So far the most exciting things to happen are the Soul Calibur 2 news, and the newly released pics of Zelda, Resident Evil 0, and 1080 White Storm. Jedi Outcast is announced for GCN and Xbox. Rare seems to be sticking with Nintendo... In other news, Full Throttle 2 has been announced for PC. (YAY!)
The Soul Calibur 2 incident is quite funny. Earlier, Sony announced that SC2 was going to be PS2 exclusive. A couple of hours later, Nintendo had it's own conference, in which Soul Calibur 2 was announced for GameCube. Namco verified Nintendo's story. I find it funny to see Sony so desperate.
Zelda. It is a gorgeous game. What more can be said? Well, GBA connectivity is confirmed, (Most likely linking to Zelda: 4 Swords), and the combat system from OoT is still mostly intact with some refinements. You can now pick up an enemy's weapon. Apparently this is an important part of the game.
If you want to see it in motion, check this out.

Resident Evil 0 footage was shown also, but in fewer numbers than Zelda. Here's some screens.
Here's some shots for the 2D fighter fans among us.
That's all for now, but I'll get some more stuff later today. It looks to be a good year for Nintendo indeed.
[EDIT] added Jedi Outcast news, and fixed the zelda pics.
