Yeah, you're all wondering where this major announcement is. What's the deal huh? Rarenet said last week there would be this big wonderful announcement...yadda yadda. Then it was supposed to be today, or was it yesterday? I forget. Now people are hinting at Thursday. SO WHAT THE HELL IS THE DEAL? IGN had this little story on their site as a teaser.

Well the speculation in the Forums is running as rampant as a bunch of rabbits in the hot July sun! Hop in there. :) (Damn that was bad) Anyhoo, I'd tell you more but Nintendo's just pulled up and have given me a .....
