hi dudes, I recieved an e-mail from the Nintendo newsletter and well i think this could be useful for those nintendo fans, i'm posting some new i've got from the E3.

Metroid Prime 2, officially known now as Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the story so far goes like this
Hunted by a mysterious entity and a warring race called the Ing, Samus Aran must explore the light and dark worlds of this doomed planet to discover secrets and augment her suit's weapons and abilities.

And now, for the first time in the history of the celebrated Metroid franchise, up to four players can battle each other as they search for weapons, grapple across ceilings, and turn into Morph Balls to make their escapes. there's a video and screenshots as well.

The legend of Zelda: The four swords adventures for GC. I'ts just and adapted game of teh original four swords. The story goes like this
The Legend continues on Nintendo GameCube in an all-new epic adventure for one to four players. Fusing cooperative and competitive action, Four Swords Adventures features a unique gameplay system that incorporates both the television and the Game Boy Advance.

When you enter a building or dive into a cave, your character switches from the TV to the Game Boy Advance. When you emerge, the frantic action shifts back to the big screen. To thwart Vaati's nefarious forces, you'll have to master new skills and techniques never before seen in the Legend of Zelda series.

StarFox for GC

I's the follow up to the last adventure on dinosaur planet. It has pending the official name
the preview goes like this: Several years after disaster was narrowly averted on Dinosaur Planet, Lylat Central Command detects a new threat spreading throughout the galaxy.

The Star Fox team is sent in to eradicate this growing menace, but what begins as a standard combat mission quickly takes a dramatic turn. Legendary team members Fox McCloud, Slippy Toad, Peppy Hare, and Falco Lombardi join forces to form the most formidable team in the history of this celebrated series: the Star Fox Armada!

Features
Soar through space and attack an armada of strike fighters in your Arwing
Roll over hostile terrain in a heavily-armored Landmaster Tank, or bring the hurt to the enemy on foot
Play missions solo, join the fight with up to three other players, or engage in four-player split screen battles
Play wingman to another player, riding on the wing of the Arwing or side of the Landmaster Tank, and blast enemies while the pilot controls the vehicle
Powerful weapons including automatic blasters, sniper rifles, and shoulder-launched rockets
Bottom Line
Star Fox returns Fox McCloud to his space ace roots in this classic aerial shooter reminiscent of the beloved Star Fox 64. Get ready for an unforgettable romp through the galaxy.


Paper Mario 2 (this one goes for you cartmansp), well the follow up to the original series.Time passes, the pages turn ... and a new chapter unfolds in an unfamiliar land! Get ready for a two-dimensional role-playing adventure for the ages as Mario returns to paper form in pursuit of a threat unlike any he's ever faced.


Timing Action Commands help you dodge or inflict damage, and impress the crowd to give you power for super attacks
Fold into a paper airplane and take to the air, turn sideways to slip through narrow passages, and roll into a tube to bounce to safety
This time around, more emphasis is placed on the paper abilities of Mario and his friends. He can turn sideways to slip through cracks, fold into a paper airplane to fly, roll into a tube, and much more. He can also use tons of items like hammers and thunderbolts.


Advance Wars Underfire: The weries finally hits the GC, Advance Wars makes its way from the Game Boy Advance to the Nintendo GameCube where the turn-based strategy favorite transforms into a fast-paced, 3-D, real-time combat action game.

Players take to the battlefield with dozens of soldiers, organizing them into small squads and directing them into the fray. While you can only command a small number of soldiers at a time, the ones not under your direct control don't just stand at ease-- they'll respond to enemy attacks and protect any areas to which they've been deployed. Give the orders, and your soldiers will follow behind you wherever you lead or attack the targets you select.


I'll try to update it as soon as i get more e-mails with info, Sorry ut no MK:D still announcd for GameCube, Hope you like it

The Advance Wars, Paper Mario 2, and Legend of Zelda are things that people only have ideas about, and wish they'd come true. That's the great thing about this years games! We're all getting what we want, this rules so much.

Oh and a question. What's the thing that makes Metroid Prime so fun? I've heard raving about it, but never actually known what's so great?

As a nintendo freak, i'm greatly looking forward to all of those. However, i'm literally dieing for paper mario 2. I absolutely cant wait to play it. Super Mario games are PWN4G3.

Hopefully we'll be hearing stuff on mario party 6, mario tennis GC, and super mario 128.

PWN4G3 is simply and exagerated version of pwn. Pwn, is net lingo for own. It started out as a misspell and just caught on like wildfire.

Anyway, Nintendo is looking good this E3. I'm still waiting on RE4 from the big N...Also saw a little segment earlier on the next Nintendo handheld along with the PSP, both look awesome, and are on my wishlist. Oh and while on the subject, has anyone else seen the next version of the GBA SP with the classic NES gamepad? There's another thing that I'm going to have to snatch up...Damn I need a job real soon, lol.

The Metroid news is old and so is the Paper Mario news, well some of it. It's nice to hear about Star Fox once again! I hope they've improved the graphics. I nver played the original Paper Mario, so this second one will be the first time I experience it. I can't wait to play all three of these games!

And cartmansp, I think I'm going to cry! The Zelda game looks amazing! Link looks awesome! OMG! grin
