I didn't watch Konami's event last night(5P.M. PST but 1A.M. here) but I do have a suspicion as to what's happening. It's actually the same suspicion I have about Sonic Generations' lack of announcement for a Nintendo home console.
Absolutely no software has been announced yet for Nintendo's new machine and this suggests to me that the reason is that noone's allowed to announce software for it yet. Sonic Generations isn't coming to the Wii because according to SEGA it's for HD formats. The new machine is said to be in HD so it makes sense that SEGA aren't announcing the format. They're simply not allowed to yet. It's the only plausible explanation.
Konami's conference seemed like it was missing some very big Nintendo related announcements and this could be because they're not allowed to announce anything right now.
Will they announce something? Well... going by patterns we can probably expect a brief video clip where Hideo Kojima briefly comments on the new Nintendo hardware when it's announced.
In any case, stuff like this is secretly stockpiling and will be let loose in a huge outburst when the big reveal happens next Tuesday.
