Nintendo Power Teaser: "A cover story for the generaions." [Update: Mirror Of Fate]

Kojima said he's not working on Wii U. And why would anyone expect him to? All that guy ever really works on is Sony systems.

I think he actually said his Fox Engine is not running on the Wii U. Its possible that the Wii U will get a Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, like on the Xbox 360. Also, its possible that Twin Snakes could get a HD release, perhaps on the GameCube Virtual Console!

or perhaps as part of a Metal Gear Solid Trilogy collection

There are rumors following the Castlevania: Mirror of Fate leak that the cover of the next Nintendo Power will be a homage to the Simon's Quest cover, perhaps a reference to the generational difference between then and now.

Take that rumor with caution, though.
 
When are we supposed to see that cover ?
Given that the preview was posted from last month's issue on 04/24, I would say in the next few days.

I started a sub on May 1st, but the "four to six" weeks thing would indicate that my first issue delivered will be the one after this.

I am holding zero faith that Nintendo updates any GCN games to HD for the VC. Unless they are high profile first party for a much higher price tag

Doesn't mean there's no Metal Gear!

My bet is 007 / COD for 3DS. Given what's happening to that guy who leaked the Wii U controller, and the whole giant NDA going on, I can't think it's possible for them to reveal exclusively a brand new Wii U game, especially right before E3.

Yeah, it's probably 007 for 3DS. I'm pretty confident a Wii U version is in the works, but I doubt NP would be revealing it.

Man, if they tease a game that has already been released in Japan and isn't even big in America...

You are probably right. Unfortunately.

Fire Emblem has Russians?

I guess "comrade" and maybe "generations" could work for FE3DS. I would be very happy if it's revealed to be coming to NA.

I still think it will be something obvious like 007 though.

It would be much more interesting than 007 lol.

Hopefully its Castlevania though, NP has gotten the last few scoops on the handheld games so maybe they will again.
 
"For the generations" better be a reference to the game. No way this cover story will be remembered for long, no matter what game it is.

If it was indeed something "cool", the NDAs would be more or less already finished (or info leaked) and we would have heard from any other source like EVERY SINGLE TIME THIS HAPPENS so given the timeframe, I'd say it's just Castlevania 3DS.

God that would be glorious.
 
I'm guessing they're not literally meaning it's gonna be a big deal, it's just a pun and the title of the game will have 'generations' in it or something.
 
Remember when they were teasing some game, saying anyone who won't be excited about it can no longer be a Nintendo fan? (Or something in the vein of that)
It was Conduit 2.

Would love the full quote but if that's true, it's fucking disgusting.
And Vile and Sickening.
And possibly illegal.

Still no news ?

No.

I'd ADORE one for the 3DS, love MH, I'd love to play a clone.

Have we even heard of the PSP sequel in a while?
Also no. They've been very tight-lipped about it since it was announced. Very little has come from the Community blog, too.
There were some rumblings prior to TGS that Shift was hiring for Vita development. Some have concluded that they're making a Vita version as well, which I guess kinda makes sense. Sorta.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Just to know...when is Nintendo Power normally released?
I mean, is it always released in a specific day of the month ( for example: first monday of the month), or does it vary?

I'd like to know, in order to understand when the preview should go up on the official Nintendo Power site.

It's normally the next-to-last week of the month, but it looks like this one might be going out to subscribers a bit later than usual, since apparently no one has received it yet.
