Okay so aside from their jokes Nintendo's conference sucked as well and just made me wish they had a real show and E3 as a whole has left me bitterly disappointed. Again.
However, on Nintendo's side there was Zelda. That could have won it for me, but then some genius decided it wasn't worth it to show gameplay footage (or anything more than a still that turns into a 30 second clip). What Aonuma said though sounds good, and I think it's promising. I'm thrilled Epona is back, and they seem to have heard my wish of having the ability to aimlessly and endlessly run around Hyrule Field on horseback. Also, the look of the game to me right now seems quite impressive. Huge draw distances and a lot of detail and effects. The style seems to be a perfect Zelda blend of previous styles; there's a bit of everything in there. Don't know what to think of Link's appearance and his strange lighting yet, but we've only seen half a second of him so far.
I strongly hope, we're going to see more of the game this week.

Well, I thought their conference was pretty good, but that's just me =)
But I have to agree that we saw way too little of the new Zelda game! I also wanted gameplay footage, even though what we saw was in-engine it wasn't gameplay. It really sounds like this will be an exciting new entry in the Zelda franchise! I love how they're going back to their roots with open world exploration!
