It's happening right now, so me being the nice person that I am shall update this topic with what's going on.
Tis all taken from gamerfeed.com
A Nintendo representative has taken the stage. He is going over sales and whatnot. He just made a joke.
"Mario will never start shooting hookers."
-- Nintendo games video --
Mario Kart Double Dash being shown. The animation is looking very smooth. Now, Pikmin 2 looks very similar to Pikmin, but with more enemies.
Pokemon Pinball Ruby and Sapphire for GBA. Looks like a good pinball game. Now showing Wario Ware Inc. with all those little mini games.
Super Mario Brothers 3 is coming out as Super Mario Advance 4. Big cheers to that. Now Billy Hatcher with big enemies, smooth motion. Looks nice.
Donkey Kong Country for GBA looks just like the SNES version. Wario World for GameCube looks really good with lots of action, looks like a 3rd person adventure.
Star Fox, you can see third- and first-person action. It looks very cool, almost like a 3D Contra, looks very smooth, like the 64 version.

Soul Calibur II is this year, Pac Man hopefully this year, and Star Fox next year. Also, look for one more Zelda connectivity title on the floor tomorrow.
Now they're bringing out Hideo Kojima of Metal Gear Solid fame. They will talk about the title they are working on.

No gameplay yet, just some drawings. The game is based on a nuclear genetic crisis. Now they're showing gameplay, it looks better than the PS2 version, a lot better. It's hard to tell what's going on. It's a trailer with ingame graphics but not showing too much gameplay. Terrorists are threatening the White House with a nuclear attack. This is made by Silicon Knights they just showed. They're not really showing a lot of gameplay yet, a lot of dialogue though.

The exclusive 1st Person shooter sounds pretty intresting.
Great Stuff, cheers Tilt.
Interesting, noting that awe-inspiring so far. Keep the news coming though, nice one.
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords for GameCube just announced. It's a GBA game you play on the GameCube, and it looks just like Link to the Past.
You have to have a GBA to play it, but it's played on GameCube. Every time you enter a house or dungeon, the action there will take place on the GBA.
Basically, it's a GCN game with the GBA as a controller, and it will be playable tomorrow.
Now, Miyamoto's saying how he's a huge Pac Man fan, and he's made a game for GameCube. He hasn't gotten Namco's approval, but he has just introduced Mr. Atawani from Namco, the creator of Pac Man, to ask for approval.
It's a four player GCN game, but it looks like they also have GBAs hooked up. You can play it with the GBA as a controller. The GBA version is the same as the original game. You can use the GBA or GCN controllers. The name is Pac-Man for GameCube, tentative title. He just asked for appoval, and he has approved it.
The GCN is being played now, seems three players are ghosts and one person is Pac Man. Whoever is using the GCN pad sees it onscreen in 3D, and whoever is PacMan with the GBA sees it as the old school Pac Man. Whoever is using the GBA gets to see the whole screen. Whoever catches Pac Man then becomes Pac Man.

Shigeru Miyamoto has just taken the stage. He's about to show us something. He says we're very lucky to be here this morning. Now his translator is coming out here.
Now, right after his translator, EA's and The Sims' Will Wright has come out. They are developing two versions of the Sims, a totally new version for the GBA and the new expanded version for GameCube. There will be connectivity.
You can visit your town on the GBA to the GameCube, or vice versa. You can share your people with other gamers. Two GBAs can be connected on the same system for sharing.
Now the EA President has come out, and he has announced Bond, Medal of Honor, Madden, Lord of the Rings, SSX 3, NBA Live, a few EA Sports games, and more coming to GameCube.
