    Honestly, the press conference seemed kinda lacking. Yeah, Animal Crossing is cool and all, but it's obivous that they're playing the casual angle now.

    And Guitar Hero: On Tour Decades? Ugh. Way to kill any momentum(if any) the just-released game has.

    Though, GTA and Spore sound to be promising.

    I never thought I'd say this but, Sony E3 2006 > Nintendo E3 2008

    What a shame...

    Dear Lord, that was a horrendous conference. I've never felt better about selling my Wii than I do right now.

    Where's the Extra Storage?
    Where's Kid Icarus?
    Where's Kirby Wii?
    Where's the new Zelda?
    Where's the new DS redesign?
    Where's the 60 minutes I lost forever watching this crap?

    Dear Cammie, please update your resume.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, the Nintendo you once knew and loved has left the building.

    If gaming really is headed in this direction, and everyone assimilates eventually, EVERYONE will be a casual gamer. And that makes me sad.

    I believe everyone seems to be over reacting a little bit. Sure there were no stellar announcements but isn't it better than hearing nothing at all? It's not like they are going to stop making good games.

    Wii Sports Resort will be the game of the decade.

    TGS is coming...(and that other show that tends to be Nintendo exclusive, but i'm forgetting its name at the moment). You know that Nintendo never drops teh big bombs at E3. Japanese companies stay loyal to their own shows.

    I predict a soft Sony E3 as well for the same reasons.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Did you guys not watch last year's conference? It was pretty much the same thing. As long as USA Today and ABC News are at the show, they're not going to cater to you. They have other venues for that. E3 will be for the casuals. Games like Wario Land and Kid Icarus will be revealed on web sites and in magazines.

    Hopefully TGS will have something positive to show.

    No Punch-Out, no Factor 5 project, no Retro product, no real annoucements for WiiWare or Virtual Console, no "Slim" DS redesign.

    Further proof that Nintendo hates you, your family, and that heavy feeling in your wallet.

    I think some of the games sound interesting. Animal Crossing, Wii Sports Resort, and Wii Music will be a lot of fun. Plus, there are some great games coming out this year that we already know about, like Guitar Hero: World Tour, de Blob, Samba de Amigo Wii, FaceBreaker K.O. Party, etc. We will have plenty of fun Wii games to play during the next six months.

    I'm curious to see if Nintendo announces any other special MotionPlus games though. Surely there are more in development.

    Looks like a bundle with Animal Crossing.
    Great, now there will be racist trash talk and death threats in online Wii games, too?

    Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'm really looking forward to Wii Animal Crossing. I had a blast with the Gamecube version.
    3,582 games and counting! Pics of tons of stuff!

    This is amazing. There's more drama here than a thread on new VC games.

    The Wii is a great homebrew console, it's really easy to "mod" so you can use your Wiis for that!
