Getting ready for Nintendo’s investor relations meeting

A short guide to what we can expect to hear from Nintendo’s investor relations meeting tomorrow, and how you can follow it.

Yet another image of Project Café leaks out – this one’s of the back

Wow, so much for a set of images that everyone is convinced are fake. I just found a picture of the back of that console, which shows us where everything would plug in. There appears to be an antenna, two USB ports (or are they HDMI?), and some other attachment point that I can’t really […]

Official Nintendo document confirms 2012 Wii successor launch & playable E3 showing

An official document from Nintendo’s investor relations site confirms that the Wii’s successor will be revealed in playable form at E3 2011, followed by a 2012 launch.

Wario World turns up two more Project Café images

Nintendo’s servers must be getting hit with a whole ton of 404’s right now as people madly try all kinds of combinations in their attempts to squeeze more and more images out of Wario World. These two are the latest to be found. The two images are identical, with the exception of one having a […]

Third set of ‘Project Café’ pictures leaks out

Two more alleged pictures of the Wii 2 have leaked out. They look exactly like the console that was pictured in the two earlier leaks. I’m now 99% sure these are fake, because the console in this particular set has a light turned on, but isn’t plugged in anywhere (and home consoles aren’t exactly battery-powered). […]

Further confirmation of the Project Café codename

After that earlier find on Wario World, Manukineko from GoNintendo dug up the above image that more or less confirms that Project Café is the real codename of the Wii’s successor. It can be found at: https://www.warioworld.com/images/cafe/cafe_header.jpg So I guess that’s it. Café really must be the new console’s codename, unless someone at Nintendo decided to […]

Could ‘Project Café’ be the Wii 2’s real codename?

A curious anomaly on Wario World suggests that Project Café may actually really be the Wii successor’s codename.

Project Café to abandon friend codes? [Updated]

In 1UP’s latest Oddcast, Sam Kennedy has been quoted as saying that Project Café will no longer use friend codes for its online system. The origin of the information is unknown, as is its validity, but it’s certainly still a tempting proposition that Nintendo might finally do away with the friend code system entirely. However, we […]

New details on Project Café controller, including resolution and streaming

A new article from 01net, one of the leading sources of Wii HD rumors, claims that the system’s touchscreen controller is not actually HD, and instead has a resolution of 800×500 pixels. While it’s not HD, it’s still a decently high resolution for 6.2 inches, and should look about as crisp as one of the […]
