Nintendo people will not be divulging any information about its upcoming activities the Game Developers Conference. This may be a major disappointment for Ninty fans, but Nintendo developers have a reason for doing so. The game developer giant has an upcoming major stock trade, and any inside information regarding the status of the company will greatly affect investor behavior.

It's been announced that Nintendo developer Shigeru Miyamoto will be delivering the keynote address to the upcoming GDC, but it's still uncertain how this "gag order" will affect his speech. Nintendo developers Eiji Aonuma and Koji Kondo will also be speaking at press conferences, but the gag order extends to them, as well as to other Nintendo executives including Reggie Fils-Aime and Perrin Kaplan.

This does not mean that the Nintendo people will completely remain mum on the GDC. The developers are allowed to talk about past projects of the company, but not about the upcoming titles. We just all have to be patient and see what Nintendo will come up in the next few months, or see if they really will keep their promise and not say anything new from March 5 to 9.
