Nintendo brews one last sWii-cret?

“Double, double,
Toil and trouble,
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble,
Something wicked this way comes!”

But in this case, the term “wicked” here would be taken in its positive connotation. Or will it? Oozing its slimy way to the top of a lot of forums and other websites is another rumor. And it’s making some gamers giddy like a child high on sugar after a trick-or-treat route, while some other people are taking the “news” with a grain of salt.

What the heck is this all about? GamePro has confirmed that Nintendo is holding back one last secret about the Wii which will be made known sometime around launch date. Whatever this “big secret” is, everyone’s been hush-hush about it. GamePro has this though:

Question: I recently went into a GameStop store… I began to discuss the Wii system with the manager… He explained Nintendo recently held a GameStop Managers kind of meet and greet for the Wii, with Reggie present. He also said Reggie announced there is still one more big secret left on the Wii, which will be revealed around launch. I called another store and the manager there said Reggie did in fact say such a thing… I have heard it is potentially a graphics solution or a camera attachment.

Answer [Rice Burner]: Wow, you’re up on your stuff. I can confirm that there was a GameStop retreat and Reggie did in fact say there will be another big Wii revelation around launch time.

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. We don’t want to hype things up and then be let down in the end. It’s entirely your choice if you’re going to get excited over this bit of news or not. Some, including us here in QJ, are speculating that it could be something about the WiiConnect24 or maybe the Virtual Console. Or maybe a new Wii Channel they haven’t revealed yet. For all we know, it could be something else entirely…

So, will Nintendo defy gravity with this big secret? That “Comment” link sure looks mighty useful right now, Donica think?
