The first 54 minutes will focus on the main presentation, followed by 43 minutes of footage/videos. I’ll be posting up any important information/media on the site throughout the event.

Update: Added in another photo.

Nintendo of America posted the photo above to their Facebook page a short while ago. Additionally, the company wrote the following:

“?#Regginator himself was spotted getting ready to make some announcements. Stay tuned on this page tomorrow for the latest and the greatest!”

So… there will be announcements then? Nintendo Direct presentations have mainly been about games that have already been revealed. Maybe tomorrow’s show will be slightly more special than normal. We’ll see…

Japan gets a different Swapnote relating to tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct. President Satoru Iwata sent out the following message to fans (in Japanese obviously):

Tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct presentation has become an international affair. It appears that Nintendo of Europe will be joining in on the fun for the first time.

Nintendo of Europe’s feature kicks off at 1 PM CET. I believe that’s 7 AM EST / 4 AM PST.

We’ll be covering all three Nintendo Directs as they happen. Make sure to check out the site starting at 6 AM EST for live updates.

Kid Icarus: Uprising development is finished, and the game will soon be out around the world. Director Masahiro Sakurai won’t have much time to rest, as he’ll be responsible for the next round of highly anticipated Super Smash Bros. titles.

Sakurai seems to be doing some reflection. On Twitter earlier today, Sakurai said that he’s been looking over the Smash Bros. Dojo website, which was used to communicate news about Super Smash Bros. Brawl to fans. He said, “However, what’s the word… it’s tremendous. How did we make this?”

Indies Zero CEO Masanobu Suzui saw Sakurai’s message and said something similar. Once a game is done and he check outs the design documents, materials, and development schedule for a project, he isn’t sure how the team managed to put everything together and create the title.

Sakurai’s response? “It’s because we always put our full effort into it. And then, if you rely on that pace, it becomes more and more difficult.”

Two Nintendo Direct presentations will be taking place tomorrow morning.

First, Nintendo of Japan will stream a presentation from Satoru Iwata. This will begin at 6 AM EST / 3 AM PST.

Following this, Nintendo of America will post up their own version of Nintendo Direct. Like the first show from last year, Reggie Fils-Aime will take viewers through the latest Nintendo news. The North American presentation is set for 9 AM EST / 6 PM PST.

You can keep track of the Nintendo Direct websites here and here

I wouldn’t expect any megatons, but as usual, we should receive some nice tidbits about upcoming games as well as new footage of Wii/3DS titles.

Thanks to 4Him and Travis P for the tip!
