E3 (big conference/expo) had Nintendo in the Kodak Theater (American Idol Finale place). Here’s what was announced:
There’s going to be a new Wiimote add-on for greater sensitivity to motion. Its goal is to be closer to a 1:1 motion experience. Here’s what that means:

1. Closer to the virtual reality we saw in movies in the late 90s
2. Lightsaber moves where your gloved prosthetic hand moves
3. A lot more options for games, like a new Wii Sports

Wii Sports Resort. It’s a whole bunch of beach-themed games, like jet skis and frisbee tossing (see, the new MotionPlus is cool?)

But the coolest part of Wii Sports Resort?
1:1 saber duels

Look at the dueling sticks.
Blue? Red? Are these Jungian archetypes or was it just Miyamoto saying, “Dude! Lucasarts! Do we have to do it ourselves? Fine, then!”

WiiMusic

I’ve been waiting for this game. Like Guitar Hero/Rock Band, but with 50+ instruments! Woo, orchestra mode! And you can record music videos. Remotes mixed with balance boards, with four people rocking out. The nice thing is the remotes you already have, so no need for a peripheral. And the add-on balance board is just to enhance the drum pedals.

And a WiiSpeak voice chat microphone was announced. Meh, except that this means a greater focus on online multiplayer than previous outings. A new Animal Crossing sounds fun (like The Sims but where everyone is constantly connected in an anime world).

We’re at 1,000 posts. Expect some fun celebrations coming up.
