this a very very promising title.
I wasn't too impressed by what I heard and saw screenshot wise the other day, but after seeing it in action, this game is beginning to grow on me. It looks quirky and reminiscent of Valkyria Chronicles, so I'm interested to see how it turns out.
Sites still put up screenshots!? Who knew? Seriously, I never really look at videos, since there's lots of spoilers and stuff. But this E3 I have. Not on the major franchises though. And because of that, I never go to sites. I thought nobody would post only screenshots anymore.
GreenBullOHWIR Heh, they were posted by Nintendo's Facebook page Wednesday night, actually. This game was revealed behind closed doors only to journalists on Wednesday, so there was no video footage available until sometime Thursday, I believe.
I'm super looking forward to this. First I was skeptical about the style, because usually I'm into Anime-like style, but this is somewhat fresh and now I'm totally hyped about this game. Really promising title!
Game looks awesome, but my biggest gripe is that the comic book cutscenes use 3D models as opposed to hand-drawn pictures. Makes it look a bit strange.
So many awesome games!! Imagine Kid Icarus and Luigi´s Mansion on the Wii U! I hope Sakurai starts working on a new Kid Icarus for Wii U after he finishes Smash Brothers! HYPE HYPE HYPE #NintendoWonE3 -2014
For me it looks much better than I thought it would be. It still looks a little generic for a new Big N IP, but I will definetly give it a shoot, it has a really neat mechanics so far and I like those characters ^^ It's better than a new Zelda remake or Metroid at least (ok, maybe Metroid would be fun as well, but it should be for the next E3)
I'm not sold on this one. A lot of elements are a bit too niche imo, be it the presentation, character designs, the whole steampunk aesthetic, or the particular implementation of the gameplay elements etc.
yeah i'm getting a lot of Valkyria Chronicles vibes from this game, gonna be interesting... still waiting on Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem Intelligent Systems/Atlus. I know you say the development is going steady, but at least some screenshots would be nice
Looks awesome, but this really shouldn't be a 1st party title. I mean, I'm happy that Nintendo is innovating and coming up with new ideas, but there's still an extreme lack of 3rd party IPs. However, you guys did an awesome job with Xenoblade Chronicles X and Bayonetta 1/2. So pumped for those games.
That makes no sense, though. Someone from within their first party subsidiaries had an idea for a game, so of course it's a first party game. What should they have done, given the idea to someone else outside of the company?
looking into it... it looks awesome! gonna get it! i hope the pvp in it is online cos none of my friends are gonna get this (mainly cos they never heard of it)
I dk. Sure it's new IP, but the art is pretty basic, the shading on everything is badly done, the voice acting is terrible, the special effects are very laughable and the textures are so very very ugly. When i saw the game at the start, i thought it was a game from 2000.
I love everything about this game

I can definitely see Jack Kirby's inspiration in the art design.

it's not actually a new spin on it, it works almost exactly like valkyria chronicles
beardfosh This is a good thing. Valkyria Chronicles is pretty much dead. (Especially in the west).
beardfosh Not really, since since they're actually including shooter elements instead of just giving the illusion they added shooter elements
I am a huge fan of the steam punk style. Needless to say im stoked for this. Especially from Intelligent Systems
This game look like a portable XCom:Enemy Unknown layered with SteamPunk gadgets and a Comic Book Art style...and that is totally awesome!
A lot of people seem to prefer the anime art style but i myself have fallen in love with this one simply because it reminds me so much of bruce timm.
That was one of the influences in the artstyle. It was also inspired by Jack Kirby work.
I also love that the art is all pixel art.

