IGN editor Lucas Thomas appears to be aware of something Nintendo-related. And that something is a secret. Thomas recently teased Nintendo fans with the following blurb:

“Hey hey IGN boardies, Lucas here checking in from the IGN War Room at E3. It’s time to get hyped, Nintendo fans. I think you’re going to be very pleased with what you’re going to see very soon! I could give you guys a clue, but you’d have to chase me down. You guys have some great guesses. I think that clue is all I can offer right now, but I’ll be back with another nugget sometime before the Nintendo’s briefing kicks off tomorrow morning.”

Is it a first-party game? Third-party title? Project Cafe related? I have no idea, but I can’t wait to find out!

The format of this commercial is similar to Nintendo’s other 3DS commercials. However, I found this one in particular to be quite good! I should make note of the fact that the last boss in the game is sort of spoiled, though I’m sure most of you beat the game at this point.
