I only include the images that actually made sense and didn’t just have a bunch of technical mumbo jumbo in them. You can check out all the images here if you’re one of those “intellectual” types. 😛

Enjoy!

Update: Nintendo has officially confirmed that they are working on the Wii’s successor. You can check out a couple of details here.

WarioWorld is a website created for developers/publishers working on Nintendo platforms. It’s possible to detect some of the folders that exist on the site, as “wii”, “nitro” and “ctr” all direct you to the homepage. Understandably, bogus names will only lead to a 404 area.

So it’s interesting that “cafe” seems to work. This could be a small indication that Nintendo’s next console is indeed codenamed “Project Cafe.” Because Nitro is accessible, it’s clear that codenames are accepted. It probably would have been more helpful had someone discovered the “cafe” URL prior to the initial rumors, but this is still a very interesting find.

Dengeki Nintendo will be pulling back the curtain on a brand new Pokemon game next month. The magazine teased the announcement – which is set for May 21 – in their latest issue. It isn’t clear if the title is in development for the Wii or 3DS, nor do we know if it’s a spinoff or something more significant. We’ll bring you any information we come across on the 21st, though there is some speculation that CoroCoro will leak details early.

The video may come in handy for some of you… that is, if you understand Japanese or French!

Nintendo 3DS Grandstand Will Keep Travelers’ Spirits Soaring

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo of America and JetBlue are teaming up to give air travelers some hands-on time with the new Nintendo 3DS™ system, which lets users enjoy video games and other entertainment in 3D without the need for special glasses. Passengers who visit JetBlue’s award-winning Terminal 5 in New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport between April 22 and May 30 will have access to an interactive Nintendo 3DS grandstand where they can play games, enjoy 3D photos and videos, and participate in daily prize giveaways. Reflecting the two companies’ shared commitment to delighting consumers, Nintendo and JetBlue aim to deliver a new dimension of entertainment for travelers of all kinds.

JetBlue’s Terminal 5 at JFK is already known as a special location, featuring more than 40 food and retail outlets that provide a fun, relaxing atmosphere for busy travelers between flights. The addition of the Nintendo 3DS grandstand will give visitors a chance to sample a variety of games, including Pilotwings Resort™, Steel Diver™, nintendogs™ + cats, Super Street Fighter® IV 3D Edition from Capcom, LEGO® Star Wars® III: The Clone Wars™ from LucasArts™, Asphalt™ 3D from Ubisoft and Madden NFL Football from EA SPORTS.

Yesterday, French site Game Blog posted a short snippet from an interview they conducted with Shigeru Miyamoto, which confirmed that Nintendo is trying their best to release Mario 3DS this year. The full interview has now been posted on the site, and the folks on NeoGAF were kind enough to translate the important bits. Miyamoto shared some very interesting information (including a comment on Project Cafe), so I recommend you check out the details below.

– Miyamoto says he’s working on a new Zelda, a new Mario, Mario Kart 3DS, and a new Pikmin
– Nintendo making new AR Games for the 3DS
– Miyamoto didn’t say if these new AR Games will be retail releases or downloadable
– Miyamoto reconfirmed that Nintendo intends to celebrate Zelda’s 25th anniversary just like they did for Mario
– Many products/merchandising for Zelda’s anniversary (unclear if this means games or CD/books)
– Miyamoto on Project Cafe rumors: Nintendo always working on new hardware and “where there’s smoke there’s fire”, but “you shouldn’t believe everything you read [on the internet]”.
– Miyamoto considering entrusting the younger teams with traditional characters such as Mario and Zelda, so he can get more time to work for himself

Nintendo’s E3 2011 conference won’t be taking place until June 7, so we’re going to have to put up with Wii 2 rumors for about another and a half. Having said that, it’s time for another “be cautious” post.

The first round of Wii 2 speculation was fair. The rumors were coming from sources such as Game Informer, EDGE, and IGN. Personally, I consider these publications to be reputable and I would hope that they would be writing their articles after careful consideration of the information that was provided to them.

Lately, though, a handful of extra rumors have come from, frankly, no-name sites, and I am very doubtful that they truly have any (reliable) insider contacts. I understand that what I said isn’t entirely fair, but it’s generally best to trust sources that have actually established themselves in the industry and have some credibility. Even over the past 24 hours or so, I’ve seen a handful of articles written which claim that the author has reliable sources, yet that alone isn’t enough to convince me that a story is legitimate.

So I’ll be filtering the types of rumors on Nintendo Everything that I consider to be potentially true and are published by trusted sources in the gaming scene. I hope you guys are also cautious when reading up on speculation not found on the site.

Oh, and about Retro Studios hiring new staff – please don’t make too much of that. Companies are always interesting in bringing in new talent, and considering Donkey Kong Country Returns wrapped up in November, it is only logical that Retro is adding staff and will be working on a new title – if they already haven’t that is.

Is Maximilian and the Rise of the Mutant Mudds seeing a revival? Well, if the game’s newly opened site and Twitter account are any indication, the answer to that question is a resounding yes.

The title appeared to be all but cancelled due to Renegade Kid not receiving enough positive responses on their blog. But the new site shows a 2D Max character in sprite form, along with the following message:

“Hi, this is Max. I found a mysterious website. Please check it out here: http://www.mutantmudds.com. It seems as though I have been reduced to my purest form: pixels. I find this to be somewhat alarming while also refreshing.”

Perhaps Renegade Kid is planning on giving Maximilian and the Rise of the Mutant Mudds another shot, albeit in another style. It isn’t even entirely clear if we’ll still see Max in a game, but the chances are stronger than they were a few months ago. Hopefully we’ll receive some answers sooner rather than later.
