OK so I can agree on some level about the conference and being slightly dissappointed, but why should we be?
It seems everyone is crying cause there were no hardcore announcments.
Well stop crying cause they are coming, its just Nintendo didn't hoodwink us with a video. Hell Nintendo could of shown SMG2, ZeldaWii2, ZeldaDS2 and Pikmin video and Nintendo would of won E3. Its a fine line and Im not sure how GOW3 trailer and a FF13 (the xbox version does not even exist yet, it was the sony trailer) multi platform announcement via a video we have already seen wins you the show. Neither of those games will have more of an impact on gaming then WiiMotionPlus.
IGN article that provides plausible evidence of hardcore Nintendo games coming

I came up with this thread when I read this post by
dib8rman:
" Am I the only one quite happy with Nintendos showing?
I mean I've always hated Animal Crossing, but 3rd party efforts seem to be kicking ass.
1:1 controller means more core games I guess and so does the voice chat thing.
Geez - if they announce some game first party that catches my Eye then Nintendo would be freakn amazing, for now I'm hoping the voice chat is bc. "
We as Nintendo fans, the hardcore ones that stuck with Nintendo through the GC days have nothing to worry about, we have finally got Online play and now in game voice chatting, and its clearly better then the competitions and allows conference like game chatting.
We have Motionplus that just opens up not 1 new door, but thousands of new possibilities in player to onscreen actions.
Nintedo is on top, the DS is on top, the Wii is on top, the Wii is now the one true next generation console(if it ever wasn't) and the hardcore games will come. As a game developer myself Im more excited to make Wii hardcore games then on any other console.
So please stop crying Nintendo is in the best position it has ever been in, period :)
Nintendo = Innovation = Wii
