Nintendo was founded in Kyoto, Japan in 1889 as a manufacturer of hanafuda playing cards. The company went through several small niche businesses before becoming a video game company.
Remember how excited we all were for The Revolution? It's weird to see so much fanfare for Nintendo's event amidst so much Wii bashing of the last couple years. I'm excited but with some reservations. I really don't want to buy another Nintendo machine just to play Mario, Zelda, and Metroid. I finally need more which is definitely a very very very recent change in my way of thinking about Nintendo. I hope they wow us!
Indeed ^__^ I am hyped for this more than the other conferences. I guess the thing about Nintendo is that you never know what weird stuff they're going to announce...

I just really dislike what the WIi represents in video games today. I've never hated Nintendo. I was actually so much more excited for the Wii than anything else when it was released, and that's probably why I and so many others have felt so let down. I think it proves that most Wii bashers don't hate Nintendo, we just want to see them to better, and appeal more to people like us.
Dunno if it's just Gamespot's feed, but hearing Muse - Uprising is pretty weird when looking at a video game press conference. Looks like there's lots of people there.

Yeah I see what you mean. It's just so weird how much goodwill amidst the hardcore (sorry for using that term) Nintendo built up before the Wii's launch and how much that's changed since then.
If i have to play Mario Cafe, Zelda Cafe, etc. with motion, then im out. Thats the one reason i could not finish Galaxy 2, motion only gaming is not for me.
