Yeah I just posted on this. You did a better job. That tweet has now been deleted and it says focuses on the concept behind Wii U. So I think someone at NOA twitter account jumped the gun

Why do you say box?

Someone from Nintendo (might have been Reggie) at E3 last year said in an interview that the unveiling was focussed on the controller because that was the new defining experience and that the console is just a box that houses hardware.

So I've been calling the console the box ever since.

Please search and see if there is already a thread about a topic before you make one of your own. It helps to clean up the forums!

They could show off the Wii U System As Well. Hopefully it's better than the demo one. Like maybe a bigger system (XBOX 360 level Or PS3.) We're down to 60 hours now. Nintendo Direct better be a good show this round. I Cant wait for Tuesday 12:00PM EDT they better have a lot to tell us about games and system plus online and Wii U Menu. getting hyped guys? I Am

And you should be. This is a great time to be a gamer and Nintendo fan. We are about to witness a gaming revolution. This console will be what the wii was aiming to be and hopefully it can sell just as much in its lifespan

Whilst I kind of like the simplistic design of the Wii and the Wii U, I have a feeling that we'll see a redesign of Wii U because Nintendo will want to avoid the confusion that many people seem to have about Wii U being the same as Wii and not a completely new console.

Besides, last E3 Nintendo had to rush showing off the new controller because people had already posted images of it online, so it's likely that the console was not the final design.

They'll show off Smash Bros., obviously.

OK, OK.... They'll probably talk about all the features of the Wii U and it's controller. Hopefully reassure everyone about power... that sort of thing.

We'll probably still have to wait until after E3 for that.
