July 15, 2008 - The IGN Nintendo Team has landed safely inside the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, CA. We are preparing for our live blog and waiting to find out what the next year of Wii, DS, and all things Nintendo have in store for us. Join us on this page for the latest updates.

Also, be sure to hit up IGN Live Wire for our live streaming video coverage.

8:48 - Getting ready for the briefing to begin. The Kodak Theater is defeating the power of wireless technology. That's less than ideal.

8:52 - The crowd is hyped, the expectations high. Making some progress with the wireless connection. Bozon looks scared.

9:02 - Things are about to get started. Everyone's getting settled in, turning their attention to the stage.

9:06 - A collage of photos plays across the screen. People are cheering in the pictures. We hope to join their excitement soon.

9:08 - Here we go.

9:09 - A montage video of people playing and enjoying the Wii. Chobot's in the video, for whatever reason.

9:11 - "We promise to keep the world smiling..." the videos says. Cammy Dunaway takes the stage.

9:12 - Cammy talks about being a mom. Shows pictures of her snowboarding vacation. What in the world.

9:13 - Shaun White appears, demonstrates his snowboarding game on Wii that uses the Balance Board.

9:14 - "The Flying Tomato" is smiling and happy. He looks a lot like Carrot Top.

9:16 - Shaun and Cammy exchange pleasantries, and are now playing Shaun White Snowboarding together. Cammy's happy to have not injured herself - though her jaw muscles are certainly getting strained.

9:17 - Iwata arrives.

9:17 - Iwata-san rememebers E3's past. Gets nostalgic.

9:19 - He remarks that he never could have guessed, five years ago, that the company would have sold so many bathroom scales by now. (Wii Fit.) The DS big sellers are featured, including Nintendogs and New Super Mario Bros.

9:21 - The user base has expanded, changed. Discusses the differences between more mainstream titles like Mario and Zelda, and the casual games like Wii Sports.

9:22 - Numbers, sales. Tons of hardware is being moved.

9:23 - Guitar Hero III is helping to "destroy the psychological barrier" with gamers. But what is next? Sooner or later, people will get tired. He takes a jab at Microsoft, mentioning that other companies are copying innovations.

9:24 - "Personally, I believe we must find new ways for players to be engaged." Players must be enriched, given increased enthusiasm.

9:26 - New Animal Crossing announced. "Animal Crossing: City Folk" for Wii, coming in 2008.

9:28 - Animal Crossing's director explains the new City environment in AC Wii. There's an auction house, and a Happy Room Academy where you can find out what other players are doing. You can visit Gracie at her fashion store, and get your hair did. Masks are introduced, and your character can look like your Mii. Messages can be sent from the game to friend's real world cell phone.

9:30 - The new "WiiSpeak" microphone peripheral is announced - finally, a Voice Chat solution for the Wii. Will be utilized in Animal Crossing for player gatherings.

9:31 - "Looking ahead, I want players to have the freedom to be able to create their own world."

9:32 - Reggie arrives on stage. He's ready to rock.

9:32 - "We're pleased with Animal Crossing and WiiSpeak, and even more pleased with our marketplace data." 10 million Wii, 20 million DS, over 5 billion retail dollars earned in hardware sales just in the US.

9:33 - Lifetime Global Hardware Unit Sales for all the last generation systems - the biggest bar belongs to DS. Expected DS sales to grow to over 100 million DS systems.

9:33 - So far in 2008, DS sales are running another 12% ahead of last year's record. Pokemon pushed sales with over 600,000 copies of the most recent Mystery Dungeon titles. Over 180 million Pokemon games sold now.

9:35 - Talks about the new celebrity endorsement female-focused ad series that began in May. Sales more than doubled as a result.

9:36 - Reggie anticipates that Thursday's June NPD numbers will declare Wii #1 in America.

9:36 - "No system has ever sold more games in its first 19 months of availibility."

9:37 - Established mascots were leveraged early on to reassure veteran gamers. Then joined by new titles, like Wii Sports and Fit. Over 400,000 units sold for 19 different third party games.

9:38 - The Wii library is growing faster than the other systems.

