Don’t you hate people that say “South By” when referring to popular film, music, and interactive festival SXSW? I do. That’s kind of like those people that say they have a Facebook. A Facebook what? Account? A book of faces? 

Nintendo will be showing off their latest wares at SXSW 2013 this year, and they plan to show off many unreleased Wii U and 3DS games alongside currently available offerings.
