On two sites, two mysterious timers have appeared, signaling the announcements of somthing possibly massive. The people at Kotaku compair both timers to be similar to Legend of Zelda, and Super Mario Brothers, even though the two developers are Sega Japan, and Marvelous Entertainment (Never heard of them before this, or if I have I can't remember).
In any case, one timer is set to hit 0 friday night, the other.... I fiddled around and I'm guessing Midnight of Thursday (As in the instant it turns into friday, timezone unsure). We'll be finding out about this soon. Until then, feel free to speculate.

http://kotaku.com/5136746/sega-is-counting-down-to-a-wiiware-game Okay, even though the timers haven't run out, Sega's game has been revealed in an issue of Famitsu Magizine, a wiiware game. I don't see what this has to do with that mushroom timer though... Wait, is that the Super Mario Bros castle in the 7 screenshot?

If the timers are for a game for the Wii, the timers may signal the date at which the developers will announce to the world that they're cancelling their games... Hopefully.

8 bit? Are you serious? I'm a gamer and being so, I am quite open to new games, but 8bit? A countdown for an 8bit game?
