While some may oppose, I would say that last year's E3 press conference was an epic failure on Nintendo's part. Although they had some exciting news such as the revelation of Mario Kart Wii and the announcement of 32 player online for Medal of Honor: Heroes 2, the majority of the conference was spent talking about the Wii's success and how great Wii fit was. Forget about last year. Lets talk about how awesome this year's press conference will be. I would go as far to say that Nintendo will steal the show this year.
This last week has shown some surprises already for the Wii. And while we've had our fair share of guesses, at E3 we can expect more surprising announcements. Pikmin 3? Perhaps. A storage solution? Most definitely. A Zelda trailer? Highly probable.
It may sound, stumbling, but let me explain...
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Not a chance. The best things Nintendo could possibly show are nothing compared to the games Sony and MS are going to show. Ninty isn't worried I'm sure. They will just do it like they did last year, tease the core gamers into believing they will release something for us. Sony has this one in the bag, just like last year.
I don't care if Sony or Microsoft wins this generation, as long as one of them wins and not Nintendo. This whole gaming for soccer moms and grandparents by nintendo is putting a huge jeopardy to core gamers. Once the Wii reaches a 100 million install base, third party publishers will inevitably release their flagship franchises on the system. Ask yourself, do you really want to see games like Final Fantasy XIV, Call of Duty 5, Kingdom Hearts 3, Resident Evil 6, Metal Gear Solid 5, and Grand Theft Auto 5 go on the Wii as opposed to PS3/360?
Bottom line: F*ck the Wii and F*ck Nintendo

nintendo will release the same types of games that the core audience like(Mario,Starfox,Pikmin,Poke mon,etc.) with a twist(motion Controls). Dont be surprised if they announce a sequel to wii sports. Their main audience now is the casual audience.
please dont make me laugh
All my respect for the big N went out the door with the wii. They were cutting it close with the past few systems, but this was the last straw, and boy did they run with it.
