After Wario i'm pretty sure thats all of Nintendos usual big hitters out of the way. They've bought themselves about a year and a half worth of time for other developers to step in with a big new franchise to add to the selection of Wii games and yet there is still nothing.

I like the Wii but it seems that for a machine which has sold phenomenally well most developers still see it as a gimmick and won't back it up with a good solid game.

Kinda seems weird as any developer could step in with one good game and be hailed by millions as gods whereas releasing the same game on the 360 would be drowned out by other more established titles.

Nintendo has many announcements at E3. Expect Donkey Kong, F Zero, Starfox, Wave Race... new Zelda... Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion etc...

@2: True, and they are all great games, I'm just dissappointed that i recognise all the names. While they will no doubt sell well i've been playing donkey kong for years. I remember playing star fox on the snes with its big polygon bad guys, its a testament to the quality of the teams making the games that they steal have appeal but i'd like to see something new instead of the same names every year.

@2

Maybe, but Nintendo haven't announced anything for those franchises or whether there will be an announcment at E3, I assume it's mere speculation on your part? I certainly haven't heard anything.
