Nintendo World Report's staff offers up their expectations and hopes for this year's E3.

Nintendo will announce Animal Crossing for Wii, and its online features will be essentially the same as in the DS game. Flush your MMO dreams down the toilet.

In the spirit of Mega Man 9, Nintendo will announce a huge franchise game for WiiWare, perhaps Mario or Zelda.

Nintendo will announce a Wii storage solution to shut up their critics. If it requires any new hardware, it will be sold only online to avoid confusing new customers.

Ubisoft will debut Red Steel 2, and it will look surprisingly good. It still won't have blood, though.

We'll hear something about Factor 5's Wii game, but it's not Kid Icarus or Pilotwings.

Rock Band 2 for Wii will add few features, but still won't have DLC, and will only piss off people who just bought the first one.

Square Enix will announce a new RPG for Wii or show an updated Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers.

Fatal Frame will be the Wii Game of the Show. The overall Game of the Show will be Resident Evil 5, which will make Nintendo fanboys cry tears of rage.
