Yea been following the Keynote over on Engadget, dont hold your breath over Nintendo making any huge announcements (they are hampered by a major stock transaction that is pending in Japan).

Here's a funny little story from before the Keynote was about to start:

Phil Harrison is sitting in the front row

Reggie is standing off consulting with people, posing for pictures, etc.

A kid in the front row shouted at Reggie "REGGIE! You gotta kick some ass and take some names!"

"Like who?!" Reggie shouted back

"Phil Harrison, FRONT ROW!" The kid says

"I think we already did that" Says Reggie

The nearby crowd laughs, as is appropriate.

Main points i picked up on were:

• Nintendo are working on a new Wii Channel that will allow people to compete in popularity contests with their Miis.
• Super Mario Galaxy will definitely be released this year.

Wow. The speech was boring to read. Feel sorry for those that attended in person and expected to get "something".
