no I think they will announce it while they announce their financial  results 



I can see this happening but idk what the results will be... The chances are if you already have a tablet, I doubt you would want to get a wiiU cause of its tablet capabilities even though it has better games. But with that being said, this might be the time where we get to see what Nintendo would be like if it made games for tablets/mobile which will be cool and will solve many theories from people

Yeah, that's on Thursday as well...I still think we will see one this week, though. If only to soften the blow to their stock.

I can see them going with advertisements, but game demos?
Imagine playing Super Mario 3d land on your smartphone... it wouldn't work out to well, so how are the gonna make it as close to the 3ds version as possible with touchscreen controls?

Don't know but some advertisements are never bad

How do you make game demos on a smartphone? and don't tell me virtual keyboards...



Nintendo and PC gamer

Just release the older pokemon games on smartphone and tablets



How in the fuck do you make "game demos" for devices whose ONLY input is a touchscreen, when the demos are for games for a system that has a FULL CONTROLLER that also happens to have a touch screen? Makes zero sense.



Yeah I'm not really getting the "demos" part. Interesting I guess. I suspect the stockholders will be happy with this news thinking it means Mario on smartphones or something, lol.