E3 '08: Nintendo press conference--LIVE!
It's time for "The Big N" to lay its cards on the table. Get all the details direct from the event as it happens.
http://e3.gamespot.com/story.html?si...tories;title;1

9:46 PDTThe DS is more than games though. Dunaway says the DS is being tested at airports to tell travelers where their baggage claim will be, what nearby restaurant options are there, etc. She also brings up the continuing DS interactive options at the Seattle Mariners' ballpark. Then there's meal planning software that she says will arrive in the US this November.
9:45 PDTThat gets a rise out of the crowd. She says it will feature the trademark GTA gameplay in a Liberty City setting, albeit with a custom game engine.
9:45 PDT
Star Wars: Clone Wars makes lightsaber decapitation fun!
9:44 PDTAs for core gamer efforts on the DS, she says Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars will arrive on the DS this December.
9:43 PDTDunaway brings up one last DS game, Pokemon Rangers: Shadows of Almia, which will arrive in the US November 10.
9:42 PDTA trailer shows Vicarious Visions' On Tour Decades, which will introduce song share between DS players with different versions of On Tour. Transitioning to Spore, clips of the DS concept art are shown as an EA rep explains the game's creature creator and various design decisions in bringing Will Wright's ambitious PC game to the handheld platform.
9:41 PDTDunaway returns to the stage to talk about portable games. More stats, as the portable gaming segment of the market is growing each year. Female players are also on the rise, as Dunaway says in 2007, the genders nearly reached parity among gamers, with 28 percent of gamers women. She mentions Guitar Hero: On Tour Decades coming soon, as well as Spore Creatures for DS.
9:39 PDTHe throws to a trailer of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which shows players using the Wii as a lightsaber, possibly with 1:1 motion. Next is Rayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party, which will use the Balance Board for a skysurfing minigame, among other things. Third up is Call of Duty: World at War, which will have co-op play.
9:36 PDTNow Fils-Aime is lobbing softball hypotheticals at himself, asking if the Wii is the place for casual games, legendary franchises or new experiences, before saying all of the above.
9:36 PDT
The DS isn't exactly a sales slouch either.
9:36 PDTFils-Aime said third-party publishers are finding success on the Wii, with 19 different third-party games from 11 publishers exceeding sales of 400,000 units in the US alone.
9:35 PDT
The Wii's market momentum is accelerating.
9:34 PDTWhen the NPD numbers come out, Fils-Aime said Nintendo won't be surprised if the figures put the Wii overtakes the Xbox 360 to be the lifetime best-selling current-generation console in the US (though he didn't single out Microsoft's system by name).
9:33 PDTFils-Aime expects June's NPD numbers to show that the DS will reclaim its hardware sales title from the Wii. "There seems to be an unlimited number of people out there looking for a way to get into our game," Fils-Aime declares.
9:32 PDT
The Reg is getting paid.
9:31 PDTThe Pokemon franchise has now sold 180 million games.
9:31 PDTRFAMD = Reggie Fils-Aime Makin' Dollars.
9:31 PDTNow he talks about product life cycles, saying some expected 2007 would be the DS' peak year. However, 2008 sales are running 12 percent ahead of last year's. It's key franchises that sell systems, Fils-Aime says, and this spring it was Pokemon.
9:29 PDTFils-Aime comes to the stage and says Animal Crossing "complete with the WiiSpeak option" will be out by the end of the year. He talks numbers, with US retail sales of the Wii passing 10 million and DS sales passing 20 million.
9:28 PDT
Animal Crossing City Folk is due by year's end.
9:28 PDTHe talks about visiting other friends' Animal Crossing towns and playing with them (the screens show four players at once), or just checking out their worlds. The clip ends with the logo for Animal Crossing: CityFolk.
9:27 PDTNow he brings up WiiSpeak, a microphone that sits above the TV set and picks up the chatter of everyone in the room. They show it off with a demo of how it would work in a fishing minigame.
9:27 PDT
Katsuya Eguchi puts the new, microphone-enabled Wii Animal Crossing through its paces.
9:26 PDTHe's showing off the new Wii version of Animal Crossing, and talks about the town and the game's persistent 24-hour clock. There's a new "city" area with an auction house, as well as a Happy Room Academy where players can see what others are up to, check out a fashion design store, or go to a beauty salon and change their hairstyles (or put on masks to look like Mii's).
