So, Codephoenix have you even looked at this, or is it all coming from Gamerfeed? Here is the link http://www.nintendo.com/e32k3/index.jsp for those of you who want to check it out. They had some other tittles I havn't seen you mention like Pokemon Box, Pokemon Channel, are two that popped out at me. Then there is something called Giftpia. Looks interesting to say the least.

Giftpia:
Giftpia offers gamers a totally new RPG experience: no combat, no weapons, no armor—and no clichés!
When Pockle oversleeps and misses his Coming-of-Age Ceremony, he finds himself in deep trouble. According to the laws of his island, he has committed a terrible crime and the courts have chucked him into prison. But that's not all! Because he's a minor, they've even blurred out his face so no one can see him. Now, he's promised to pay an incredible sum of money to the island's mayor to hold another Coming-of-Age Ceremony. If he really wants to become a true adult, he'll have to learn some responsibility and help the many islanders.

Features include:

Experience an offbeat, colorful and stylish alternative to mainstream RPGs. Your island is filled with oddball citizens in need of your help to make enough money to pay for a new Coming-of-Age Ceremony.

Use your freedom to decide how you want to play and what you want to do. There are dozens of quests, odd jobs and mini-games. You can go fishing, listen to the local radio station, fix up the town or give the locals a hand.

Avoid the dreaded sleep ghosts! If Pockle stays up too late, sleep ghosts come and haunt him until he finally passes out. The more tasks you accomplish, the more mature Pockle becomes and the later he is allowed to stay out.

Keep Pockle well fed to stave off hunger, too-hunger reduces health, and if he starves, the game ends.

Pokemon Box:
The Pokémon Box is the ultimate commodity for the Poké-maniac.
Players search, sort and handle other management functions to organize and display the Pokémon they've collected from their Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire Game Boy Advance games. An added bonus: Pokémon Box provides the ability to play Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire on the television screen.

Features include:

Players can save up to 1,500 Pokémon to a special Memory Card for Nintendo GameCube, more than three times as many Pokémon as those that can be stored in a Pokémon Ruby or Pokémon Sapphire game pak. Pokémon Box provides a solution for players who have captured Pokémon in their Game Boy Advance games but don't have enough space to keep them.

Using this software, players can experience Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire on their television screen. As they capture more Pokémon, they can store them on to a Nintendo GameCube Memory Card (Playing Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire on the television screen supports single player mode).

Players need a Game Boy Advance system, Pokémon Ruby or Pokémon Sapphire, Game Boy Advance Game Link cable, and Nintendo GameCube system to use Pokémon Box.

Pokemon Channel:
Pokémon have taken over the airwaves!
Players get to make great friends with Pikachu. Pokémon Channel is a highly innovative and diverse game that has enough substance to keep even the most avid Poké-maniac entertained for hours and hours. In Pokémon Channel, the Pokémon television station has lost segments of their most popular show. Players must find and collect the clips and return them to the station. To aid them in their quest, players call upon the help of Pikachu. Once all the pieces are collected, the show will be restored and ready for broadcast. Everyone can enjoy watching TV with Pikachu and find other ways to play with Pikachu. They can communicate with Pikachu by providing advice, or take Pikachu to a grassy field or forest and get to know other Pokémon.

Features include:

Players explore the beaches, mountains and woods of the Pokémon world-even make friends with a wild Pikachu. Throughout the game, players watch Pokémon- themed television programs, including never-before-seen DVD quality animation featuring the popular Pichu Bros. Other in-game television programs include a quiz show, news channel, shopping channel and much more!

When players wish to "stop and smell the roses," they can choose different scenes from the in-game television programs and color them in with a paint tool. Finished artwork can then be displayed in Smeargle's art gallery.

Players also can find and collect 3-D Pokémon "NiceCard" lenticulars and play a virtual version of Pokémon Mini.
