This just hyped me to unbelievable levels.
Short for Nintendo directly into your veins.
Its a newish initiative by Nintendo where they have web broadcasts of announcements and such so that they dont always have to wait for big events. Tommorrows will be Iwata discussing Wii U Hardware and concepts

I don't want to live in a world where Iwata doesn't have the best hair in an image.

Thanks dude. I hope they don't spoil any E3 surprises. Nintendo's E3 conferences are like Christmas in June for me.
From what they have said it seems like they are just aiming to get the Hardware talk out of the way so when Monday comes along and Ubisoft/EA demo stuff on the Wii U there isnt confusion.
Tuesday should be the game day primarily.
Hard to say really. Iwata could be a boss and English it up since it is for E3.

I hope so, I love Iwata's English.

It is going to be in English.
From their Japanese Nintendo Direct site:
"French, German, Spanish, Dutch, Italian, Portugese, and Russain are captioned."
No mention of either English or Japanese, so the two may run concurrently.

Reggiedorf is disturbing.
Surprised no one has caught this yet....
E3 is one week away and that means that anticipation for the show is simply boiling! As you now know and the Paul Gale Network has announced, Nintendo has blown the collective minds of the gaming-oriented Internet with its announcement today that it will broadcast a very, very special Nintendo Direct Pre E3 presentation of exciting new info. How new and exciting? Well gamers E3 is about to get even crazier than in your wildest imaginations! Tomorrow's broadcast, a source has told the Paul Gale Network is only the tip of an iceberg that is set to emerge in events across the week of E3. Treat yourself to a few expected highlights - and remember this is only the very beginning!
-Project H.A.M.M.E.R. The game is said to have been put on hiatus until the unique powers of the Wii U enabled its intended expression. It is also said to be on track to introduce the first all-new super star to the Nintendo roster in some time.
-Ice Climber: Climate Hero!! Popo and Nana star in their first proper Ice Climbing outing since 1985
Heres hoping that Wii U absolutely blows us away next week!

Going to take some Wait-Mate and then wake up exactly on time. I'll then funnel high doses of caffeine into my mouth.
By the way you guys are all riding the wrong hype train. Mine sounds like this. So much better than Quad City DJ's.
Bonus HiFi version.

I'd prefer it if they just made it "Project H.A.M.M.E.R.: Featuring King Dedede"
i love the internet XD
No one caught it because it's Paul Gale. He's way more miss than hit.
The title of the game gives it away.
I'm a programmer. I can't help but think 240 is overkill.

I'm digging this. For some reason, I went from that to Paperboy.

Doubtful, but maybe they are planning for tomorrow to be all about specs, something they'd rather not spend time during the conference talking about...
1080p. Check that box.
They probably won't go into details. Nintendo doesn't want you to care about the specs.
Its not because people aren't catching it, its because people are choosing to ignore it...
This will be awesome only because it will allow them to just pump out game after game during their conference. There will be no need to talk about hardware at all if they do all of that during the Nintendo Direct tomorrow. This is also brilliant because EA/Ubisoft will not show Wii U features before Nintendo. I'm hoping we get a glimpse at the OS tomorrow as well as some of the features of the uPad.

Hype train, hype bicycle, same thing.
Throwin' dem hype newspapers at them hype matsssssssssss
I'm expecting them to announce price / release date. (Holiday 2012 $249.99!)
I'm doubting they will announce price or release date now. They want to focus on the content and by announcing price/release date they will distract people away from that content. I'm expecting a price/release date announcement in their next Nintendo Direct.
I click the link but I don't see anything about Project Hammer or Ice Climbers.
The link just leads to a Reggie video and I don't see it anywhere on his site. Did he take it down?
The only problem with having a software only or hardware lite tuesday conference, is for people who miss or skip tomorrow's direct video.
IGN, The Verge, Joystiq... i'm sure plenty of others have not posted about the Nintendo Direct tomorrow, now several hours after it came to light.
their writers have been waiting for tuesday to get hardware information, so if they miss or skip tomorrow... then on tuesday they will say what the hell where's my hardware information!
I don't think we should expect the kitchen sink tomorrow. I think there has to be a significant chunk of hardware time in the actual conference because that's what the conference is for afterall. tomorrow would be very general i think... just enough to make headlines around the newssphere and get everyone ready for monday's third party conferences. Then tuesday would be in depth OS perhaps.
