According to a tweet from Nintendo’s UK Twitter account Mr Iwata will reveal new games for Wii U in a new edition of Nintendo Direct on Wednesday.
The special presentation will take place at 2pm GMT (about 9am EST) and it’s unclear if this will be specifically directed to the European Market or worldwide. There is no mention of the Direct on Nintendo.com nor from their Twitter or Facebook pages.
* Update: Nintendo of America sent out a tweet after this was published announcing it to the Americas.
Like every new game announcement rumours are running wild as to what the announcement will be. People have been throwing around everything from a new F-Zero, Wave Race or Mario Kart game.
Likely the most anticipated new title that people are hoping to be announced is GTA V. The game, which has only been announced for Xbox 360 and PS3, was just revealed to be possibly released on PC with a recent listing for the game on Amazon.fr in France.
