9:38 a.m: 5.6 million game downloads on Virtual Console. 112 titles available.
9:35 a.m.: Reggue back on stage. He's talking about Nintendo online now. Another montage of media whoring, this time centered on DS' online capabilities. Mario Kart mentioned -- but, of course, it's the old game. They actually called out the horrible Opera Browser for DS. That thing is bad.
"Today, five and a half million DS owners have fired up their Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection," says Reggie. Notes that Nintendo's service is free.
9:32 a.m. Looks fabulous. Very smooth. Running 60 frames. Very detailed textures for a Wii game. Particles look nice. You can gesture to trigger different visor views. You simply hold down the minus button and then motion in differnt directions. You can also now lock-on to enemies but retain the ability to manually aim, too. Very, very cool.
Talking about Hyper Mode. You inject an energy tank. Samus becomes devestating, but it comes at a price. If you stay in Hyper Mode too long, you will become corrupted. We want this game now.
9:31 a.m. Metroid Prime 3 demo! We are in love.
9:30 a.m. Trinen continues to demo Phantom Hourglass. "It's one of the fastest-selling Zelda games they've ever had," he says of the title's recent Japanese release. The title looks good. We already have impressions of the Japanese build so check them out.
