IGN teases about a secret new Nintendo project photo

A possible new Nintendo title being teased right before E3? What a surprise. According to GoNintendo, Craig Harris dropped a little tidbit about a new super secret Nintendo project on IGN's Twitter page. Instead of going to the page and wading through all the other tweets, I'll just save you some time and paste it here for you:

Yo, @craigign here. Why was I at Nintendo today? I think you’ll be excited when I can talk about it. Soon

Well, I have a healthy serving of skepticism when it comes to teases for this big reveals, but who knows, this good mean we are going to see something good from Nintendo's E3 press conference this year (like maybe the Pikmin 3 announcement we desperately wanted last year but did not get). Let's just say it is big though -- what would you want it to be? New Zelda? New Pikmin? Official release of Mother 3?

Wasn't EDGE or some magazine hinted at another Pikmin game? I dunno, maybe it's that.

NO, no getting excited!

Ever since E3 last year I've trained myself not to buy into any insider talk about anything coming from Nintendo. Until I see something with my own eyes I will not give a shit, because I'll usually be disappointed in the end.

I especially loved the things Craig foreshadowed last year. And how none of it actually happened!

Anything less than Mother 3 in english, a new Mother game, Earthbound on the VC, or Mother 3 in english on DSi store is going to be considered a waste of my time Nintendo. You've been warned.

I guess I'll settle for a Metroid game of some sort.

Another mash-up of nintendo characters but this time in a Fire Emblem style game

If it involves MOTHER, then it better be a MOTHER 1+2+3 compilation for teh DeeEss (along with an EarthBound release on the VC to hype it). I personally wanna hear about a GBA-slotted DSi, since I'm on the verge of gettin' one, and would hope they would announce such a model soon or not at all, since the only thing worse than never having what you want is getting the next-best and then your preferred is announced "too late".

Because they own awesome game franchises still unfortunately take lame policies to distribute them?

Oh and btw, I also literally agree with the "Zelda Wii" comments because Twilight Princess is really a GameCube game and doesn't count for being a port.

It has to be Kid Icarus or... Mother 3 oficial release! :D

The reason we haven't seen anything good from nintendo on the wii lately is they'd rather spend their money on the 10x larger causal gamer market. They can spend 10% of the cost of a proper wii zelda game making WiiSports 3 and sell 5x more copies.

If knew they were going to release a full blown console Pokemon game, then I'd buy a Wii tomorrow. Unfortunately, that's not going to ever happen.

Tell us what Retro Studios is working on! Please!

Don't be stupid man. Nintendo has got some great games out this year from Excitebots, Punch-Out!! and Rhythm Heaven to Wii Sports Resort, Mario & Luigi RPG 3, Starfy and Sin & Punishment 2 as well as Zelda:Spirit Tracks. There's also several other known second-party titles such as Endless Ocean 2, Cosmic Walker, Dynamic Slash, Trace Memory R, Tact of Magic and Spawn Smasher.

If there's one thing Nintendo needs to get serious about, then its got to be Wiiware. Hopefully, we'll see some good stuff from them besides more remakes.

Official release of mother 3 LOL.

You should know its not gonna happen Colette, there's plenty of evidence that supports this.

I look forward to everyone's crushing dissapointment when its actually revealed :)

I doubt it'll be Mother. Maybe a 2D Metroid, Pikmin 3(My money's on this), or throwing it out there, F-Zero? That'd be bitchin'.

Pikmin 3 is the most obvious choice.

Personally I would love a new Starfox. Can't see it happening though.

New Zelda or Icarus, the system needs more adventure games with less cartoons (Donkey/Mario). Although i wouldn't mind a new cel-shaded look for any sword wielding nintendo character ;)s to the Big N.

Pikimin 3 was already announced, so that shouldn't surprise anyone, metroid would be stealing thunder from conduit, and any other lame ass wiidonothing game would be a fatal repeat of last years E3 showing...and i assume that they are smarter and richer than just doing that. Again. I hope. Please.

Craig said going in he wasn't expecting anything.

Sounds like he's surprised at what he saw.

Wii Music 2, or Wii play 2. Mother 3 is never going to be released in the States. EVER.

Would indeed like me a Zelda. But who knows with these idiots at the moment. Will probably be some new Balance Board game. Yay.