9:23 PDTIwata leaves the stage, as a clip with Animal Crossing creator Katsuya Eguchi explaining the genesis of the series.
9:22 PDTIwata says Nintendo always changes itself to be a pioneer "informing new paradigms." He wants fresh surprises, and hopes the crowd enjoys the ones Nintendo has in store today.
9:22 PDTHe starts to talk about innovation, and how it gets run into the ground more quickly when others imitate it, a jab at the competition that draws chuckles from the audience.
9:21 PDT
Iwata-san takes the stage.
9:21 PDTHe also says the industry is seeing a new form of social interaction. Last year he said he wanted to tear down the psychological barrier between gamers and non-gamers. Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit were good for that, he noted, but Guitar Hero III was the strongest evidence of that. (He also noted it sold more on Wii than any other system).
9:19 PDT
Shaun White needs more money, apparently...
9:19 PDTNow he brings up the expanding market, saying the old "common sense" view of the market was too linear. In particular, he said this has changed the seasonal nature of the industry. Where systems used to be holiday gifts, he now says it's more likely that customers were buying the systems for themselves throughout the year.
9:18 PDTHe brings up the internal teams that make Mario and Zelda games, saying they're both hard at work to bring such new titles to the Wii. On the other hand, he says Wii Sports and Wii Fit have been successful with many gamers for other reasons. Small games with small budgets can have a great audience.
9:17 PDTHe brings up the longevity of games these days, with Nintendogs, Brain Age, New Super Mario Bros., and Mario Kart DS appearing to be evergreen products. He also says players want more than just better graphics and more sophisticated content.
9:16 PDTOut comes Satoru Iwata, who reminisces about a time when people had a pessimistic view of Nintendo's future. He said people were just holding a common-sense view of the gaming market, and that even Nintendo employees couldn't have expected this much success just five years later. Specifically, he mentions the company's selling millions of "bathroom scales" (Balance Boards).
9:14 PDT
Cammie Dunaway and her Mii
9:14 PDTDunaway said the game would arrive "exclusively for Wii" by year's end. She must have been talking about the Balance Board-capable version of the game.
9:13 PDTDunaway steps onto the board to try the game herself. She emphasizes that she's never done this before, then takes a trip down the half-pipe with a handful of tricks and wipeouts.
9:11 PDTShaun demos his Balance Board-compatible Wii game live for the crowd, busting out some tricks and taking a nasty spill. The game fades out and he starts talking about how the board enhances the gameplay on the Wii.
9:10 PDTShe talks about her kids and trying to impress them, saying gaming is a much safer way to appeal cool than something like snowboarding. Apparently she broke her wrist trying that. Still, she said she wouldn't let it take the smile off her face or make her give up. She thought she just needed help from a friend. And here comes Shaun White.
9:08 PDTOut comes Nintendo exec Cammie Dunaway for her first E3 presentation. She notes that she isn't Reggie Fils-Aime, but says she's happy to be here in place of her boss.
9:06 PDTThe house music fades and the show picks up where last year's Nintendo conference left off, with a video montage of diverse people enjoying Nintendo's products.
9:01 PDTAs posh a place as the Kodak Theater is, it's perhaps surprisingly situated in an (admittedly upscale) outdoor mall. Also situated in the mall is one of Atari founder Nolan Bushnell's upstart uWink interactive entertainment restaurants.
8:57 PDTThe early hour of the event hasn't done much to temper the attendees' chatter. A bevy of familiar faces work the crowd and catch up with contacts as bloggers hammer out last-minute connection issues.
8:51 PDTIt doesn't appear as if Nintendo wanted a packed house for its invite-only event, as the Kodak's three stacked balcony sections are all but vacant. As people find their seats, the requisite techno blares over the loudspeakers while pictures of Wii and DS players fade in and out on the stage backdrop.
8:47 PDTGaming press have been flocking to the Kodak Theater since 7 a.m., and with about 15 minutes to go until the event's scheduled tip-off, the crowd is buzzing in anticipation and the choice seats are filling up quickly.
