yeah . . . that'd be cool if some of the NY Times info was inaccurate -- particularly the price. There most likely will be corroboration or correction some time today as Nintendo has a big event planned (the biggest for the month) and they already said that the price and release date would be announced in Sept. Today is the most likely date for it.
I was able to attend this event a few days ago.
Games I got to play, at least demo versions:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Rayman: The demo I played involved shooting Sam an Max looking bunnies with plungers in a wild west setting
Pool: It was pool
DuckHunt?: Well, it was skeet shooting...with ducks.
Zelda-Twilight Princess: One word. Awesome
