Nintendo announced Project Cafe today with this carefully worded message:

Right smack dab in the middle they say, "We will show a playable model of the new system and announce more specifications at the E3 Expo," which everyone has latched on to as confirmation that Project Cafes will line Nintendo's booth and everyone will be able to get their grubby hands on this fabled system and its magical new controller.

I disagree. That statement seems to have been written by a master lawyer -- a modern day magician of lies -- in the way that sets up expectations without promising anything. Playable model? Who speaks like that? Deceivers, that's who. My bet is that Nintendo shows off the hardware itself and some early, prototype games running on a giant screen. And that's it. There will be no controller reveal, and the press will not get their hands on this system. It's not coming out for 18 months, after all, and they wouldn't want to get everyone excited now only to make them wait forever before they can actually spend their money.

I hope I'm wrong and Nintendo floods the LA Convention Center with amazing new games. But in reality, I think they'll focus on that new Zelda game for the Wii and a sackload of snazzy new 3DS games. Either way, I'm intrigued.

Oh, and shout out to Shaun McInnis for coming up with the best name ever for their new system: Dolphin Revolution. It sells itself!
