So E3 isn't too long away. June 14th. Actually Nintendo's conference starts the next day. Rather then waiting to make a summary of Nintendo's conference to make this topic again, I thought I'd do it now.

That's really weird WF. Do you have some hidden agenda here?

Where would you get that idea? Just because that this morning Nintendo officially announced that for the first time ever they would host a live feed of their E3 conference themselves at 9 AM PST on June 15 at e3.nintendo.com?

What the-Dammit WF! Why do you never make topics without whoring out Nintendo in some way?

Hey keep it clean! I thought maybe this would double as a neat hype thread for E3 ya know? I know we're all looking forward to Nintendo announcing an American release of New Play Control: Pikmin 2!

Or I guess it could be an "Uh-Oh" thread because everyone hates the 40 minutes of Sales Talk followed by 10 minutes of Wii Music Plus followed by 30 seconds of a major under wraps secret game.

He's got a point, actually.

Yeah, can we just skip to the last thirty seconds of the Nintendo presentation where they show us the stuff that we want?

-Nintendo quickly showed off gameplay from Tingle's Battle Clash before packing up everything and leaving, never to be seen again until later in the fall.

I just want to put it out there that I had a dream last night about E3, and the only game announcement I remember is a Zelda spin-off game starring Ganondorf, wherein he competed against Chancellor Cole of all people (although I think he had a different name in my dream). That will be all.

Chancellor Cole?

Is there a list of games guaranteed to be shown at E3? And any clues or hints ahead of time about what Nintendo might be about?

When IS E3 anyway.

The Spirit Tracks villain. But yeah, there's really no idea of what's gonna go down at E3 from what I understand aside from the strong possibility of finally finding out what Zelda Wii is all about.

Someone needs to tell me why I should care about anything other than Marvel vs. Capcom 3

... I can't even comment on all of these. Just. Wow.

OH MY GOD ITS VIDEO GAMES!!! WHERE DID VIDEO GAMES COME FROM? HOLY GOD!!

LETS LOOK AT EVERY VIDEO GAME

But Im too excited and junk so Ill be brief.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: The new Zelda game created exclusively for Wii that relies on the MotionPlus. Very beautiful stylized colorful graphics. New items include a remote beetle that you control and a dang whip. Link Belmont. Also you can roll bombs like a bowling ball.

Mario Sports Mix: A new collection of Mario sports with basketball, volleyball, ice hockey, dodgeball, and possibly more.

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn: The third in the fantastic Golden Sun franchise for the regular DS.

Goldeneye 007: A remake of the N64 favorite. The new Bond actor replaces the old Bond actor.

Wii Party: A new mini-game collection. But it won't suck I promise.

Donkey Kong Country Returns: Retro Studios' new project, a new DK game with the classic DKC-style gameplay.

Kirby's Epic Yarn: 7 years in the making! Maybe? The style of that old Gamecube tease has been dropped for a much more very awesome graphic style. EVERYTHING IS MADE OF dang YARN. THIS IS SO PRETTY.

And then Nintendo showed off the dang 3DS holy crap. Gyro sensor, motion sensor, a "slide pad" (analog stick), another thing that changes the depth of how 3D things are. TWO cameras on the back so that pictures you take appear in 3D. Very sleek design. The top screen is widescreen. And the game that Nintendo showed off for it?

Kid Icarus: Uprising: A badass new action-packed Kid Icarus game from Project Sora, Masahiro Sakurai's new studio.

Nintendo also briefly mentioned Nintendogs + cats and several SEVERAL 3DS games from third parties.

Nintendo those sneaky bastards decided to not mention an assload of games that they didn't show off at the press conference. Including SEVERAL first party 3DS titles. Holy cow!

Here's what we missed.

PokePark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure: A new Pikachu-starring adventure for Wii.

FlingSmash: A MotionPlus-exclusive side-scrolling platformer.

Samurai Warriors 3: An entry in a semi-popular hack n slash franchise. This Wii-exclusive entry is notable including Nintendo's own Takamaru.

Pokemon Ranger: Guardians Signs: The third in the Pokemon Ranger franchise for DS.

Professor Layton and the Unwound Future: The third in the Layton series for the regular DS.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Miniland Mayhem: The fourth in the Mario vs DK game for the DS. Im a broken record Im sorry hold on.

And what did Nintendo NOT tell you their coming out with for 3DS?

Animal Crossing

Mario Kart

Paper Mario

Pilotwings Resort

StarFox 64 3D

Steel Diver

Ill get more specific when everything finishes damn downloading

Also apparently Ocarina of Time 3DS is happening.