This game looks really cool! I would have loved another 3DS Fire Emblem but Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. looks very promising.
So will this game get a sequel called Code Name: V.A.L.V.E.? :P
no its code G.A.B.E.N
If that happens then there will never be a third game lol
Codename S.T.E.A.M. 2 : Revenge of the Hats and Codename S.T.E.A.M. 2 Episode 2: The search for S.T.E.A.M. 3.
More like, Code Name: XCOM 3D...
It's visuals reminds me of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure which is a good thing :)
Get it
John Henry
and he has a hammer
...My Steampunk fiction is never going to be made now.
I'm super looking forward to this. First I was skeptical about the style, because usually I'm into Anime-like style, but this is somewhat fresh and now I'm totally hyped about this game. Really promising title!
I think this game looks amazing so far!
This game is really growing on me. I'll probably pick it up when it ships.
Game looks awesome, but my biggest gripe is that the comic book cutscenes use 3D models as opposed to hand-drawn pictures. Makes it look a bit strange.
This game looks amazing!!! Day one buy for sure!!
At first I thought that it was going to be a weird game, but it looks pretty cool and I'm really looking forward to this:)
This game looks so cool. Nintendo you make me so happy :)
Reminds me of Valkyria Chronicles. I'm gonna love this then, especially since we'll never get VC3 over here.
Its valkyria chronicles style of play so I'll probably get this. I loved how valkyria chronicles played.
Nintendo fire Emblem on the 3DS rocked my world.
This looks amazingly fun! :D
The Murica is strong with this one...
Steampunk XCOM, I'm totally buying this.
So many awesome games!!
Imagine Kid Icarus and Luigi´s Mansion on the Wii U! I hope Sakurai starts working on a new Kid Icarus for Wii U after he finishes Smash Brothers! HYPE HYPE HYPE #NintendoWonE3 -2014
Really only one major flaw I see, always include an option to save anywhere when you're making an RPG, even a quicksave will do.
It's like a steampunk Valkyria Chronicles with some Xcom. I like what I see.
i keep seeing such movement attack and super move inefficiency, it hurts my eyes.
Maybe they would change those in-game cinematics for actually comicbook illustration
Wooow look so good, the steam punk style is very nice :3
really looks great
Seems very Valkyria Chronicles esque, which is awesome.
And the chat for this game was the worst of them all.
For me it looks much better than I thought it would be. It still looks a little generic for a new Big N IP, but I will definetly give it a shoot, it has a really neat mechanics so far and I like those characters ^^
It's better than a new Zelda remake or Metroid at least (ok, maybe Metroid would be fun as well, but it should be for the next E3)
Retro Studios have finished DKCTF. ;D
This reminds me a lot of Valkyria Chronicles
OMG!!!!!!! I DIDNT SEE THE SPECIAL ATTACK MECHANIC!!!!! ITS SO AWESOME!!!! BUYING IT BUYING IT BUYING IT!!!! (fan girl much?)
Intelligent Systems? Does that mean we'll have a good Paper Mario game for Wii U?
I hope Intelligent still makes a Paper Mario for the Wii U.
I'm not sold on this one. A lot of elements are a bit too niche imo, be it the presentation, character designs, the whole steampunk aesthetic, or the particular implementation of the gameplay elements etc.
Oh...Cool!
Is it like Batallion Wars but turn-based?
That's what it looks like I think...
This seems interesting
I WANT IT!!!!
Add him to smash
13:15 sounds like smash bros music.
yeah i'm getting a lot of Valkyria Chronicles vibes from this game, gonna be interesting... still waiting on Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem Intelligent Systems/Atlus. I know you say the development is going steady, but at least some screenshots would be nice
PERSONA 5 PERSONA 5...
They have rehashed Valkyria Chronicles :/
Dat music.
Nintendoooooo
I do not like this art style one bit.
Same here. It looks ugly.
yeah
The gameplay looks fine. The graphic style I still am not a fan of.
Looks awesome, but this really shouldn't be a 1st party title. I mean, I'm happy that Nintendo is innovating and coming up with new ideas, but there's still an extreme lack of 3rd party IPs.

Xenoblade Chronicles X is first party.
Nanofuture87 Oh, didn't know that.
KingLoop13 Yep. Nintendo acquired Monolith Soft a while ago.
That makes no sense, though. Someone from within their first party subsidiaries had an idea for a game, so of course it's a first party game. What should they have done, given the idea to someone else outside of the company?
KoujiTamino No, like I said, I'm glad they came up with new ideas, but there should be more 3rd party titles like this. Badly worded I guess.
I wish they would've gone with a Japanese anime style like Fire Emblem instead of this goofy looking western comic style...
I'm very dissapointed with this game. Everyone wanted Majoras Mask 3D or Metroid 2D.
And some wanted a NEW game
I'd rather have Majora's Mask HD thank you very much.
Who are you to speak for everyone?
The heck...? We can't all live in the past forever. Nintendo needs new IPs, badly. This is one of them. It's a breath of fresh air!
If by "everyone" you mean "I" then sure.
Kinda reminds me territory war
your profile pic, it scares me :(
LOL :D
E.T. Go home on the rocket.
Takako-san a qt
man i wish i could translate japanese
looks like shallow gameplay
why are there american flags in LONDON
Probably an embassy of some sort. Like they said, the story involves Abraham Lincoln, so maybe that's where he's staying.
xcom enemy unknown?
The Bureau probably is a better comparison, if that game was turn based instead.
what the heck is this? i dont understand what its about or what you do in it... anyone help me out?
looking into it... it looks awesome! gonna get it! i hope the pvp in it is online cos none of my friends are gonna get this (mainly cos they never heard of it)
