Microsoft's conference yesterday was a hard act to follow. With many surprise announcements of exclusive games as well as Project Natal they've set the bar to which Nintendo and Sony have to live up to.
So do they? Nintendo's E3 conference last year was a huge disappointment, with none of their franchise mascots staring in a game of their own. This year however seems more promising with the announcement of sequels to many of Nintendo's popular games. Click the game titles for trailers or more info.
