TGS 2006 "New Theme May Spell Success" (8-29)

So what's the word for the coming of the Q4 2006 of Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft? "New Excitement. New Sensations. A New Generation." With consoles not just for gaming anymore it will be interesting to see what the show has in store for the future of technology.

Sony: Will Blu-Ray be showcased? Will the tilt-sensitive controls still the show along with 20+ games announced?

Nintendo: Will the Wii wow those at the show? What does Nintendo's trademark franchises have in store for the competition.

Microsoft: Will the lower cost of next-gen slide the fight of winning sales in their direction? Will the 360 have a list of Japanese titles to define what the system can do?

Portable
PSP: Will the new sleek design be showcased to replace the 2005 model?

DS: Can Nintendo WI-FI and tuner software be the key to get even more interested in this immensely popular handheld?

With about 2000 available booths it will clearly be the year of excitement.
