It's been well-known for quite some time that you can use the regular Wii controller, the classic controller, or the GameCube's controller for SSBB...

Looks like only thing I want out of Nintendo's camp is SSB, Metroid, and may be Mario Galaxy...was expecting more hardcore games not more gimmicks for fat people. This a successful campaign though, because weight loss+anything=sells like hotcakes.

Thanks for the info

i know MS announced some big new titles and L.E. Halo Xbox 360

i just think Nintendo have such a good buzz at the mo and so many ppl like the console that they should make the most of that, not just rely on that to keep selling units

Take a look online at some of the high-quality videos for Galaxies. It looks vastly superior to Sunshine, and a solid game.

Personally, I was not a fan of the Metroid games on the GameCube, but Corruption is looking quite good. N4G.com : Metroid Prime 3 - E3 2007 trailer, gameplay video and screens

I'm not sure about you, but personally, I think that looks great.

Sony had an awesome showing
Nintendo doesn't care about you unless you're a mom gamer.
Microsoft seemed too intent on reassuring everyone that they'd done the right thing when buying a 360.
we don't have time to stop for gas
