No Japanese date for X/Y, interesting.
It's going to have an international release, so somewhere around Oct 10 is when it is going to release.

Think of the cheapest LCD display possible and add in Game Gear-level blur. It's awful by today's standards.
But I was able to beat Breath of Fire IV on a trip to North Carolina, so I loved it.
So WiiU Nintendo Direct a possibility before E3?
Yes, Xbox has been on fire compared to everyone else (AFAICT). It's kind of nutty.UK - Vita hardware share halved compared to last year, 3DS shrank by about 5%, Xbox eating everyones lunch
Hes having the convience of playing the game with comfortability as a handheld.How so?
Germany on top, France on bottom.
Nintendo pretty much went "fuck you" for Tokyo Game Show, I don't see why they can't do it for E3.Is he implying they will announce big titles before E3? E3 just the means to show them off properly?
今年のE3では、当社は新ハードの発表を予定しておりませんし、ソフトを発表し、体験をいただくことがE3の主な活動になります。当社が発表するWii Uゲームについてもっと良く知りたいと多くの方々が大いなる興味をお持ちですし、当社はE3のタイミングを利用して、今年発売するWii Uゲームを中心にその詳細をお伝えし、かつ、来場者にすぐに体験いただけるようにするつもりです。そこで、今年はこれまでにない取り組みとして、E3での新たな発表形式を確立することにチャレンジします。
Seems like they plan to hold info directs around the E3 period. The next section confuses me it seems to suggest they may not have an E3 conference at all
E3 to focus on Wii U titles coming this year and playable versions of said titles. Nintendo also plans on "challenging" a new method for announcements at E3, in a way not seen before.

Too bad web-based Miiverse is read only.

Even in english...I dont understandAt this years E3 we will not be announcing a new hardware system, so E3's primary mission will be to have [press, analysts] experience our software. Many people would like to know more about the titles for Wii U that will be announced. We will use the timing of E3 to focus on providing details about our Wii U titles for release this year, and intend to create opportunities for guests to the conference to experience them immediately. We will attempt to use this year's E3 to make announcements in a new way that we have not tried before.

Nintendo also put this up for the briefing: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2013/130425.pdf

まず、例年のような世界中の皆様に向けた全方位向けの、新しいニュースを発信するような大規模プレゼンテーションを行わないことにいたしました。
First, we have decided not to perform a large-scale presentation, such as the transmission of all orientation towards towards everyone around the world, such as in previous years, the new news.

United KingdomI'd say yes, yes, yes, and I don't know what else the last could be?
This must be EU breakdown by country:
UK, France, Germany, don't know the rest. Germany seems to be best performing region in terms of marketshare for WiiU.
maybe they'll treat it like an entertainment show and have no one on stage doing gameplay. show a pikmin animation short, "come check out pikmin after the show". show a short mario trailer,"come see the titles in action afterwards", etc. that way the press gets their exclusives rather than nintendo taking it all for themselves.
They don't have to worry about hyping new consoles like they have for the past several E3s, so they can spend this one entirely on hyping software.Even in english...I dont understand
Sounds good to me.

以前は、この決算説明会の場で、製品に関する新情報などもお伝えして、それをインターネットで動画配信することも行ってきましたが、Nintendo Directのような新たな手法が確立した今、それぞれの異なる立場の皆様に、個別に情報発信を行うことにより、より的確で効果的な情報発信ができるのではないかと考えています。
まず、例年のような世界中の皆様に向けた全方位向けの、新しいニュースを発信するような大規模プレゼンテーションを行わないことにいたしました。それに替わり、より小規模な米国向けソフトに焦点を当てた複数のイベントを計画しております。そのうちのひとつは米国流通関係者の皆様向けのクローズドなイベントで、もうひとつは、主に西洋のゲームメディアの皆様を対象としたクローズドな体験型のイベントです。また、私は昨年の「プレゼンテーション」に登壇しませんでしたが、今年もこれらのイベントに登壇する予定はしておりません。これらクローズドな来場者向けイベント以外に、E3の時期に当社からゲーム情報をご家庭におられるプレイヤーの皆様に直接お届けする新しい方法を継続して検討中ですので、決定次第、改めてお知らせしてまいります。
Last year was proof that for normal non console announcement years that Nintendo Direct is a much better avenue for spreading your message.
Nintendo has several smaller scale events planned with the focus on titles for the NA market this E3. That is, instead of their one, large presentation they typically hold. Iwata will not appear at any of these events. Besides that, they're investigating a means of transmitting this information directly to fans that can't attend the event.

Still working on the last ones.
Yep.Found the old image:
Should presumably be the same order?

Just seems like they're focusing on (new) software at this E3 and making sure every one tries the demos I guess.Even in english...I dont understand
your right but e3 is my christmas lol
your right but e3 is my christmas lol
First, we have decided not to hold a large-scale presentation where new news is presented to a general audience from all over the world as in previous years. Instead, we are planning several smaller events for software targeted at the American market.
In clear words:
No E3 conference.
Hm wording is a bit weird but I hope that doesn't mean that all they are showing is stuff coming this year.At this years E3 we will not be announcing a new hardware system, so E3's primary mission will be to have [press, analysts] experience our software.

Sure does sound like it, and frankly, I think it's a mistake. At least, not a significant price drop.So should we start thinking no price drop for Wii U? The focus on software, software, software sounds like "we're not dropping price, we're going to justify the current price".
Or am I getting the wrong impression?
