Nintendo Wii will come with Opera browser
Nintendo's next-generation Wii video game console will feature the Opera browser, Opera Software announced on Wednesday.
Wii users will browse the Internet using their consoles, navigating sites via the new Wii remote controller, a two-handed, motion-sensitive system that allows players to mimic actions on-screen with the movement of their hands.
"For our Wii console launch in 2006, we required a browser that was fast and secure, with support for the latest standards, including AJAX," said Genyo Takeda, senior managing director and general manager of Nintendo's Integrated Research & Development Division.
Earlier this year, Oslo, Norway-based Opera and Nintendo announced a partnership to deliver a version of the Opera browser for Nintendo's DS handheld. The Nintendo DS browser is scheduled for release in Japan this summer.
The Wii, expected to come out in the fourth quarter of this year, will go head-to-head with Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3.

Nintendo E3 Briefing
Continuing Nintendo’s long tradition of developing highly innovative products that redefine the standards for the industry, Wii (pronounced “we”) will allow players to “feel” games in a way never known before: the adrenaline of a tennis match, the thrill of making an airplane bank or the rush of gripping the wheel of a speeding truck. The control scheme is simple enough that everyone, no matter what their prior gaming experience, can use it with ease and will want to try it.

“Not only is Wii compelling to current game players, but it also will entice new players with new experiences,” explains Nintendo President Satoru Iwata. “To expand the total number of game players, we must make our experience both friendlier and more compelling. With Wii, it is.”

Nintendo Unveil Super Smash Bros Brawl
Nintendo unveiled a spectacular video of Super Smash Bros.® Brawl for the company's upcoming Wii™ console. The amazing footage also revealed a variety of new Nintendo characters who will be playable in the game, including Meta Knight, the sword-wielding nemesis of Kirby™; Pit, the angelic archer from Kid Icarus®; Zero Suit Samus, the powerful Metroid® series heroine minus her versatile armor; and Wario™, who demonstrated a noxious attack of gastronomic proportions.

Walled-off Wiis draw crowds at Nintendo booth
Before the E3 show even opened, the line of people with exhibitor badges waiting to see the Wii was snaking around the perimeter of the booth. There wasa sign warning attendees that the wait in line is an hour from that point, but it served as little deterrence. The Nintendo faithful were lined up to that sign, out of the booth entirely, down the aisle, and then around the back of the publisher's exhibit space.

Helping them to pass the time were a number of monitors along the wall of the booth that show people who talk to and interact with the attendees, waving to them, explaining the uses of the Wii controller and the like.
