Alright, so I'm here LIVE at a coffee shop in the farm town of Ottawa, Illinois. That's right, I'm nowhere near any Keynotes, but that won't stop us from delivering E3 News! I'm currently compiling a list of venues to see the Nintendo Press Conference due to start at 9 am PST. I hear they may have Grandma Mii's deliver the Keynote....

I'm a bit intrigued (none / 0)

with the release of Tecmo Bowl on the DS. I logged some hours playing that years ago in college. I would love to see that game come to the 360's arcade.
