E3: Day 2, Sony and Nintendo's Turn

[ZSN]

Today at E3 was Sony and Nintendo's time to shine in the spotlight. Except for one thing. I think they forgot to turn on the light switch, because nothing today impressed me as much as just Microsoft impressing me yesterday. Even though they did not do good to my standards, there still was some good to come out of it. First up, Nintendo.

Nintendo

Though not as great as Microsoft's, here is what you will be seeing in the Wii's near future.

* Wii MotionPlus - Add better control to the Wii Controller
* WiiSpeak - Nothing fancy, just a microphone for the Wii for the game, Animal Crossing.

You see, nothing all that wow. Now for the games the company decided to show off.

* Shaun White Snowboarding - use the WiiBalance with this game
* You will see new titles from Zelda and Mario appear for the Wii in the future.
* Wii Sports Resort
* Clone Wars: Light Saber Duels


I am sure there are more titles that I left out, but Nintendo is not the greatest at linking press releases.

Nintendo didn't show rockband 2 Or Guitar Hero World Tour. Off the top of my head, they said something about pokemon rangers 2, spore, GTA, animal crossing, a new guitar hero for the ds.

I just saw the Nintendo one and it was sub par for me.
