Masuda continues to hype up Pokemon Sunday
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Game Freak director Junichi Masuda strongly hinted at a Pokemon game announcement a few days ago. He told fans that they should watch Pokemon Sunday when asked about a third title to accompany Black/White.
While we still can’t say for sure that Masuda will come on tomorrow’s show to reveal a new game, it’s really starting to sound likely. And if he doesn’t share something about a new game, we can at least expect something big.
Masuda posted the following to his blog today:

I, Masuda, will be appearing on TV TOKYO’s Show, “Pokémon Smash!”
Not only that.
And there…
I will be making a VERY important announcement,

–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo:
WHAT:
Nintendo will deliver a life-size Mario Kart™ vehicle to a Clarksville, Tenn., resident as the lucky winner of the GameStop® Epic Reward Giveaway™. Nintendo will present him with the keys to the fully functioning kart.
To celebrate the recent launch of the Mario Kart™ 7 game for the portable Nintendo 3DS™ system, Nintendo teamed up with West Coast Customs to create life-size models of two karts from the game – one for Mario™ and one for Luigi™ – and unveiled them at the 2011 LA Auto Show. A recent episode of Inside West Coast Customs on the Velocity Network showed how West Coast Customs and Nintendo worked together to make these video game vehicles a reality. Members of the GameStop PowerUp Rewards™ program had the opportunity to claim Mario’s kart as part of the monthly Epic Reward Giveaway. The kart comes complete with a decorative glider wing, as represented in the game. The Luigi Bumble V Kart resides at Nintendo of America’s headquarters in Redmond, Wash.
