Here's my highlights, spoilered for those who haven't watched it yet.

Hey Puzzles and Dragons looks pretty neat! Isn't this the game that is taking Japan by storm? Then there's Pokemon Shuffle, why not bundle all three together?

Metroid Prime Trilogy Available? That will hopefully drop the price on the Wii version, but probably not.

Mario Party Amiibo?!

Splatoon starting to look very very nice. May is a nice time to have a release for me.

Xenoblade Chronicles X - 2015

Project TREASURE!? - Anyone have any insights on this one?

Gunman Clive 2 - Will be great, loved the first one.

The 3D Series of Sega is going to break my wallet. There wasn't one game that I wouldn't pick up. It'd be awesome if they made a physical release for this.

Code Name Steam: Looks awesome.

Monster Hunter 4 - Looking PSOish, BMF are you in for some multiplayer monster hunting?

Other than that, the New 3DS does look pretty nice. Really was hoping that Navy Blue version launched. How on earth you release the new console, without an AC Adapter? That really seems like a blunder.
