Perhaps E3 will reveal a few more Wii titles for the American market worth caring about, but so far, Nintendo of America's lineup is woefully bare, with just the aforementioned Wii Play sequel and a new Mystery Case Files game being the only previously-unknown games announced.

Nintendo's been keeping track of the public's reactions to the 3DS -- everything from the system itself to the sales numbers to the games. Iwata expressed concern that the company hasn't done as much to really drive home the value and the overall coolness of the device (in their eyes, of course). Besides encouraging people to really utilize the depth slider if you can't process the 3D properly, Iwata shared his intent to get people to want to buy a 3DS now rather than later, by more properly communicating the extra features of the device besides just "3D" and "new games."

From our own anecdotal evidence, it seems that AR Games and Face Raiders make a crucial first impression on people who actually try a 3DS, but the launch games haven't made quite the same impact. In America, TV ads for the 3DS seem more focused on Steel Diver and Super Street Fighter IV, and though those are fine games, they're not exactly the big hooks Nintendo needs in the short term.

In the interim, Nintendo is still planning on pushing the major 3DS firmware update in May, which will launch the 3DS web browser and the eShop download service, which will feature a free , the previously-announced , and perhaps more.
