What we all have been waiting for since E3 is going to finally happen! According to Satoru Iwata, President for Nintendo, the launch will take place during Tokyo Game Show on September 16th.

That's when Mr. Iwata himself will make the keynote speech and unveil the controller to the public.
During the speech, he will be showing off the Revolution in full, meaning all hardware details, the controller itself and its connection to the Revolution and other system functions will be made available. There will also be a demonstration of the controller's capabilities, headlined by Mario 128, any other game being unknown at this point.

There are some rumors on the new Smash Brothers to be a part of the actual demonstration, but as far as we know, they are still working on this game and no one could tell at this point for certain if we're about to assist to a historical Nintendo double-launch.

As for the users, they are holding their breath on this one. But according to many of them, this announcement could be just another false alarm, as Sponge, the news source, has failed on guessing the exact date and conditions of launch two times before. But hey, maybe third time is indeed a charm!

Yeah, sponge is sponge, dunno if they are always right... But I would say a 70% chance of this being true...

I will only say 70 because:

1.) They dont want their ideas jacked by Sony or Micro, although its not likely that micro would steal anything cause they are done with their system almost...

2.) Nintendo does not have a history of unvieling much info at previous TGSs.

3.) The more hype, be it positive or negative, the more the systems name gets out...

But I also say 70 percent because:

1.) The press and the media has been dying to see what is up their sleeve for the next gen.

2.) Their stockholders are becoming restless...

3.) It makes a good teamup for the DS and the Rev for the NINTENDO CONNECT (DS going online, then Revolution online) and will likely help sales for the DS shoot up even higher.
4.) Everyones exited and the longer they sit on their secrets, the less they are able to become the first ones to reveal new info before the media and the people get their hands on it...
5.) Because nintendo can earn itself people who will wait for the system to come out and save their money and NOT buy an Xbox...
6.) Because they want to bring on the business pressure and make Sony sweat...
