This is one of the secret Nintendo titles, courtesy of that ign board member I mentioned in another thread who snuck into Nintendo's booth and took a bunch of pictures (apparently Nintendo's security is a joke).

Honestly, I have no idea what to make of this game. I took a picture of the control scheme:



but obviously it did not come out very well. If someone could work on it, maybe we could find out what is says. What little I remember is that the left trigger controls the left flipper and the right controls the right flipper. So it sounds like pinball right? But it appears to be some kind of Fuedal Japan battle game judging by the poster. You're guess is really as good as mine on this one.

According to some sources Geist, along with Starfox, are 100% done. Don't know if I believe that though. Can't wait to see how it looks now.

Not SF 2, just Starfox. Guess they couldn't come up with a good subtitle.



A guy at the IGN boards who is posting a lot of these E3 pics said that he's seen two of the secret games and even played one of them and if the IGN editors don't have a problem with it he's gonna post pics at 6:30 PST. I don't know if I want the surprise spoiled though, but I'm gonna be at work tomorrow during the conference so it might be better to get excited here. :D

Muh? I thought it was just the new name for Donkey Konga but as this pic clearly shows Donkey Konga is already there. Jungle Beat is the name of the Konga expansion in Japan, but why would they show them separately?

Wow, this is certainly a surprise! Is it an all-new GBA DK platformer or something else?

WOOOT!!!






Strange that it's being called Advance Wars, but I suppose that most casual gamers wouldn't be smart enough to figure out that "Cube Wars" is a part of the same series.

It's official!!!



Tomorrow is going to be so awesome!

Proof!!!

During the next few days, post new E3 pics and info from various games that are shown with "E3:" before the title of the game for future reference. Makes it easier searching through the archive down the line. :)

To start things off here's a first look at the MP2 booth at E3, and as you can see the title is official. Ah well, at least the logo looks cool.
