Nintendo promises "big game" for Xmas News
DS Wii News by Ellie Gibson
Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime has promised big things from the company at this year's E3 whilst declining to offer any proper information at all.
His comments came in an interview with GameTrailers TV. According to Fils-Aime, Nintendo has something tip top lined-up for Christmas '08: "There's gonna be a big game for the holiday that gamers will want," he stated.
"All I can tell you is what we announce during E3 is gonna be fantastic. The gamer is gonna be excited and the expanded audience is gonna be excited."
So what's so exciting, exactly? Fils-Aime wouldn't say, but at another point in the interview he did confirm that the titles Nintendo releases after E3 will be "maximising all of our key franchises". DKC please, you can keep stupid old Banjo.

Whatever the big game is, Europe won't get it until a year from now.
Maybe we'll get Brawl for Xmas, if we're really super good this year! |

If it's Pikmin, I'll weep with joy. But I'm sure it will be Animal Crossing... I'll still w00t.

You have to sit on the balance board for 10 hours a day in front of the TV :-) |

I think Animal Crossing has already been half-announced, so I'm gonna go with a new Zelda.
HOPEFULLY in the Wind Waker style, I liked that :-) |

I think Zelda is unlikely because they seem to like announcing those well in advance (twilight Princess was 2 and a half years between announcement and release.
Animal Crossing would seem most likely, especially with the expanded audience comment. And the only reason this comment's being made is they've now ran out of big upcoming games (after Brawl, Mario Kart and Wii Fit). There's plenty to keep me going until then, my 360 will be going out of service for a while, assuming it doesn't break first. |

Wii doing great, but my anticipation for must have games on Wii is not as high as it is for games coming on X360 and PS3.
I m only looking forward to on Wii games like Smash Bro,... and errrr ...nope already out ...no got that... well, how about and Wii Fit?!! Why keep it mysterious they ARE in dire straits for AAA games that appeal to traditional gamers SO should just come clean now and give a lift to Wii owners. We know what titles we are looking forward to this Xmas on X360 and PS3 but on Wii? |

"The gamer is gonna be excited and the expanded audience is gonna be excited."
Expanded audience = Wii Sports 2, Wii Nintendogs or Wii Brain Training.
