Nintendo confirms 3DS conference pre-TGS

Nintendo has confirmed reports that it plans to hold a 3DS-focused trade event just days before the Tokyo Game Show kicks off next month. That's according to the Wall Street Journal (via Edge), which reports that the September 13 event will be open to analysts, investors and press, but not consumers.The announcement of the press conference perhaps boosts the creditability of a new report claiming Nintendo's set to launch redesigned 3DS hardware, complete with a second analogue stick and "radicarmtloned down" 3D visuals.
