E3 info and discussion (13 updates) (now with tons of media)

Postby supertoad » Tue May 09, 2006 8:18 pm

The day has come and there's so much to see! For the first time in years I'm genuinly excited about dozens of games all at once! This could turn out to be the best year for gaming since the 80s. Expect updates here throughout the night.

Most links lead to articles with plenty of gameplay videos. Feel free to start new topics about any of these games if you feel they deserve more attention. Also, I'm only listing first party games/info here.

Best E3 ever... So many platformers... Such nice Wii games... :D

2005 was a boring year for Nintendo, but 2006 (and, I assume for some of these games, 2007) is going to be wonderful.

Awesome!

Don't really care much for Metroid Prime 3 however. I was hoping for a 2D side scrolling Metroid game.

How can you not want another Metroid Prime? A lot of people say it copies Halo, but it actually doesn't. It's really innovative, and the Wii controller is actually the perfect solution to the Right Trigger predicament for aiming.
