What do you guys think of the "new" Wii Zapper? I like it, but mainly, I like that Reggie said it would be packed in with the games. I assume that means if I buy RE: The Umbrella Chronicles or Ghost Squad, I'll get the Zapper for free. I also like that they called it "Zapper." Kind of a little homage to the NES peripheral. That and the "Now You're Playing With Power" soundbite they used during the conference was good stuff for nerds like me.  |

Yeah, I missed it too. gametrailers.com/player/21541.htmlNot much, but it shows off some nice little secrets. EDIT: I must be going crazy. If you look at 00:40 you can see a character to the far right. I sware I'm seeing Sonic. IU thought it was Kirby or Meta Knight, but the character is longer and lankier then them. I must be losing it. |

From what I understand (I could be wrong) it will be bundled with a new Nintendo game developed especially to introduce it. |

32 players for MoH is great news, and the first we've heard of a game on Wii doing this. MK looked great, much better than DD was. And DK now confirmed for Brawl.

Reggie did say that Nintendo was developing a game that would use the Zapper, but I think it was before that (and after he mentioned it's compatibility with RE:TUC, GS, and Medal of Honor) when he simply said it would be bundled in with "the software." I suppose Nintendo will clarify that before the week is over. |

 Hot dang. EAD Tokyo sure knows how to cook up some eye-pleasing graphics. This and the gorgeous DK: Jungle Beat... I can't wait to see some of their future projects. And Bee Mario is awesome. |

Also, Nintendo's E3 microsite has a video demonstrating Wii Fit (which is called Wii Fitness on Nintendo Europe's E3 microsite). This new controller is very... clever! |

Forever Blue will apparantly be released in the US as Endless Ocean. That should give it a good chance of reaching PAL regions as well. I am happy.  |

Wow! After checking out the video on that microsite, I've changed my mind on getting Wii Fit. It definitely appeals to me, and that balance board is one snazzy piece of kit. Yes, I could definitely see a snowboarding game being made for it.
