Only Hoth.

Here, have some more trailers.

[Jericho]

Can you feel the HYPE?

On another note, there's a bunch of interesting things out there. I'm updating the main post with recent news stories that may or may not pan out for the event as we speak.

[Protoman Blues]

Rumor has it that Retro is working on a new DK game.

Of course, we all know what I think of rumors! 

[irgpie]

There were yet even more Zelda Wii rumours today. Some of these sound quite ridiculous though, especially the first one. Although I would like to see a Difficulty Selection.

[Jericho]

Better yet, just to save myself a bit of work, I'll only update the OP as the conferences take place & news breaks. This part is always the toughest to deal with.

[Protoman Blues]

If Retro does re-do DK, he needs to be blacker.

Jericho, bless your heart, that photo made me laugh. Well done!

That moon KNOWS good 3D!

[Hypershell]

Damn that moon, it'll stop at nothing to destroy the 3DS!

On Zelda rumors, these days I don't consider much of anything too outlandish for Nintendo (save for MMO's and voice chatting, anyway).  We'll just have to wait and see.

Jericho, bless your heart, that photo made me laugh. Well done!

At the very least, I can't take responsibility for making it. Still, it's a lovely and fitting pic isn't it.

DAT 3D!

So like... if your child or dog runs in front of the screen... it'll kill you, right?

Also, Natal sounds better. inb4 blasphemy.

Natal is Christmas in my language. It sounds incredibly stupid to me.

So it's Kinect as in Kinetic energy? Sounds like gimmick in my language. 

Of course, now I'm just being an ass.

Also, didn't answer my question. That was actually a real question >_>

[Black Mage J]

Everyone remember it was Project Natal, not Natal.
But what's blasphemy is my church changing the lyrics of Simon And Garfunkle songs to things about the lord.

also Kinect as in, "connect" with people/togetherness.

looks like Microsoft sucking up to the Wii.

Hmm.

Fair enough. I still think they're appealing to Gambit too much.
