While there are several opics on this subject, I'd like to bring up my table of Nintendo series (updated for March) and their status on Wii and DS. As you can see, there is plenty of potential for E3 2008 resurrections.
Which of these would you like to see and which of these will be announced?

Ubuntu. Linux for human beings.
If you are interested in trying Ubuntu or Linux in general, PM me and I will answer your questions and help you install it if you wish.
