Nintendo had a number of Wii U demos on hand at last year’s E3. The company brought along experiences such as Battle Mii, Find Mii, and the Zelda HD display.

There was one additional demo – dubbed by Nintendo fans as the Tokyo Street demo – that only a few journalists seemed to mention. Additionally, no one managed to capture footage of the experience, supposedly due to the fact that it was being shown behind closed-doors.

Thankfully, CES has given the press with more hands-on time with the Wii U. Someone was able to capture a little bit of footage this time around.

The Tokyo Street demo puts the camera a few feet in the air and the viewpoint continuously moves down a street in a linear path – this happens directly on the television. Users are able to get a less restricted look of the area by moving the Wii U controller in all sorts of directions. Players can rotate the tablet, move it up/down (see the sky/more towards the ground), and more. By pressing a button, the Wii U controller essentially becomes a rear-view mirror, letting users see what’s behind them.

You can find a few screengrabs of the Tokyo Street demo in the gallery above. Footage can be found at the 2:38 mark here.

The Circle Pad Pro won’t be bundled in with Japanese copies of Kid Icarus: Uprising… but the game will come with a stand!

Director Masahiro Sakurai took to Twitter to share the news today.

He also included this photo of the stand:

It’s currently unclear if North American/European copies of Kid Icarus will include the stand as well.
