RUMOR - Nintendo conference this October

Reader Nintendo-Outeside let me in on a bit of information, but unfortunately, I cannot confirm it for you guys. There is a Japanese source that states that there will be some sort of Nintendo event on October 2nd, but no word on what would be there. It seems a bit strange to do a show before TGS, instead of just attending TGS itself.

What gigaton(s) can we expect at this event?!

Will we see an announcement as gigantic as Monster Hunter 3 being Wii exclusive's announcement last year?!

The mind boggles!!!

Of course, this could be another letdown, but where else are they going to unviel their core games nowadays?

Yeah, there's been rumblings all over GAF. Best not to get our hopes up, but I fully expect 4-5 new exclusive third party Wii games and the announcement of a Mother compilation for the DS.

All of which will be out in the USA before March of 2009
 
The internet will spend the next few weeks getting pumped for it, as Nintendo unveils a Wii branded USB memory stick as their storage solution.

And we will cry.

Tears of joy.

Haha, didn't see the "tears of joy" until I quoted you, but yes, that would be awesome.

Unfortunately I think this is just the conference where the reveal Kid Icarus, Donkey Kong Country 4, the Smash Bros expansion pack, and those new exclusive Resident Evil and Metal Gear Solid games.

The best part about the gif is when the person names a bunch of random "megatons". :lol

Wii Music is only missing a couple of key ingredients to be awesome. Namely, realistic breast physics and fun.

If they implement these features GAF would explode.

Remember, last year everyone wasn't expecting anything and we were all extremely surprised.

It's probably going to be the exact opposite this year. :(

Very true.

If anything, this thread will remind people (it reminded me just now) to keep expectations down to a safe level.

E308 was proof of that.

Last year's was pretty gigatonic, what with Sonic in Brawl, Monster Hunter 3 and any other announcement I may have forgotten.
We shall see. But I like having no expectations or hype going into any show. Makes the surprises that more exciting.

We won't be surprised. We already know KH3 and RE5 coming.

If this is for real, I don't think it is at all illogical to expect announcements. Besides Animal Crossing this holiday and Wii Sports Resort next Spring, there is currently not a single known Wii game.

If there is but one Wii game announced at this event, it should be a new F-ZERO. I would cream my pants.

You meant to say "first-party", right?
