Reggie was a surprise. I was expecting Miyamoto. Then suddenly, Reggie starts speaking Japanese and I almost fell of my chair laughing.

Yes very awkward, the whole conversation was awkward. Anyway, I am pleased with this ND and from what they have shown us the menu and features look good.

Sweet - I was hoping the Nintendo Network Premium service wasn't limited to account like xbox live is - it's nice to know if someone else makes an account on my system they get the same features!

Now if only we could import games....I want the Karaoke service..but I want to go nuts singing JPOP and KPOP - as I often already do! lol

Wara Wara Plaza is the name in Japanese, as Iwata explained at e3. More akin to MiiVerse Plaza in the West.
Just wanted to correct your first sentence.

Haven't watched all the video yet, but looks like we got a lot of information, finally.

That icon between NSMBU and Nintendo Land...is it me, or is that an 8bit Heihachi Mishima?

Either way, the plaza is looking pretty good.
