Reggie seemed to focus more on past/current success rather than new games. The conference was good, all around though.

WiiFit will end up being a Wii pack in when they do the infomercial on latenite and daytime television. This bundle will also be sold in all the "As Seen On TV" stores across the nation.

How much of that was actually news? Wii Fit seems to be the only real announcement in there and I'm not going to buy that anyway.

Is Wii Fit the new Miyamoto game?  A damn excercise game.  Hey all the games that are worth a damn this E3 are sequels and aside from Mario Kart (which everyone knew was coming eventually) none of them are new!  No we're not neglecting hardcore gamers.  Not at all.

When I want to excercise I get on my damn bike.  I play games when I DON'T want to excercise.  What's next?  Wii Work?  Wii School?  Wii Chores?  This is pretty much the E3 I expected from Nintendo.  They very blatantly don't give two sh!ts about the people that made them a success in the first place if they can get the mainstream money.  They've become EA.

The problem is I still want to get a Wii for the handful of games I want for it, but I don't want anything else revealed thus far.  At this rate I'll be lucky to find five games I really want but these will be five games I REALLY want.  Nintendo are f*cking evil geniuses.  They know exactly the bare minimum attention they have to give to their old fans to get a purchase.

Pac-Man Vs. is no longer the least interesting game to get the most focus at a Nintendo conference.

I didn't hear anything about SSB Brawl being online.  Should we assume that mean it isn't?  If it isn't I'm not that interested.  It's really just "more SSB" without it.  I'd probably buy it used years later when it's cheap.  The fact that they mentioned Mario Kart being online suggests that if SSB was as well they would have said so.

I thought it was a so-so show, but that's what I was expecting.

Wii Fit sounds interesting (couldn't see the video feed) and was a good conclusion...it has the potential to keep the system selling out for another year.

The brief Mario Kart announcement was nice.

Everything else was pretty much known or not that interesting.  I guess the Wii Zapper is cool....maybe there was a lot of silent game footage that I just didn't get to see, but I was hoping for more of that.

All that said, I think Nintnedo has rightfully stopped talking about games years in advance.  Focus on this year's games, tell us about Animal Crossing and whatever next year.
That's my opinion, not yours.

Dear Ian,

I want the WiiFit. Please understand that you're not the only person who considers himself a diehard Nintendo fan.

... of course, I also want a Wii Board Snowboarding game, and I want the game used for FPS titles so I can "duck" just by crouching.

Show your husband pictures of the NES Advantage, the Track & Field Pad, R.O.B. and the Zapper. That should put things in perspective... or it might make things worse.

O wow, didn't even think of that. You could potentially look out from a corner with the board, crouch, and lots of other good stuff. FPS evolution on the Wii!

Also, the Wii board can be used for de-facto break and gas pedals.

[carrying from Kairon's post, the Wii fitness board could be implemented as  ]

and drum pedals,
and a spinning sidestep dodge in a FPSlasher
and probably a method of controlling a marble-madness type puzzler
and this will make the next WarioWii title absolutely dazzling

Then things should be fine because you've already been inoculated against gross amounts of peripherals.

Did anyone else notice that WiiFit didn't seem to support more than one player? At least, they didn't show anything.

What's my excuse to get two boards going to be?
