So, Nintendo didn't announce any new Wii Zelda game, but knowing Nintendo that likely means it's not in presentable form at the moment. Yet where I wasn't expecting anything (and one where I was for a LONG time) is where they delivered.

Since some, most, or all of you will no doubt be absorbing all things E3 over the week, here's just a simple list of what I'm excited for, even if I'll curb my enthusiasm til a price drop (more for Wii games than DS games):

New Super Mario Bros. Wii (finally, real multiplayer co-op Mario in 2D!).

Mario Galaxy 2 (finally, Yoshi's back for real!).

Golden Sun DS (FINALLY INDEED! Took you long enough, Camelot Software!).

Metroid: Other M (finally... some story focused... Metroid game? Dang, this came out of left field. I'm wowed, but cautiously optimistic).

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story (nothing like some tongue-in-cheek humor to round out the package. The subtitle is hilarious).

So, looks like there's going to be some good stuff.
