Nintendo Gets Down To Business

Later today, Nintendo plans to reveal its upcoming Nintendo 64 line-up, including Banjo & Kazooie (a.k.a. Dream). In addition to showing off that game and others, members of the press will be treated to Nintendo's view of the state of the video game industry and its future marketing plans and strategic partnerships.

Nintendo is expected to show most of its 64-bit line-up that will fill the end of the year and continue into 1998. The company will show demos, never-before-seen footage, and games that have only been seen as pictures or video from Shoshinkai. Possible games to be included are F-Zero 64, Yoshi's Island 64, and Legend of Zelda 64. Nintendo of America chairman Howard Lincoln and executive vice president Peter Main will host the event.
