“[Nintendo may] steal the show with its upcoming new handheld (scheduled for release by March 2011), the 3DS.” – Wedbush Morgan Securities analyst Michael Pachter

“The only price cut that we expect is for Nintendo’s DS in the U.S. (following recent price cuts in the UK and Japan). Nintendo is unlikely to drop the price of the Wii below $199 as it recently introduced a new bundle that includes Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, and the Wii Motion Plus. Similarly, Sony is unlikely to announce a PS3 price cut, as we believe a price reduction below $299 may lead to a loss on each unit sold. Microsoft is not expected to drop the price of the Xbox 360 below $299 either; instead, we expect the company to bundle the Natal motion controller with a redesigned (slim and black) console.” – Wedbush Morgan Securities analyst Michael Pachter

The 3DS is definitely one of the biggest mysteries of E3. Even though we know it exists and that it can play games in 3D without glasses, a flood of details are expected to be unveiled next week. If the system turns out to be innovative like past Nintendo handhelds and a few noteworthy titles are shown, gaming fans will probably look back fondly at this year’s conference.

Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
Okamiden
Bionic Commando Rearmed 2
Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes
Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective
Dead Rising 2
Dead Rising 2: Case Zero
MotoGP 09/10

In addition to the titles listed above, Capcom said that they have a few surprises up their sleeves as well.

“Given the track record of ‘hardcore’ Wii exclusives, I would bet that sales are underwhelming. It’s a funny thought to resurrect a 10 year-old brand – maybe longer – and keep it a Nintendo exclusive. It is unlike Activision to do an exclusive, and I am particularly surprised that they would do it with Goldeneye. I completely agree that most of the original audience is pretty hardcore, and think a Rare game on the 360 would have a better chance. Perhaps this is all due to the James Bond license, but… a Wii exclusive is odd.” – Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter

Even though the sales of the game will be questionable, the remake would probably have a better chance of obtaining success over titles like as Little King’s Story and Dead Space Extraction. The IP is slightly more recognizable, and the peripheral – if what we saw is the real deal – could push sales at least a bit. Although, the odd thing about all of this is that the game hasn’t even been confirmed yet!
