Target and Ubisoft will come together at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles, June 2–4, for an exclusive preview of the upcoming titles Press Your Luck™ 2010 and the all new The Price Is Right™ 2010. The games will be playable on the Wii™ system from Nintendo at the Target Bullseye Lounge, centrally located in the mezzanine between the main halls. E3 attendees will be the first to experience Ubisoft’s video game adaptations of the popular television game shows, which are produced by FremantleMedia North America.

Is Miyamoto going to show something big at E3?
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 4 Comments
Last night, a report released by Nikkei said that a new Mario game would be hitting the Wii later this year. But could that be Shigeru Miyamoto’s big project to be unveiled at E3? On a recent episode of X-Play, Director of Gaming Editorial on G4TV.com, Billy Berghammer said that “something’s going on with” Miyamoto and that he is going to be interviewed during the show. That certainly makes it seem as though something important will be shared at E3.
“…The only other thing I will say though, is Miyamoto is going to be announcing something. We’re meeting with them during the show for an interview so I’m going to pretty much speculate that something’s going on with him. Either Mario or Zelda. Or he could be talking about the next Pikmin game which is also rumored…I still think there’s going to be a new Zelda.”
