Nintendo provided a bit more detail today about its pre-TGS event on September 13. The "Nintendo 3DS Conference 2011" will be a "product announcement conference," which doesn't really tell us what kind of product. Still, we'd bet more on "some new games" than "new hardware," unless there's another color variant or something.

Best of all, you won't have to be in Tokyo to find out what's going on. Nintendo will stream the event on Ustream and Nico Nico, allowing even those of us who can't make it into the Tokyo Big Site to get the news as it happens. It's September 13 at 12 noon in Japan, which translates to September 12 at 11PM Eastern time.
