Nintendo Wii HD™

Believe.

Not a new console... just another version of the Wii with the capability of rendering the games in HD (like the Dolphin emulator).

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Zelda trailers confirmed then!

 

[StealthGoblin]

Good. I was wondering if they'd do this.

More Zelda plz.

 

[LiK]

probably a lot of pimpin' for 3D tech with the 3DS. that's all i expect.

 

[MNC]

Yeah so there must be something coming then!

 

[GregLombardi]

Based on Iwata's recent commentary that the Wii isn't being replaced soon, I'd wager on a new trailer and maybe a new game. What he says will matter more though...

 

[JWong]

GDC is not a place for announcements.

 

[jhawk6]

Will watch, hoping for Zelda. I am not expecting a Wii HD mention

Spoiler

Believe

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

GDC is not a place for announcements.

Funny you should say that when Nintendo announced both Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks at GDC events in the past, along with accompanying trailers (I'm sure Twilight Princess got a trailer at GDC as well)

 

[Black-Wind]

Well, I'm hyped.

Gonna have to find away to peep this, not coming home til noon tomorrow.

 

[Bentendo]

GDC is not a place for announcements.

If I remember correctly Skyward Sword has already been announced, so it's a'ight.

 

[Ushojax]

There is so going to be a Zelda trailer, the last 3 games have all had trailers at GDC.

 

[Fernando Rocker]

I want Nintendo to name their next gen console Nintendo HD™, just that simple.

Or NES HD™.

 

[Chavelo]

BRING ON TEH ZERUDA!

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

There is so going to be a Zelda trailer, the last 3 games have all had trailers at GDC.

Not just 1 trailer, but 2! (don't forget OoT 3D! That game hasn't even had any trailer at all yet!)

Both games are long overdue a trailer and they're both going to get one tomorrow.

 

[Luigi87]

I will be here! In my seat! Watching the stream!

....yay...

 

[Guevara]

At the 2009 GDC Keynote we got:

• Random Employee Kidnapping
• Charts, Charts, Charts
• Announcement trailer for Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

I think we can reasonable expect a similar performance tomorrow.

[Mudkips]

ctrl+f vitality sensor

GAF is slipping.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Hope he announces stuff about eShop and 3dsware.

 

[Fernando Rocker]

 

[jump_button]

[jhawk6]

Not just 1 trailer, but 2! (don't forget OoT 3D! That game hasn't even had any trailer at all yet!)

Both games are long overdue a trailer and they're both going to get one tomorrow.

This is true! Never thought of that, gonna be Zelda overload!

Nintendo Wii HD™

Believe.

Oh, and a $50 add-on for the users who already have the Wii.

 

[Boney]

Agh, I'm gonna miss it. Too bad.

 

[JWong]

Funny you should say that when Nintendo announced both Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks at GDC events in the past, along with accompanying trailers (I'm sure Twilight Princess got a trailer at GDC as well)

When E3 was a shell of its former self couple years ago.

Last Year's News flash: E3 is back.

 

[marc^o^]

New 3DS Mario could be revealed, Iwata mentioned it this week.

 

[Anth0ny]

oh yes.

DROP THE BOMB

HYPEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[Shahadan]

Can't wait to read "shut up and show zeldaaaaa" everywhere.

 

[Pappasman]

Shit. I have class at 9...

I want Nintendo to name their next gen console Nintendo HD™, just that simple.

Or NES HD™.

That would be amazing.

 

[badcrumble]

He'd better get any big surprises out of the way in his first hour so they can have their time in the sun before Apple's iPad 2 presser at 10 AM PT takes over all tech blogs for the rest of the day.

 

[FoneBone]

New 3DS Mario could be revealed, Iwata mentioned it this week.

Not unless it's out this year, which I very much doubt. Otherwise they'll wait until E3.

 

[Graphics Horse]

Ohh.. that suggests

Spoiler

sales charts

might make an appearance!

Not unless it's out this year, which I very much doubt. Otherwise they'll wait until E3.

They'll just show some artwork which hints that Mario will wear a pair of magic, talking overalls for now. The full reveal will be at E3

 

[Bentendo]

Omg Zelda confirmed

I gasped.

 

[leroidys]

I'll expect a new Skyward Sword trailer, but I'll hope for a FSA 3DS/Wii game.


(probably be disappointed either way)

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Release date for Zelda?

 

[From The Dust]

Yes! I can make it if I get on he first bus outta wallin.

 

[Hot Coldman]

I'M SO EXCITED

 

[StunandStab]

Here's to hoping that the inevitable new trailer for Skyward Sword shows something to actually get me excited about the game!

 

[Lord_Byron28]

GDC is not a place for announcements.

They won't announce anythnig big, I agree. We will likely only hear about games already confirmed. However, Nintendo has had a few big conferences. Last year they anounced that MH3 was coming in April, SMG2 in May, S&P2 in June and M:OM in June(it got delayed though) as well as release new trailers and demos for those games. We also got a little bit of 3DS news. So this year I think we can expect a specific lineup for Wii and 3DS until the summer. As well as some trailers most notably from Skyward Sword and OoT 3D.
