Needless to say, I’m excited

Very, very excited about Mario Kart for the Wii.

I’m wondering if the remote as a steering-wheel mechanic will enhance or detract from my general 3D Mario Kart Badassery.

There is a nice little preview to get your mouth watering if it wasn’t already from E3 this year when they announced it.

This was easily my favorite E3 announcement, and I barely paid any attention to anything else.

God Bless Nintendo in this thy month of Metroid.

Now, if I can only get Lauren to let me play Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. She has vetoed it thus far because she (rightly) criticizes the inability to save and quit playing at any time.

I actually found myself crying out “When LORD, WHEN!” many times when playing Metroid Prime 2 and wanting to just quit and save.

It literally took over an hour once just to make my way back to a save station from where I was, so we could leave.

Maybe 3 will improve this somehow. At any rate, it being the first really good looking FPS for the Wii, I think it will be nigh-impossible to pass it up.
