The meeting is unashamedly focused on the Wii U, and while the more recent handheld 3DS launched in February 2011, the Wii and DS before it launched in late November, timed to co-incide with the US’s annual Black Friday shopping bonanza.
Both the Nintendo 3DS and the Wii were subject to similar events, also hosted by Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime.
While Sony pushes the portable PlayStation Vita and Microsoft expands the Xbox 360′s focus with media-streaming deals and the Kinect motion sensor, both are expected to reveal successors to the PS3 and 360 in 2013.
