So Nintendo took the classic Super Mario Bros. that everybody loves, and they made something new with it. Basically, this is Super Mario Bros., but you can play with 4 people, including yourself, all at one time. The graphics are updated as well. It’s pretty much the same as New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS, which was a great game.

I think this game could actually be pretty fun. Having 4 people run through the levels of Super Mario Bros., all at once, fighting over power-ups and coins, throwing each other around, battling for the top score. It’s almost like a side scrolling Super Smash Bros.

The game definitely looks like it has potential. Check out the trailer and see for yourself.

This is the latest trailer for Capcom’s Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, from E3 2009. This game is the followup to Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, and takes us through the story of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil: Code Veronica.

The graphics are updated and the game is “on rails”, but watching this trailer just gives me a nostalgia attack. Growing up during the “Playstation era”, Resident Evil, especially Resident Evil 2, is one of my favorite games of all time. Sure, it’s not a remake, like many fans want, but it’s enough…for now.

The Darkside Chronicles hits the Nintendo Wii sometime towards the end of the year!

This is easily my favorite announcement from today’s Nintendo press conference at E3 2009. Not because it’s the best looking thing at E3, but because it’s the only thing from Nintendo that really got my attention.

Sure, it looks like Super Mario Galaxy 1. I’ve seen a lot of talk on the internet about how it’s just a recycled game. Well, I don’t think that’s true. There were 3 “Super Mario Bros.” games, there were 2 “Super Mario World” games. Why can’t there be 2 “Super Mario Galaxy” games? It’s exciting if you think about it. This is the first true, full sequel to a Mario game, on the same system, since the Nintendo NES with Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, and 3. We all know Super Mario World 2 on the Super Nintendo wasn’t a true sequel.

What I’m really excited about? I’m sure you can guess it…Yoshi! Our favorite mountable little green dinosaur thing is back! I don’t know about you guys, but Yoshi has always secretly been my favorite thing in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is set for release sometime in 2010. By “sometime”, I mean anytime from January 1st, 2010 through December 31st, 2010. The wait is on!

Metroid Other M was announced at E3, during Nintendo’s press conference earlier today. It’s the trailer that ended the show, and was probably had the biggest crowd reaction. Even more than all the little DS games, the finger peripheral, and all the many Mario games.

Check out the trailer and wait for Metroid Other M, which is due sometime in 2010!

Yet another great looking sandbox game. It’s almost like GTA4, but instead of running around Liberty City, you’re able to roam and explore Nazi occupied Paris. Is it just me, or are there not enough sandbox games? I love being able to go where I want, do what I want to do, kill anybody I want to kill…Okay, that might have sounded a little psycho.

Check out the trailer above and watch the amazing looking gameplay footage below!

Watch and enjoy the cinematic trailer for Star Wars: The Old Republic! This is the upcoming MMO from Bioware and Lucas Arts. Bioware, the company that brought us amazing Star Wars games in the last with Knights of the Old Republic, and Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords!

I know there is no actual gameplay footage in this video, but I couldn’t care less. This is enough for me…for now at least. Like many other things at E3, there are not many details available yet or a release date, but you can be sure to see them here, once they’re available. What we do know so far is that the story takes place before all 6 movies; around 3,500 years before then to be more precise.

Sit back, watch the trailer, and wait. I know I’ll be waiting. There’s nothing I’d like more than to play an MMO with millions of other people, in the Star Wars universe.
