Camelot will be bringing Golden Sun to DS. Though the footage shown was short, the game will use 3D graphics and it looks sharp for the DS. Expect official information and some footage shortly.

Finally, something interesting from Nintendo. Frankly, I'm tired of Mario.

I might consder buying a DS for this game, or steal it from a little kid. Really this game is the one my my only reasons to get back to playing a portable system (and FFVII Crisis Core)

1.4 - Nintendo Show:
Very Bad Start...
The new Mario game really looks disappointing and Wii Fit Plus is just an extension to the existing. A quick sequel in other words. The motion plus is to fix the controller because it never has worked right.

I will update as it goes!

Update: After seeing the next step in gaming (MS Motion), watching the Nintendo Show is really poor. Having to purchase an addon to make the controller more accurate is ridiculous.

Update 3: DS titles looking fairly poor as well. So far, no core games. Primarily focusing on family games and etc.

Interactive novel for DS....enough said! Looks very poor.

Instead of using a controller, they need to focus on using your entire body.

Wii Resort isn't looking too hot either. Maybe for the younger it may be interesting but to core gamers, there is not much here. A collection of mini games that have been seen elsewhere.

Update 4: Final Fantasy is looking poor but Kingdom Hearts looks promising. Of course, wait and see.

Update 5: What blows my mind is that this is the best Nintendo has come to show us. This is what they thought was going to amaze us.

Very poor!

Update 6: A woman stated she plays with herself and so far, this is the only positive aspect to the Nintendo show.

Nintendo is focusing on the DS and not the Wii. Software is looking very limited for the Wii. No one is clapping. No response from the crowd so far. DS games are looking poor and extremely dated.

Update 7: The Nintendo show should be wrapping up soon. By far, just as terrible as last year. This is seriously, terrible!

The Global President is now on stage speaking of 'gaymers in all of us.' Nintendo needs to have someone on stages that gamers can relate too.

The woman is terrible and only fits in with older women.

Update 8: A new addon has been announce. A sensor that rates heart rate and etc. Yet another addon and nothing that really translates into games. Very poor design. Large. Wired.

Nintendo says that gaming may help players sleep and I believe Nintendo is doing a great job of putting everyone to sleep now. No one is clapping.

Update 9: A new Mario title is announced and this time is looks good. A hell of a lot better than the first one, which should be on the ds. This title looks to be very similar to Galaxy and not completely original. Sad to see that they haven't gone in newer direction.

Update 10: The show is wrapping up and honestly, I think that is a very good move for Nintendo. The show has been poor on every front. Just as last year, the showing was poor and nothing very good has been announced.

Another announcement is coming. Three titles are coming before year end.

Conduit: Nothing new and poorly reviewed.

Resident Evil Dark Side (back side): Another title that is known to be in the pipes. Nothing new here.

EA has Dead Space for the Wii: The game looks to have the atmosphere but clearly the graphics look terrible. Seriously bad. Control looks very rough. Not getting a good response from the crowd for a good reason.

Update 11: Nintendo has a new IP coming. Nintendo has teamed with team ninja to bring a new Metroid game. More of a side scrolling fighter with 3d elements. Looks rather poor. Game gets a few claps. More than anything else Nintendo has shown.

Update: 12 Reggie is speaking again and will hopefully stop the bleeding and will end the show. Clearly, MS has has the show of a life time. Nintendo looks like a business that is trying to sell addons and sequel extension games. A terrible game for sure.

Some of the best JRPGs out there. I love Golden Sun. I'm unsure of the new art style, but the turn-based combat and exploration aspects have always been top-notch.

EDIT: LMFAO Cammie Dunaway - "If you think that's all the Mario news you can handle, think again." She just totally owned the very company she works for by expressing the lack of diversity in their game catalogue. Golden Sun stole the show for me. Not even this new Mario game can combat this monster.

EDIT 2: The next Metroid game looks interesting. But that is probably the worst title I've ever seen.

The second they showed this, Kingdom Hearts, and refreshing my memory of that new Zelda I was looking at the DSi now as something I may have to buy.

Still tough to call between PSP and this, but I tend to not touch handhelds often, because I get headaches from the small screens easier. The PSP would offer me help there with hooking it up to my PS3 and playing off my TV.

In short at the very least I'm borrowing my buddies DS to get a crack at it. I loved the first and second. :)

@Gamertags

Core games haven't exactly sold well for the Wii, so it's obvious why Nintendo is bringing out more casual Nintendo titles using Wii-plus.

I love your statement:

"Update 6: A woman stated she plays with herself and so far...."

I instantly thought of Quagmire from Family Guy, "Giddity Giddity, Alllriighhhtt...". Bubbled you up for the Nintendo updates, much appreciated (^_^). I love golden sun, instant buy for me.

I remember playing it...

Edit: Yup why did it take so long? I always wondered what happened to that franchise. It was a very good JRPG.

It looks pretty good though. I wonder how will they utilize that light sensing feature.

Waited to hear this announcement for six years. Day 1 buy for me. I was in tears when they showed the trailer. I poured my heart and soul into the first two games. This is my E3 #1 highlight to-date.
