You know if they had released screenshots there is no way we'd be 500 posts in by now. Starting to see the genius behind the mystery hype.
I don't know. The car vault comes to mind.

Jeff Spangenberg enters the stage and says he will return to Retro Studios. Announces Zelda spin-off for Wii with naked Zelda.
Shortly after that Richard Horrocks appears and announces the first Kirby DS game from a Western studio.

Miyamoto appears with new game: Wii Whip! bundled with chains+rumble pack.
Miyamoto plays co-op with Iwata. Ubisoft announces full support for this add-on and plans to use it in Red Steel 2.

Iwata's telling the Brain Age story again: team of 12, limited budget, made a game that's gone on to sell over 20 million copies. "We have proved that the big-budget development model is not the only choice...Games can appeal to non-traditional markets like seniors and women."

For now, it's just stuff we've heard before.

Fake conference liveblogging aside, when's GDC this year? Could be that we'll see a teaser or trailer for Excitebots there.

"In order to expand the market of the gaming industry, we must ensure that every potential gamer can find exactly what they want when they open the box. Thus, we must maximize the amount of available configurations for consumers."

Confirms the following Wii SKUs for Japan this summer/fall, with more on the way:

- Wii (Standard): The Wii Japan has today except 5000 yen cheaper, and available in Turquoise, Onyx, and Magenta.

- WiiVC: Comes with 4000 Nintendo Points, one Classic Controller Pro, and an increased capacity of 8 GB flash; 5000 yen more expensive than current model.

- WiiHD: The same Wii Japan has today except with 720p output capabilities and 4 GB interior flash memory; same price as current model.

"WiiWare and DSiWare represent Nintendo's push for creativity outside of Nintendo."

Says Japanese developers haven't been as willing to get on board with WiiWare, shows a reel of game footage from games we've all seen so far.

Edit- Wait, there was just a clip of Final Fantasy 13: Crystalis Railbuilder! It seem to be a spiritual sequel to My Life as a King.

Edit 2- Yeah, no first-party Nintendo WiiWare games yet guys. Not for a while.

Wow, Link's Shadow.

I can't believe they could put Toon Link and TP Link in the same world. It worked so well in the video!

Did anyone else find it odd that Ike and the Black Knight were just randomly fighting in the background for like 3 seconds?
