Big Nintendo announcement on the way?

[wraggster]

Looks like Nintendo has some exciting news to share, with a big announcement apparently just around the corner.

The US Official Nintendo Magazine (as read by IGN) has promised there is "something very special lined up" for the next issue, due to hit the shops on 12th March.

Meanwhile, Nintendo has invited US journalists to attend a Media Summit in San Francisco on 24th February. Presentations, demos and hands-on playtests will be on offer.

So what could it be? New Zelda? New Mario? New Women's Murder Club? Nintendo's declining to comment, so it looks like we'll have to wait and see.

Obviously announcement of Nintendo's new handheld which likely won't be called a "DS". I _really_ hope they will announce some specific information about how powerful it will be, what hardware it will use and what graphics standard, stuff like that, to give developers a heads up.

One thing is for sure - copy protection like never seen before.

Seems like handheld possibly, although 4 different DS consoles have been released.

How about virtual reality glasses? ;D

I expect an official announcement for DSiXL, Classic Controller Pro, and little else.
However, there's a slight chance the mythical WiiHD will show up.
