Nintendo bossman Reggie Fils-Aime kicked off the company's media summit yesterday with a staggering list of impressive sales figures and feats, illustrating the total domination of the Nintendo DS, Wii, and the company's first-party software.

That's good news for Nintendo, obviously, but the better news for gamers was that the company will ship three of its biggest, most highly anticipated games before the end of the year. During Reggie's Nintendo Media Summit presentation, he confirmed that Super Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros. Brawl and The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass would all arrive before December 31, 2007.

This follows close on the heels of the announcement that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption would this summer, making it a very good year for Nintendo fans. It's also going to be an expensive year. I'm now thinking to myself, "I will work more hours to buy these games." Michael McWhertor
