After days of rampant rumors, Nintendo has confirmed that they will be releasing a new game console sometime in 2012. The company also announced that their next-gen, which is speculated to be codenamed "Project Cafe," will make its debut at E3 this June.
"We will show a playable model of the new system and announce more specifications at the E3 Expo, which will be held June 7-9, 2011, in Los Angeles," the company said in a brief statement.
No additional details were announced from Nintendo, but the past week has led to many claims of what their next console will look like and how powerful it will be. Everything from a tablet-shaped controller, to being "significantly more powerful" than the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 have been cited from various unknown sources.
According to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, the company would like to propose "a new approach to home video game consoles" with the Wii's successor. Whether or not this means that Nintendo's next console will utilize downloadable-only content remains to be a mystery. With E3 2012 set for June 7-9 in Los Angeles, we could be seeing another great show in the making. More information about Nintendo's next home console are sure to trickle in as E3 approaches.Let the rampant speculation continue.
PSN Down Due to 'External Intrusion'
Sony has confirmed that 'external intrusion' is the reason that the Playstation Network has been down since Wednesday. Playstation spokesman Peter Seybold has released the following statement:
An external intrusion on our system has affected our PlayStation Network and Qriocity services. In order to conduct a thorough investigation and to verify the smooth and secure operation of our network services going forward, we turned off PlayStation Network & Qriocity services on the evening of Wednesday, April 20th. Providing quality entertainment services to our customers and partners is our utmost priority.
Hacker group Anonymous insists that they are not responsible for the outage. There is still no word when Sony plans on bringing PSN back online.
This really could not have happened at a worst time. With the releases of Portal 2, Socom 4 and Mortal Kombat this week, gamers everywhere are forced to sit and wait the situation out. Hopefully all can be resolved soon.
