    Well, since they were presenting the new POKéMON games there, I guess I wouldn't mind running for my life. xD? Anyways, I can't wait to see the trailers to POKéMON Mysterious Dungeon and Diamond/ Pearl.

    Seems Nintendo is so proud of the stampede that they posted it on their own site! XD

    Yeah, hi Tidus Andronicus. I can see you're obviously very excited about how popular the Wii is at E3, but there really is no need to make a new thread which pretty much says the same thing as your old one.

    Honestly, I'm not psyched about the Wii at all. With out third-party developers, Nintendo doesn't interest me.

    At all.

    Nintendo likes making games, not whoring their console up to the multimedia pimp, so to speak. I like that.

    Last year? Last year's E3 was dominated by the announcement of the next-gen consoles. I clearly remember being interested in the PS3 and 360, not the Revolution. In fact, had it even been announced then? I can't even remember.

    The Wii, like every Nintendo console since I can remember, has a handful of very awesome games, but never half so many as their rivals have. I could name 20 awesome PS2 games, probably the same number for the X-Box, and not more than three or four for the GC. And Resident Evil 4 is now on the PS2, soo... yeah.

    Halo 3, MGS4, Warhawk, Burning Crusade, and the news about GTA IV were where the cool was at. SSBB is pretty much all the Wii has, hardly worth it.

    And of course, pretty much everything, even the Master Chief, was pwnd by Spore. That's the game of the year, right there.

    Nintendo has some nice games, but Sony has always provided more that I personally enjoy. Since there's only room in my wallet for one console, the PS3 is guaranteed my money. Should I find buried treasure in my backyard, I will surely purchase a Wii as well.

    sigh, you're very wrong
    my list of GC games

    1) Tales of Symphonia
    2) Fire Emblem Path of Radiance
    3) Super Smash Bros Melee
    4) Time Splitters Future Perfect
    5) Metroid Prime 2
    6) Metroid Prime
    7) Zelda Wind Waker
    8) X-Men Legends
    9) Mario Kart Double Dash
    10) Soul Calibur 2
    11) F-Zero GX
    12) Skies of Arcadia Legends
    13) Super Mario Strikers
    14) Megaman X Collection
    15) Megaman X Command Mission
    16) Star Fox Assault
    17) Phantasy Star Online Episode 1+2
    18) Star Fox Adventure
    19) Evolution Worlds
    20) Super Mario Sunshine
    21) Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
    22) Mario Golf
    23) Super Monkey Ball 2
    24) Megaman Network Transmission
    25) Time Splitters 2
    26) Gauntlet Dark Legacy
    27) Custom Robo
    28) Zelda Ocarina of Time + Master Quest
    29) 1080 Avalanche
    30) Sonic Adventure 2
    31) Sonic Heroes
    32) Mystic Heroes
    33) Bomberman Generation
    34) Future Tactics
    35) X-Men Legends 2

    cut out X-Men legends from the top 13, and you have at least 12 of the best games on ANY system, right there.

    Plus the Wii has plenty of good games. Metroid Prime 3, SSBB as you said, Mario Galaxy looks awesome, Zelda Twilight Princess, Red Steel, Fire Emblem Wii, Dragon Quest: "LONG ARSE TITLE" and some others too

    While I do like the Wii, I do think it's notable that we don't know what the price is yet. It's undoubtedly going to be cheaper than the PS3, of course, but we might only be able to afford 2 Wii's for the price of 1 PS3 instead of 3 for the price of 1 PS3. o.o

    true, cause it'll be somewhere from 200-300 most likely

    Well you'll be happy to know that Nintendo has a lot more 3rd party support now than they have had in a LONG time! ^_~

    Right on! Nintendo is here to make games! (and Reggie is here to kick arse and take names! XD sorry)
    Seriously, at least Nintendo is making a console strictly focused on gaming! Where as Sony and Microsoft want to take over your entertainment system and your computer with their consoles. They're putting a lot of power in their machines tword multimedia, and making the consumer pay for it, even if they don't want it.


    Anyway, yah Kentarou, Nintendo said it would definantly be below $299... but knowing that Nintendo always releases their consoles at $200, at least we have hope... but heck even if its $250 I'd say thats a great deal. ^_^;

    Well look at the big picture. It's plain Microsoft and Sony really haven't had any fresh ideas, with the exception of making graphics for HDTV's. I have to tip my hat to Nintendo. I hated the name Wii at first but I'm getting used to it, it's not that bad once you get accustomed to it.
