Two Tribes is in the very early stages of a new project, tentatively titled “Rewind”. The company fielded comments on Twitter today about 2D shooters and later confirmed that this is indeed the genre of the mystery project. Later in the day, Two Tribes wrote:
Thanks for all the feedback guys and girls! We just made Rewind (or whatever it's going to be named) a bit better today!

Obviously platforms aren’t being discussed at this point. But with any luck, we’ll see Rewind on the eShop!

Update (9/16): The announcement is… the return of “Gotta Catch ‘Em All” and a corresponding promotion.
Some sort of Pokemon announcement is in the pipeline.
On Twitter a short while ago, the official Pokemon account sent out a message stating that a “surprise” is planned for Monday. This will be a “special announcement,” according to the notice.
The full tweet reads:
Heads up, Trainers! We've got a surprise for you! Tune in Monday at 8 a.m. PDT for a special announcement!

We don’t necessarily know that this news is related to Pokemon X/Y, but it’d definitely make sense if it was.

Zelda: Wind Waker HD site has an awesome Easter egg
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 1 Comment

Nintendo has tucked away a pretty neat Easter egg in its newly-opened Zelda: Wind Waker HD site. Buried in the source code is none other than… the triforce.
This does appear to be an Easter egg, as the triforce code has no impact on the site itself. It’s displayed in a comments block – meaning it doesn’t influence the site’s look or functionality.
I suppose Nintendo wanted fans to do a little digging and come across this little discovery for themselves!
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Prima’s Zelda Box Set comes with a bunch of things. You’ll get six Zelda Collector’s Edition strategy guides, a treasure chest book holder, a golden 2-sided metal Zelda bookmark, and a numbered certificate of authenticity with a signature and message from series producer Eiji Aonuma.
Here’s what we know about the certificate: it measures 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 and is printed on high quality textured art paper. The number on the certificate corresponds to the collector’s edition number for that box set.
As far as Aonuma’s mystery message is concerned, Prima said the following in a website posting:
