Default Nintendo Press Conference

http://www.gamespot.com/e3/e3live.html

By far the most entertaining conference between the 3, Wii is just unbeleavable. My jaw dropped after watching the footage.

Highly recommended: Grab the higher quality torrent here: http://ts.searching.com/torrent/7298...ference_Hi_Res

I watched it live via Gamespot and this was indeed the best conference out of the big three. (Last year's best conference was Sony in my opinion.)

Anyone who wants to keep track of updates should definitely refresh the E3 page of both IGN and Gamespot throughout the week.

Yeah the Wii definitely looks better in my eyes after watching that, though I'm still unsure if I would buy one.

I'd better not watch it, since I have bashed the name so badly...

Heh, I still don't like the game, but so far, the E3 has completly changed my perception of Nintendo's newest console; I'd suggest watching it just to give it a change of heart.

Physical therapists are going to LOVE the business that this thing will generate for them... RSI city. Tendonitis, anyone?

Apparently, it was mentionned that the sensitivity on the remotes on the show where cranked insanely high, which meant that a gigantic movement would be needed in order to do accomplish a movement. This probably means that the sensitivity will be able to be adjusted, and thus mean that easy twists of the hand will give out the same results

I also suspect that using it, at least at first, will be pretty frustrating, since a perceived lack of control (unless they have designed the controllers perfectly) is likely due to the new interface.
Yes, that's kind of a run-on sentence.
