E3 2009 - Nintendo press conference liveblog!
It's time. Nintendo will take to the E3 stage in Los Angeles today for its 2009 keynote, and the world's watching with stern eyes.
The Kyoto monster came unstuck at the US show last year with a weak program centred on Wii Music, and there's a lot to prove this time out. The hardcore want blood. Mario and Zelda blood. Wii Fit Plus blood. The thrill of the megaton. The flash's heat. The desperate stench of plumber crotch.
If the sum total of today's showing is Cammie "Pegs" Dunaway throwing a virtual Frisbee for a dog, there'll be ugly scenes.
When? The fanboy massive holds its breath from 9.00am PST/5.00pm BST/6.00pm CET. Get our liveblog after the break.
If you're after streaming video, try IGN, Gametrailers, Gamespot or G4.
Remember: the Sony conference follows directly after at 11.00am PST/7.00pm BST/8.00pm CET.
