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

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."

When is the E3?

july

I think its gonna be a new franchise from matsuno maybe?
Maybe goldenson, or punchout, or even kid icarus

we've been saying the only reason wii's lineup looks 'weak' compared to ps3 is that nintendo doesn't announce anything post-july until e3...

the new Zelda?

icarus isn't a key franchise

but they will be announcing multiple things, so icarus could still be in the mix

but at least 2-3 MAJOR franchises will have releases for him to say that

animal crossing + ? + ?

My guess: Animal Crossing and/or Star Fox and/or Wii Music.

I guess Star Fox.

could they be talking about disaster day of destruction, although we already know about it.
