Prognosticating E3

With E306 getting underway, basically tomorrow, Game|Life has some predictions of what we'll see from Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. From the Nintendo piece: "Remember the amazing surprise when Twilight Princess was shown off at E3 2004? Nintendo's press conference on Tuesday will be something on the order of two dozen of those 'holy shit!' moments, all strung together. Fanboy tears will flow. Nintendo will make some surprising announcements about online for both DS and Wii. The 'nunchuck' attachment for the Wii will also have an accelerometer inside it -- it won't be able to detect the position of the controller relative to the screen, but it will be able to detect tilt."

    That is not a prediction. It was confirmed by an EA representative last week.

    One thing seems certain... Nintendo will have a much bigger and better launch title line up for the Wii than for previous Nintendo consoles.

    Time magazine just revealed Wario Ware Revolution and a Tennis game. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.video.nin tendo/browse_frm/thread/0c34d048d64a8afd/1a7d18802 7394f91#1a7d188027394f91/
