Nintendo will hold a press event on September 13 to reveal Wii U launch information – for North America that is. The company’s Japanese division has been remaining quiet about its own plans.

Many expected that Satoru Iwata would host the annual Nintendo Conference next month and would share Japanese-specific content for the Wii U. Turns out that this may not actually be happening.

Iwata, tweeting following today’s Nintendo Direct, indicated that the company will announce Japanese Wii U details in a different way.

He wrote:

“”There are more than a few people who are thinking, ‘There’ll be a Nintendo Conference in September.’ I want to tell you in advance that the announcement of the Wii U in Japan is planned in a way not involving the Conference.”

Make of that what you will…
