SEGA will be streaming their press conferences via UStream, thus they have a schedule. You know, so you can call in sick at work to watch Nagoshi pimp out some Yakuza games. But that is not all, there are three press conferences that say ‘coming soon’.
One of those ‘coming soon’ confrences lands on September 16th and if you saw that Valkyria Chronicles 3 teaser last time, you will know it said “Not to be open till 9.16”.
My guess is that the three games will be Valkyria Chronicles 3, Red Entertainment’s newest project (Sakura Wars 6?) and Sakai’s PSO 10th anniversary project (PSO2?). Hit the jump for the Ustream schedule.
Thursday 9/16, 11:00 – 11:40
Black Panther Yakuza Completion Ceremony, featuring appearances by Toshihiro Nagoshi, members of the voice staff, Anne Nakamura and other idols (including the pole dancer), and music group Rize. This will also serve as an announcement press conference for the Black Panther TV showThursday 9/16, 12:30 – 13:00
Yakuza Of the End Production Press Conference, featuring Toshihiro Nagoshi and the seven winning hostesses. Sega held a similar press conference at last year’s TGS for Yakuza 4.Thursday 9/16, 14:00 – 14:30

Go sega!!!
wow!! but I wouldn't expect too much from those 3 free slots… maybe one is only a shitty Monkey Ball for the 3DS 😉
are those times for Japan or already for US?
Three blanks but 4 possible coming games…
Valkyria Chronicles 3
Phantasy Star Online -next-
Sakura Taisen -next-
Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown
I hoped we'd finally see the game Ryuuta Ueda was working on, or at least the new PlatinumGames title.
But Valkyria 3, new PSO, and Final Showdown is a pretty damn good too.
Not sure about Sakura Wars, never tried the series.
Most probably you're right about the 3 games but still hoping for some hey chu chu announcement >.<
I fear that the three live events "comong soon" are all for one game, that is Val3, because in the SEGA official japanese page, almost all events are repeated more than once 🙁
About Ryuta Ueda Pao, i would be wrong but he may have quitted SEGA already two years ago(this according to its LinkedIn profile) :(((
