It was also speculated that Nintendo may share a few details about the upcoming gaming console at E3, which will be held from June 16-18, 2015.

It is a well-known fact that the Japanese business daily Nikkei reports unconfirmed and incorrect news while Nintendo generally denies every news regarding the company, despite of it being true eventually. This report can reportedly cause major confusion amongst the gamers who are eagerly waiting for the next release from Nintendo.
