Iwata To Present Keynote at GDC 2009 on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata will return to the GDC stage offering a new Keynote speech.

On Wednesday March 25th, 9-10AM, the cheery Japanese chap will be discussing "Discovering New Development Opportunities" with fellow developers and publishers. Given Nintendo's increasing fortune and success with both the Wii and DS, this seems to be one not to miss! Iwata's last keynote at GDC was back in 2006, where he discussed "disruptive development", where he outlined Nintendo's aims to bridge the gap between hardcore and newer players.

GDC has been known to house new game/hardware announcements from Nintendo, and with the company's Wii line-up this year look a little slim, there may be a few surprises in store this March..

Can't wait for this!

I can wait... nothing special is going to be announced, I can tell you that nearly 100%.

Even if nothing does get announced, this should still be interesting. Me likes these talks.

I think this will be a sleeper. The real announcement may be the first game to use the new hint system and how it is the aforementioned "bridge."

Maybe detailing their "solution" to the Wii memory problem they promised would arrive in Spring? Smilie

Nintendo always likes to reveal surprises so I'm looking forward to it.

On the second day they may show something behind closed doors, but I doubt we will hear of it unless something gets leaked. E3 is the place for big revelations of that kind.
