Reggie Teases Nintendo's "Big" Holiday Game Will Be Revealed At E3

Looking forward to some new Nintendo announcements? Might want to hold tight until about July, according to Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. He tells Geoff Keighley on the newest GameTrailers TV that the company will be announcing the second half of '08's line-up at E3. What's on tap? Mostly misdirection and fanboy teasing, it sounds like.

When asked if the orchestra conductor demo from E3 2006 would make an appearance, Reggie said "Who knows? Maybe that's one of the things we'll talk about at E3." He similarly dodged a Donkey Kong Wii question.

Fils-Aime said that Nintendo's post-E3 releases will be "maximizing all of our key franchises," teasing something the hardcore userbase will be frothing over. F-Zero? Pilotwings? Something Zelda-related? What is it?!

Reggie was cagey. "There's gonna be a big game for the holiday that the gamers will want," he said. "All I can tell you is what we announce during E3 is gonna be fantastic. The gamer is gonna be excited and the expanded audience is gonna be excited."

Who wants to start making some educated guesses? I've got a rupee on Kid Icarus. Wait, scratch that. Tingle Prime.

Here's the video the article is referencing. The bit of the video this references is in the 3rd bar, so click on that for what you're looking for.

And there we go.

Not exactly much to discuss but guesses on what this allegedly "big" game will be...

Anyway, discuss now or else.

More like a big game will be revealed for a Holiday release, then delayed indefinitely.

Well, if we want to go off their big franchises...
F-zero, a Mario sports game, Star Fox, Kirby, Donkey Kong

but if I wanted to be surprised, I'd say something like, Golden Sun or Earthbound or something

Maybe a remake of a really popular game?

They're Nintendo, not Square Enix.

Don't get my hopes up.

You've got a good three months to get hyped for it before they're crushed.

I'm guessing it'll be something cool but not amazing. Best I'm hoping for is a new Pikmin; it's too early for the next Zelda.

Maybe Animal Crossing?

Yeah, when Nintendo do it they call it a sequel.

The rumored MMO-esque Animal Crossing would certainly fit the bill as something that would appeal to both crowds.

Big games will be unveiled for all consoles this E3. Your point?

**Raebus** · 03-21-2008, 02:16 PM

RAWH. I AM ON THE OFFENSIVE BECAUSE A WII THREAD WAS MADE. RAWH

Absolutely. No, they'll just rehash the same basic ideas from the 80's again.
