Everything will come from this.

 

[WiiRevolution1]

[Battle Born]

Cool, I hope we get more hints at what their new strategy will be. If W101 gets dated here I'll be so happy but it probably won't happen.

Hey now I remember, which was it... there were huge bomb drops one time before, was that the last one in Jan or last year at one? All about the OS and services, but still GAF went nuts for some stuff, it was the one that confirmed Friend Codes were history.

 

[tajd]

I have no popcorn.

[Meelow]

Will any announcements come from this?

Nintendo announced the Wii U on April's Investor Meeting 2011, Nintendo announced Nintendo Network and NSMB2 on January's Investor Meeting 2012, and Nintendo announced details about E3 on April's Investor Meeting 2012.

So it's possible.

 

[Raxus]

Price drop is inevitable at this point. I have been waiting for this Nintendo.

 

[schuelma]

Only semi realistic thing that could be announced is a vague confirmation of 3D Mario and/or MK coming out this fiscal year.

 

[GulAtiCa]

Wonder if we will hear anything interesting.

Nice to see that X is confirmed for NA, another Xenoblade situation is completely unacceptable.
