This information comes from Senior Manager of Community Seth Killian, who shared the following information on the Capcom-Unity message boards…

“As far as announcements in general go, keep your eyes peeled for news from our upcoming ‘Captivate’ event, where we usually have some interesting stuff to reveal…”

This news isn’t very surprising since Capcom always has some announcements to share at Captivate. Last year, the company showed off Spyborgs’ new look, announced the localization for Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, and featured Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. I’m sure there will be a number of goodies this year as well.

Captivate seems to have turned into an annual event for Capcom. The company has confirmed that Captivate will once again take place this year. You can expect the company to reveal a few games as well as feature already-announced titles. Keiji Infaune – as well as other producers and directors – will be attending. You guys know what I want: An official North American localization announcement for Okamiden!

Update: We now have some clarification from Mr. Cuthbert. Basically, you shouldn’t really read into what was said. Still, though, I’d love to see Q-Games work on a title for the 3DS.

This information comes from Dylan Cuthbert’s Twitter. Cuthbert is the founder of Q-Games.

“@kamidphish The main problem is the top secret hardware we are always working on – there’s no way to do that work outside of the office”

One obvious possibility here is that Q-Games is working on some sort of project for the 3DS. The system is still under wraps somewhat and the company has developed a number of titles for Nintendo, including Star Fox Command. However, Q-Games also has some ties to Sony and created games for them as well. So I’m assuming that Cuthbert was either referring to the 3DS or something Sony related.

Thanks to Kyle for the news tip!

“[Apple] is not having an impact on Nintendo when you look at our business, our volume, our hardware, our software. I’ve seen data that suggestions that while consumers are constantly downloading Apps, they play with them for a few times and then they are moving on to the next thing. Clearly it doesn’t look like their platform is a viable profit platform for game development because so many of the games are free versus paid downloads. If our games represent a range between snacks of entertainment and full meals depending on the type of game, (Apple’s) aren’t even a mouthful, in terms of the gaming experience you get.” – Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime

The thing about the iPad is that it’s not a traditional system. There’s much more to the device that just gaming. Also, unlike Nintendo’s handhelds, playing titles won’t be of huge importance to some consumers. I’m sure that not everyone immediately thinks of gaming when the iPad is brought up.

“Don’t worry, we have plenty more games we’ll be announcing, most likely all within the next few weeks.” – XSEED responding to a fan email

Hopefully we’ll see some announcements for the Wii and DS. There are a ton of games I’d like to see localized for North America.

“If there was the possibility, I’d be very interested [in creating a game for Nintendo]. But I’d have to be able to create an original title.” – Suda51

Yeah, I’m not too sure how well Mario and Travis Touchdown would mix. But maybe the first step for Suda51’s wish is to get Travis in the next Smash Bros. game!
