You can add this to the OP:

Here's what we got:

Kirby Wii game by Hal, trailer was shown(Looks like the old gc verison)
Just Dance And Goldeneye are being released in Japan by Nintendo
Pandora's tower is coming out this year
-They have many other unannouced wii games in development

3DS

May the eShop(3DIZED old games) and browser opens, plus DSI transfers.


Iwata: The reason they are only releasing dogs at launch, is because the software that is equivalant to wii sports for the wii is pre-bundled into the 3ds. Also they wanted attention for 3rd parties. 

Because of this, they have games that were completed even before dogs yet will be released afterwards

-They've got many software that can be sold this year, but haven't been announced.

Sales
- Last story and 3ds Pre-orders are both good.

Question: Western third party support for 3ds is weak, isn't it?

Answer: The importance(ratio) of hand-helds is weak overseas which makes it difficult to devote resources towards handheld only games. I believe the important of hand-helds in the west will increase, will that be enough to move western developers? it will become clear By looking at western publishers developments towards NGP and other factors.

Could you show me a video link to this old kirby prototype or whatever?

Finnaly Just Dance is going to be released in Japan, but guess what, Nintendo had to do it. I expect nothing but a sucess from it there as well. I don't know about GoldenEye, it might reach 100k LTD.
