The biggest nerd convention of the year was this past weekend as NY Comic Con came to the Javits Center in Manhattan. Something about dressing up as your favorite fictional character and getting to meet some of the great minds behind video games and TV shows made it feel like Christmas came early to New York. The big drawing attractions this year, besides the Walking Dead panel was the section Nintendo had set up.
While I went on the same day that the most anticipated game of the year was released (Pokemon X & Y), they had huge promotions for the games on the previous days here; they let people actually preview and PLAY through it. This captured the day for me more than anything else. There was also the new Legend of Zelda, new Super Smash Bros, and the new Super Mario games, but Pokemon by far stole the show.
