Rumor: Retro Studios hints at news today

A Twitter account that claims to be from Retro Studios is teasing at something big. "We think you guys will be pleasantly surprised in just a few hours :)," the latest tweet (out of a grand total of two) reads. Of course, it could be a fake, but the possibility of Retro-related excitement is too wonderful to ignore.

Despite the departure of Retro senior staff to form Armature Studio, Retro is still in operation, as a Nintendo-owned developer. Which means that if there is some Retro news (beyond Metroid Prime Trilogy, which we know is Nintendo-related), it'll probably be related to Nintendo, as well. Odd, then, that the pleasant surprise is supposed to happen today, when Nintendo's keynote doesn't happen until tomorrow.
