It sounds like alot of games are having issues with the controller, but look back at the DS. 95% of the launch titles were basically crap. It wasn't until Nintendogs that the DS really picked up, but now the DS is becoming not only the greatest handheld, but one of the greatest systems in history with new and very promising games. For those who are losing faith in the Wii, just remember the ugly DSling that grew into a beautiful DSwan.

I can't wait to see which Wii game Joystiq will cover next! /sarcasm

Seriously, though, I love the coverage Joystiq. I'm just hoping that the upcoming days will be filled with a little more than Wii titles.

Again the third parties have some polishing to do with the controls

This will launch in 2007 as Sega mentioned.
For some reason, after Zelda and Mario i am expecting great things of Wild Fire.
At last Sonic RUNS.

#4 - Sony does have playable demos. Joystiq can choose which games to preview first. It just so happens they choose Wii.

actually... since there's a long line for the Wii section, they probably just went through and played all the Wii demos they wanted to play so that they wouldn't waste time by leaving and then waiting in line again...

Btw where there any cell phone users or other bluetooth devices in abundance or did you have one on you turned on when you were using the wiimote?

Hate to tell you but that can interfere with the wiimote. They did tell the audience to turn off their wireless devices at the press conferance.

I've seen the video of this running, and though it looks good visually, it also looks super awkward to control (unless the guy playing it was a total spasmo) - it seems to control like a cross between the touch screen special stages from Sonic Rush and the Sonic DS E3 demo from a couple of years back (and did anyone else notice the similarities in the visual styles?)

It looks fun in an on-rails arcade kind of way, but the next-gen Sonic looks more like the Sonic game Sega fans having been hoping for - awesome graphics, tight control and exploration.

Either that, or Shadow will roll over us in his Humvee and RUIN the whole thing.

with all the geeks there are bound to be tons of cellphones and bluetooth devices.
not to mention that there are a few more than 4 controllers in the area.
