. . . . (sigh of relief) Thank you Nintendo. By the way, nice way to intro E3 you sneaky little geniuses.

I just hope they do better than releasing a "Luigi's Mansion" for the first titles. Don't get me wrong, Luigi's Mansion was very enjoyable, but think of how much more consoles Nintendo would have moved if they released the 'Cube with Mario Sunshine, LOZ Wind Waker, or Metroid Prime!!

There is one freaking awesome mask spider man wears, I want one.

As a longtime fan of Nintendo, I think that maybe they should switch headquarters from Japan to here in America. Maybe then they can learn from successful American advertising firms on how to release a new system to the press. . . On the other hand, I have been waiting for a new hand held system for years and love the idea of a touch screen. Maybe now they'll up the graphics, add applications, improve the control scheme (a d-pad was so 15 years ago), and above all link it to Wii shop channel so N64 and lower resolution titles can be taken on the go. Add a phone functionality (via Wi Fi) and Nintendo might just have a true I-Phone killer. . .

Honestly, I don't expect Sega to pull out all the stops. Things like this happen when a company that used to make consoles and games with them only makes games now. I haven't seen a good Sonic since Sonic Adventure 2. . .

For Squeeballs: I never knew an infected toe could sparkle. . .

For the Tekken 6 shot: "What do you mean you're breaking up with me?!!!" "Is that a duck in your shoe or are you just happy to see me?"

If you think that you can tell a very descriptive story where everyone does everything according to a script using video games, you are wrong. Games are more like an unscripted, loose telling of a story where the character's actions (and sometimes words) are malleable.

Ah! I remember the old SNES TMNT! My cousin and I would play over and over again, then we'd get teed off at super Shredder and use the Game Genie to put in God Mode. . . Good days. . .

You also might want to grab some old remakes from the virtual console such as Super Mario World, Mario 64, LOZ:OOT, and Majora's Mask.
