^i know, look im trying to defend Punch Out. Why do i have to do that? Ratings have dropped a bit but its been reviewed amazingly well considering expectations.

Why would you need to defend Punch-Out!! in the first place? It's a great game that has seen solid reviews, that will hopefully sell as well as it deserves to.

Of course I would be disappointed with that. That would be a gimped conference. There isn't even a single DS game in there. You're telling me they can announce Spirit Tracks at GDC but pretend it doesn't exist at E3?

Not only that but I would have to wonder what their development teams are doing. I can understand why they didn't announce a lot at their last E3 conference: just look at what's been released between now and then. Outside of Excitebots and Punch-Out!! there wasn't much else they could say and stick to their planwith not hyping games years in advance.

To be honest, though I'm not expecting it, I'd be pleased with a Monolith or Zelda Wii announcement. In Zelda's case it doesn't necessarilyhave to be Zelda Wii (in fact I don't expect that until next E3), but possibly Retro Zelda...

Im not absolutey sure now. A while back they said there arent going to be anymore big announements from them at all, from the upcomming e3's due to it only being a buisness summit. but now that they're scaling it back up for more people to join its making me wonder if they came back to their senses and are going to continue on announcing their core franchises and what not.

I don't care about a new Zelda or a Mario... been there done that this gen. And if they announce any shovelware i will not be pleased.

However, if they announce a new iteration of a classic series not yet done on the wii/Ds I will be happy. for example, a DS smash bros, New F-Zero/pilotwings on either.

Also, for Nintendo at E3 expect new wii channels to be announced..

It wouldn't be enough because we know they've got more going on. They should tear down the walls and show everything that's coming out this year or early next year, at least, everything of note.

I don't understand why some of you say Zelda has already been done this gen. Don't forget Twilight Princess is a GameCube title.
What I want to say is that I want to see high quality games that may be rated with 9.5 or more. They haven't shown this kind of games for a long time and have been showing crap like Wii Fit, Wii Music, Animal Crossing.... so now it is the time to convince hardcore gamers that they still can do quality games....if not...they have one less user.

That´s because nobody cares much about the DS when we talk about E3. The DS had so many excelent games along the years, that new announcements are just an overkill.

Meanwhile, everybody feels that the Wii hasnt quite lived to its potential yet. Everybody still waiting something big from it.

This.

I really don't know why they didn't choose to announce Pokemon/Metroid Trilogy at E3... And I expect the games you mentioned (all but StarFox) to be at E3 too; plus Mario and Sonic 2 and some of the games which were announced at the 10/02 conference: Dynamic Zan, Cosmic Walker...

I hope for you guys that you don't expect Zelda Wii to be announced, otherwise you will be disappointed.

(i said a lot of stuff. A bug in VGchartz deleted all. I forgot what i said. Im old)
