According to French site, Gamekyo, Nintendo will show off a game that, quote, “everyone is waiting for”:

“We can announce today that Nintendo will reveal a new game for the Wii during this event which is actually an old franchise that everyone is waiting for,” the report says.

Nintendo UK quickly responded to the report saying: ”rumour and speculation” equalled “no comment”.

Could it be the fabled return of the Kid Icarus franchise?? Or could this be an announcement for a new Zelda or Mario game?  And with the rumors of the new Nintendo DS, Thursday might bring us some very exciting news indeed.

New York Game Conference Ask 8 Teens About Their Habits

Posted by james On September 27, 2008

- When asked what they liked to do the most, the eight teens, which was split 50/50 when it came to gender, and aged between 14-17, all answered that they like to hang with friends. They all enjoyed gaming, but it wasn’t a priority, so they weren’t hardcore gamers to say the least.

- Every single one of them had access to a Wii. Either they owned one or had a family member that has one. All the girl games, plus one guy owned theirs. Of the remaining dudes, two of them had a Xbox 360 as their main console, while the last one mostly payed games on his laptop. Three of the girls also had 360s at home, though it was not specified if it was theirs or a family members. No one had a PS3.
