Nintendo's E3 Media Presentation on June 7th @ 9 a.m. PDT

On the agenda is the new Nintendo system!

Highlights:

Nintendo Wii U




Controller has a 6.2" Touchscreen, gyroscope, accelerometer, camera & is backwards compatible with all Wii accessories.

Batman: Arkham City, an Assassin's Creed game, Dirt, Ghost Recon Online, Tekken, Metro Last Light, Aliens Colonial Marines, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge, and Darksiders II all got a mention as coming to the Wii U. Yes! EA's John Riccitiello just said the Wii U will deliver "brilliant HD graphics." Finally, the Wii is going HD!

Nintendo admits it's Wii U highlight reel was spiced up with PS3 & Xbox 360 footage:

Nintendo's E3 2011 keynote yesterday gave the world its first official look at the all-new Wii U hardware plus (we thought) a glimpse at the graphical capabilities of its next console. As it turns out, the impressive list of upcoming games for the 2012-bound console was just that, a list, with the visuals we saw on screen coming from PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of said titles. Nintendo of America chief Reggie Fils-Aime has confirmed that to be the case in an interview with GameTrailers, where he also points out that the eventual Wii U games will look at least as good as their PS3 / 360 counterparts. Which is why, in his eyes, it's okay to show us those games being played on the competition's (current-gen) hardware. He does remind us that the Wii U will be delivering graphics at a 1080p resolution, and points to the garden tech demo that also graced E3 as an indicator of what can be done with Nintendo's next console. That's all well and good, but maybe tell us in advance next time, Reggie?

I did, however, enjoy the hell out of Goldeneye 007 on N64.

The n64 was a pretty dope system. The Super Nintendo before that was awesome too. I gave up on them after those 2 though. Been a Sony man ever since.

PS1

2 different PS2's, an orignal black and a slim silver one.

Currently a white PS3(japanese, imported).
