In an odd move, the console leader for this generation is deciding to skip the annual Leipzig gaming convention that normally is held in Germany. The good guys over at The Toonki had the following to report:

It looks like their won’t be any news from the show in Germany later this year, from Nintendo anyway. It’s kind of sad, because the last few years this has been a pretty good venue for the Japanese giant.

My Thoughts:
In a way I am saddened by this announcement but also intrigued at the same time. If Nintendo is deciding to skip this event, it makes me wonder what they have planned for this year’s E3. Let’s hope it’s BIG! What do you guys think?

In case you missed it gamers, earlier this week, we here at Gameonnintendo ran a Star Soldier contest giving gamers a chance to create their own WiiWare title and pitch their creations to our editors. After much deliberation I am proud to announce we have a winner!

I would sincerely like to thank all who entered and if you didn’t win, stay tuned….Another contest is coming! Check out the winning idea, after the break.

**Your prize is on the way via Wii Connect**

Below are the first screens of Family Trainer that is headed to Nintendo Wii. The title looks like a decent play if you have a ton of friends over…What do you guys think? Here’s hoping for some Wii Balance board support!
