Big surprise from nintendo, Wii will run with Opera browser, will be on 24/7. I'm not sure on the details, I'll edit this post as sift through all the info. Here are some things that where preseneted and I'll try to expand on them all as I get more info. * Nintendo Wii * Nintendo DS * Zelda Gameplay * Starfox DS (link to video and screenshots) * Diddy Kong Racing DS * ExciteTruck * Mario Galaxy * Mario Basketball * 100 plus 2006 Nintendo DS Games coming out * 16 Million DS's Sold * Red Steel * Metroid Prime 3: Corruption * Final Fantasy III * Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles 2 * Table Tennis * Trackmeet Meet game * Baseball game * 4th Quarter Wii * Dragonball Z * Sonic WindFire * Fire Emblem Wii * Tony Hawk Downhill Jam * Sengoku Action * Disaster Day * Cars * Spongebob * Phantom Hourglass * Rayman 4 * Madden 2007 * One Piece * Golf * SD Gundam * Project Hammer * Zelda controls * Rumble pack, Speaker in controller and Mic * Two different Zelda versions, Wii and GCN * Yoshi's Island 2 * Wario Ware Wii * Mario VS DK: March of the Minis * Wii uses Opera Browser * Faster loading times * WiiConnect24, system is always on...even when its off allowing downloads automatticly * Wii Sports * There will be approximetly 25 games available on day 1. Here is a link to the official Nintendo Wii page with the trailer that was shown at E3 with actual game footage. I don't know about you guys but looking at the games in action has me plenty excited. more news to come. Also, just specualtion but Nintendo has more to say tomorrow and may finally announce price and release date. Stay tuned! Edit: It seems as though the Wiiconnect24 feature will be more akin to how Animal Crossing is. You go to sleep wake up and there is new content. Developers may have created a new level or weapon that users can download. Also Animal Crossing wasn't showcased but it has been confirmed for Nintendo Wii. Edit: Nintendo has also released a shell for the controler Nintendo made no mention of the controller shell at today's media briefing, but hopefully we'll learn more when the E3 show floor opens tomorrow. -------------------- "Brotherhood asked for no friendship, only loyalty.

I don't think anything still gets me more psyched than a new nintendo console, no matter how wacky or wii-erd. Two different zeldas is kinda weird though... Will the GC one come out earlier than the Wii version? -------------------- Steam: MrCrushin PSN : MrCrushin XBL: Mr Crushin I'm not a playa I just crush a lot.

Nintendo wants to keep their promise that there would be another Zelda for the Gamecube. The amount of information coming out is mind boggling. I can't wait to see what other announcments we will see in the coming months. -------------------- "Brotherhood asked for no friendship, only loyalty.

I think I might go this direction when it comes out haha. -------------------- <center> "You Need The D? Then You Need Me!"

It will definetly be weird to get used to at first, but I think Wii-chuks might be a big evolution in VG control. -------------------- Steam: MrCrushin PSN : MrCrushin XBL: Mr Crushin I'm not a playa I just crush a lot.

May 10, 2006 - Nintendo just pulled a fast one on us. At an after-hours press briefing a mere minute ago, the company pulled another ace out of its sleeve: Super Smash Bros. Brawl -- the next installment in Nintendo's popular Super Smash Bros. series.

Shigeru Miyamoto himself has confirmed the following playable characters:

# Pit (Kid Icarus)
# Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)
# Zero Suit Samus (the blue "no-suit" Samus from Metroid: Zero Mission)
# Meta-Knight (Kirby)
# Wario (Wario)

Under the direction of series creator Masahiro Sakurai, Super Smash Bros. Brawl will feature two control modes: motion-controlled and classic, GameCube-style combat. That means players who prefer to play the game with the traditional control setup can do so using the GameCube controller they're already accustomed to while the new motion control adds a new dimension previously not available in fighting games.

The game also features a range of new nasty toys, such as the ability to unleash a puppy from Nintendogs that will run up to the screen, put its paws up and obscure the view of the action. Mario, Kirby, Pikachu and Link have been confirmed as returning characters.

Even better, the game will be fully online playable in addition to featuring a robust multiplayer mode.

The bad news is that Super Smash Bros. Brawl will no longer be a Wii launch title, but will instead be released in 2007.

Solid Fucking Snake... RIGHT ON!
