Wouldn't it make more sense to make this thread just before E3? otherwise hype can easily go trough the roof and everyone might end up disappointed.

2006 was the best, no contest. Thankfully, this year will be similar. Nintendo virtually has nothing announced, so expect some BIG games. It seems Nintendo's best E3s are always even numbered, and their worst are odd. Example, 2006 was awesome, 2005/2007 were lame.

A new Zelda will probably be announced, just look at Wintry_Flutist's theory. Besides that, Little King's Story = Playable = WIN

Well it's hard to predict something that we don't even know exists. You don't know if Nintendo is cooking a new IP or not until it's officially unveiled. As for currently unveiled new IPs, there is Disaster (though things look shaky for that one).

Nah, Nintendo does that so much, and it's almost never appreciated.

I think I want to see F-Zero though.

Well they're going to be in the Kodak Theatre again so it has to be something big. I want a hard drive announced more than anything else right now. Or at least an update that can recognize External HDD's.

After last years "show" I'm not getting too excited.

But something inside me is hoping either for a DS 2 (there's no new DS games for a reason.....) or a new Game Boy for the "hardcore gamers."

Besides maybe EA Nintendo has the largest library of IPs to fall back on. They only been making games for almost 30 years now.

Whats the hype? As far as i'm concerned it looks to be a pretty average E3 for Nintendo. Unless they the new Zelda that's the way it's going to be. sony's E3 is what it's all about.

I honestly don't think they'll do any more for core gamers than they did last year. I'll wait and see, though, because my expectations are ridiculously low, I might be impressed.

I think it's more than a rumour. GoW3 is supposed to be officially revealed at E3. The game comes out in March 09....

I wish they would release a Pokemon RPG for the Wii instead of the DS with online features. I would definitly get a Wii for that plus Pokemon hasn't been good since Gold and Silver IMO. Plus that s just money in the bank for Nintendo. I always wondered why they never released a big Pokemon game for there consoles. I didn't like staduim or the new one for that matter . (maybe they have someone enlighten me.

Anyway, I expect them to drop a new Zelda game, Kid Icarus, and improving online.
