A new site has opened for Tecmo Koei’s E3 2012 presence.

The company has added in information about its lineup and has posted links to each game’s official site. Trailers for Tecmo Koei’s titles will also be added in sometime during the week.

You can find the page here.


Above is an image coming from its Facebook page. Along with the image itself, Tecmo Koei teased “new titles” with the following notice:

“E3 2012 teaser starts right here. Make sure you come back on June 5th for the blast. New titles”

Last year, Nintendo’s E3 boxes were all the rage. Photos of these items were taken a couple of days before the Big N’s press conference, contribution to a rise in hype.

Good news, folks – the boxes are back! No, they really don’t show anything, but it’s still amusing. Plus, there’s a twist this year: there are Nintendo vehicles driving around Los Angeles!

Remember how Satoru Iwata was tweeting during E3 last year? Well, he’s back, and he’ll be doing the same thing for this year’s expo.

According to Nintendo of America’s Twitter account:

“Nintendo’s Global President will be guest tweeting in our #IwataSays series throughout #E3, beginning Monday!”

You can follow the NOA Twitter here. If Iwata tweets anything interesting, we’ll post it here.



Nintendo of America posted the image above to its Twitter account just a few minutes ago. Nintendo’s “big three” – Shigeru Miyamoto, Satoru Iwata, and Reggie Fils-Aime – have all landed in Los Angeles. They’re ready for that show, and that photo is pretty darn awesome.

Update: Nintendo of America’s Twitter account says tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct “focuses on the concept behind Wii U”. Games are coming on Tuesday, so tomorrow’s show will probably focus on the other details behind the system.


Nintendo is pulling a surprising move by holding a new “Nintendo Direct” presentation just a day before E3, and just two days before its media briefing. President Satoru Iwata will be on hand to present Wii U news.

According to Nintendo UK’s Twitter account, the event will take place at 23:00 GMT / 24:00 CET. That’s 6 PM EDT and 3 PM PDT.

You’ll be able to watch the pre-recorded presentation here.

We’ll have the latest information here for you as usual. This should be a good one…

Starting on July 1, Club Nintendo will be seeing a fairly significant overhaul for coin values.

All eShop downloads will net you 5 points rather than 10, Nintendo Select registrations are going from 50 coins to 20, and 3DS post-play surveys will be given a 10 point reductions. Nintendo’s recent DSi and DSi XL price drops will be reflected on the site as well.

There are a bunch of games that will remain at their original values while others have been increased slightly. For all of the changes, view the images in the gallery above. You can also find more information here.
