Did you read any impressions from the show?
This is the big secret game that Miyamoto was talking about! Before he unveiled the game he said that he had a new surprise game to show everyone, and that they were "all very fortunate to be here today." Everyone was expecting Mario 128 or something and instead he shows Pacman! And no, not a graphical update or anything like that, but a perfect port of the original game, just with added multiplayer support.
If this was just a little mini-game or something then I'd have no problem with it, but it looks like this was the big secret game that Miyamoto said would be unveiled at E3. I still can't believe it. I hope there was a serious mistake and that the real secret game will be shown tomorrow, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
