In Reggie's speech, he mentions several games, Brawl among them.

Later, Reggie mentions that the press present will soon be "upstairs demoing these games."

Did he just mean in general, or have the press just demoed Brawl today? Friday can't come quick enough.
what's so special about friday?

Apparently that's when the embargo on the Nintendo Summit lifts. Meaning all the news, other than Reggie's speech, can be released. Meaning if Brawl was demoed, we'll find out about it then.

Apparently. And it's not random. It's sourced a couple of times somewhere in this thread.

Well.. my guess why it wouldn't be playable?
It might reveal TOO much.
They may want to reveal things only on the official website with videos and images.

But that doesn't mean a video won't be shown later tonight at the summit.
It's only 7:56pm there.. almost 8pm.

For all we know, they could get us overexcited and not update the site in a while.

That would suck.

Searching for my own way of the ninja.
They said they're going to update it every weekday.

That means by this tomorrow, there should be another post.

If Sakurai holds true to that commitment, we should be seeing periodic news--I think a daily blog would help keep hype up a LOT more than releasing bigger chunks over longer periods of time.

****, no Brawl?

...but the logic possibly says there might be a trailer. I imagine demoing Brawl wouldn't be savvy unless it was with the Smash Pros.

That or they might save the Brawl info for the site. We do know it's coming this year for the U.S and Japan.

I would think that if they had a trailer on the second day of the summit, it would end up on the official site.

So maybe the start of the new site will see a new trailer after all? (but after the immediate launch)

Just like how we concluded Brawl wasn't at E3 2006 after the first day?

Let the summit run it's course and the embargo lifted, then we'll see if it was there or not.

You seriously annoy me when you do that. I literally expect you every time to come and reply to my post whenever I get the feeling something's up. -___-

But you're right.

Is there any confirmation this summit goes two days? IGN is talking about it in the past tense already.

Also, the embargo was only lifted for Reggie's speech. All other coverage is still kept under wraps for now.
