... I already did! In the FUTURE!!!
Nintendo totally owned the show, and showed off playable demos of Metroid Prime 2, Star Fox 2, and videos of Wind Waker 2, Mario 128, Fire Emblem, and a really insane but awesome looking surprise title from Nintendo (I don't want to spoil it, but think "open-ended RPG pirate game")!! The DS was also a big surprise as it was actually quite awesome, and the games looked much better than your typical N64 game. Nintendo showed off tons of DS games, including a new Zelda game, a new Metroid game, and the first new 2D Mario game since Yoshi's Island, aptly named Super Mario Bros. 6. My future self said that it featured an incredible blend of 2D and 3D graphics and was easily the best DS game of the show. The touch screen was better than most people thought it would be, too. In Mario 6 it allowed you to paint objects in the world using the touch pad while you played, which may sound weird but worked incredibly well. Imagine running through a level and then drawing a boat which you could then ride to the next world, or drawing Mario a cape so that he could fly. Really awesome stuff.
