Straight from the mouth of Reggie...

Between Nintendogs + Cats and Pilotwings, those two franchises, either on the original DS or on other legacy systems like the NES or Super NES, have sold tens of millions of copies. So, those two franchises have a lot of strength all by themselves. Steel Diver is a brand new experience, and from a compelling standpoint, we think it's awfully compelling.

Mario, Zelda, all of those titles are coming. And, from our perspective, we like to launch titles when they're ready. And so they'll be ready, they'll be ready soon. Just not in that initial time period of late March to early June. So for games like Kid Icarus, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, http://www.zeldainformer.com/2011/01/reggie-has-spoken-no-ocarina-of-time-3d-until-after-e3.html#Mario Kart - those games we'll show more information about at E3, and certainly they'll launch after E3.

So it looks like the only first party games besides Nintendogs + Cats, Steel Diver, and Pilotwings for 3DS that might come before E3 are Mario Sports Mix and Skyward Sword. And that last one had BETTER come out before E3.

I'm not that concerned about this. I want Nintendo to take their own sweet time on these. I want them to make them good, and not rush them because people want them ASAP. As long as it's this year, I'm pretty much fine with it.
