Nintendo E3 Round-Up: Wii Fit Plus, Wii Motion Plus, and Mario
Nintendo's E3 conference just ended, and it gave us some cool glimpses into the company's future. It wasn't nearly as much of a 'blockbuster' conference as Microsoft's, and the Wii Vitality Meter certainly isn't going to compete with Project Natal for hype, but they had a lot of cool announcements nonetheless. Here's what we can look forward to in Nintendo's future.

Nintendo E3 Round-Up: Guns, Zelda, and Wii Fit Plus.
Nintendo is an impressive company. They've been at the forefront of video gaming since the early days, and they've managed to maintain a position as a leader in the industry for years and years. Now in 2009 their flagship console is the king of the castle, and the rumors we're hearing about Nintendo's E3 plans make us think it'll be staying there for a long time to come.
First up, we can look forward to seeing the WiiFit Plus launch this E3. If you already own a WiiFit, don't worry; the WiiFit Plus will be bundled seperately from the board. Nintendo doesn't want to screw over 17 million WiiFit customers by making them buy the same peripherals twice. These rumors come courtesy of Macquarie Research, an industry analysis firm that has just released a big ol' E3 report.

Weak Dollar Reason for Wii and Wii Fit Shortage
The LA Times ran a story yesterday about the fact that the Wii Fit is sold out in the United States. The Wii fitness accessory is as hard to get as a Wii console. In that article analyst Michael Pachter is quoted saying that Nintendo shipped 4 times more Wii Fit systems to Europe because of the strong Euro.
I mentioned back in March already that the current 3rd party price of the Wii represents the Wii price in Euro. Nintendo is just making tons more money in Europe than selling stuff for weak Dollars in the United States.

Wii Fit Release to be Turning Point of ongoing Wii Shortage?
The Nintendo Wii is still a hard find in the United States. There seems to be no Wii supply problem elsewhere, just in the U.S.
Wired reports that a Wedbush Morgan Securities analyst said this week that Nintendo plans the largest marketing campaign in the companies history to promote Wii Fit. Along with the campaign Nintendo is supposed to increase the monthly Wii supply by 150,000 consoles.
The Wii Fit release is on May 19th. Comments made by Gamestop this week put a big question mark on the analyst statements. Gamestop sees the Wii supply shortage continues for at least another 6 months.
