This was posted in the "What we know so far about the Nintendo NX with sources" thread, thought it was worth a mention:

On 5/5, the second floor will be closed until 1PM due to a private event at #NintendoNYC.

What could this possibly be, internal staff training event for E3/Zelda perhaps, something NX related even? Or somebody has rented the space for a birthday party maybe?

Someone nearby could perhaps sneak by tomorrow and take a pic or two.

Update:
We're here at the #NintendoNY store at 30 Rock for a demo of #DisneyArtAcademy!

What if it's all 3 and little Bobby will have seen the new Zelda on NX before anybody else?
Wedding from what my Nintendo group was saying. Not the first time apparently

That's a bit of a strange location for a wedding.

Internal staff being told that the actual private event at #NintendoNYC will take place in 2017

This IS the NX reveal event. The "let nobody know but internal sales teams until release" strategy will be the key to achieving Wii-levels of success.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
Probably a birthday party or something

In case you need to overhype yourselves and be heavily disappointed afterwards: last time they closed the second floor, Nintendo Direct was announced in few days. And, from what I remember, this is not the first time Nintendo does that.

Whatever it is, it's almost certainly something that's being overblown and is probably irrelevant to fans

Edit: It really can't be that exciting--the store isn't that big and there are giant windows there as I recall; whatever's there could probably be seen from outside

Nintendo has an actual NY office for showing secret things off.

Somehow folks will be disappointed by a non-event because some crazy website will run a story about a "secret" Nintendo meeting taking place tomorrow.

Guys I just did the math. It starts at 9 a.m, it will last 4 hours, and it is on the 2nd floor.

9-4-2= HALF LIFE 3 CONFIRMED NX EXCLUSIVE!

All of you saying 'it's nothing' will look pretty foolish when they'll have their big NX REVEAL DIRECT tomorrow.

7 figure wedding at least. Wish I was in the top 1% to have a wedding like that

7 figure wedding? In a fucking Nintendo retail store with boxes and tshirts and stand up dolls everywhere? Get real bro.

I'm imagining Dominoes pizza boxes and Carvel ice cream cake...
