It's possible, but I doubt it. A lot more information would leak before their announcements if that were the case. Nintendo is famous for being tight-lipped for a reason.EDIT: They're not like Sony, where ALL their specs or photos for multiple upcoming platforms leak out months in advance of the platform's announcement. Now THAT'S more suspicious for sanctioned leakage.
