AND THE WINNER IS ... !!!

So it's the end of E3 week and it's time to look back at those predictions cast by the lame JB and awesome Dan CC!

Wii Party

Dan CC - "less than 10 mins" coverage / Jonny - "10 - 20 mins" coverage

Winner - Dan CC! (approx 5 mins)

Wii Vitality

Dan CC - "15-30 mins" coverage / Jonny - "less than 15 mins" coverage

Winner - NO-ONE! (it didn't appear - but it still exists! ;) )

Zelda Wii

Dan CC - "playable press demo" / Jonny - "playable showfloor demo"

Winner - Jonny!

3DS Name

Dan CC & Jonny - "still 3DS name"

Winner - Dan CC & Jonny! (aww)

3DS

Dan CC - "shown + playable + on showfloor" / Jonny - "shown + playable + behind closed doors"

Winner - Dan CC!

Epic Mickey

Dan CC - "appears and changed in appearance" / Jonny - "appears and not changed in appearance"

Winner - Dan CC! (yummy yummy)

Goldeneye

I did change my prediction (one day after my original and well before E3 started) to the correct one, but Jonny is doing so badly I think I'll give him a break here! ^_^

Dan CC - "rumour is true / doesn't appear" / Jonny - "rumour is false / doesn't appear"

Winner - NO-ONE! (both true AND appeared)

Xenoblade & Last Story

Dan CC & Jonny - "hoped for the very best"

Nintendo - FUCK YOU DAN CC & JONNY! (Here's hoping for TGS...)

Wii HD (alternate title: Jonny's personal crusade against Nintendo)

Dan CC - "Jonny is betrayed (No Wii HD!) / Jonny - "Jonny is vindicated (Wii HD!)

Winner - Nintendo & Dan CC

Retro Studios project

Dan CC - "not revealed" / Jonny - "revealed"

Winner - Jonny!

Iwata

Dan CC & Jonny - "comes out"

Winner - Dan CC & Jonny (Iwata is gay!)

Shigsy

Dan CC - "appears" / Jonny - "appears dressed as Nintendo character"

Winner - Dan CC! (he appeared with wiimote & nunchuck which for a fleeting moment were superimposed with sword and shield on screen - was not a character appearance like this)

Super Scribblenauts

I'm not really sure how to call this one, unless we look at impressions? Not that it matters though, as you'll see below! ;)

Mario DS 2

Dan CC - "not announced" / Jonny - "announced"

Winner - Dan CC! (oddly enough not even for 3DS!)

Pikmin vs Kirby

Dan CC - "Kirby will appear" / Jonny - "Pikmin will appear"

Winner - Dan CC!

Starfox vs Kid Icarus

Dan CC & Jonny - "Starfox"

Winner - Dan CC & Jonny! (well it might not have been announced on-stage as Kid Icarus was, but it was part of the E3 line-up announced - we should have voted in opposition for this as it would have been the sweetest double victory of the lot if we had.)

SO THE RESULTS

DAN CC - AN ALL-MIGHTY 10 POINTS!
JONNY - a measly 5 points!

DAN CC IS THIS YEAR'S E3 WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!
