With a stock bump up rumors are circulating Nintendo has something major to announce. Some people in the stock exchange are saying yes Nintendo America doesn't know either. This is coming straight from Japan so its all unofficial. Point is something is coming. Either a 3DS redesign or something more drastic. All I hope for is a 3DS with better battery. That's reason enough to get it. some of the crazier rumors are that they will drop the 3D and add another analog stick. wii.ign.com/articles/118/1189759p1.html |

I thought Nintendo officials said that there wouldn't be a 3DS redesign before like two years from now.
Then again, they often say shit that's subject to change. |

12:00: Looks like things are kicking off with a video of Zelda: Skyward Sword for Wii.
12:01: Shigeru Miyamoto comes out on stage bearing the Zelda sword and shield. He says that this is a 3DS conference, but he’d like to take a little bit of time to introduce Skyward Sword for Wii. It’s been 25 years since the release of the first Zelda game.
12:03: Moves on to talking about Four Swords, upcoming multiplayer Zelda for DSiWare download. And now he’s picking up the sword and shield again to explain Skyward Sword’s MotionPlus-driven realistic swordplay.
12:06: He’s showing a wide range of ways that the buttons and motion control of the MotionPlus controller can be used for very smooth action in Skyward Sword. Wow, he’s really running through a whole range of features very quickly: Items that can be powered up (improving a red potion so it restores more health, etc.), a machine that blows sand around so you can clear it off the floor…
12:10: He closes by talking about how they’re hoping players won’t have to think too hard about the sword play, that it’ll all be muscle memory.
12:11: Big teaser reel of lots of 3DS games that I assume they’ll be talking about in short order. Caught a glimpse of a new Love Plus, so you can have a virtual girlfriend!
12:12: Satoru Iwata takes the stage and says he’s going to talk very briefly first about major new Wii games coming this year. The Dragon Quest collection is coming out the day after tomorrow. Then there’s Just Dance, Go Vacation, Kirby for Wii and the latest Taiko Drum Master. Finally, there’s Skyward Sword in November. In December, there’s Fortune Street for Wii and Mario and Sonic go back to the Olympics. Plus Pokepark 2 towards the end of the year.
12:15: Starting in on Nintendo 3DS now. Nintendo 3DS doesn’t have as many female users as Nintendo’s other platforms, so Nintendo is introducing a “Misty Pink” colored console on October 20.
12:17: Nintendo is planning 3 major classes of upgrades to the Nintendo 3DS soon. It’ll be able to shoot 3D movies, something they’ve been working on since before it came out. They’re going to make major changes to the Street Pass Mii Plaza, and to the eShop, Iwata says. No details just yet on what those changes will be.
12:18: Moves right along to talking about the upcoming Super Mario 3D Land game and Mario Kart 7, two major titles coming within the year in Japan (and the US).
12:19: In addition to this, Iwata says Mario Tennis will be coming in 2012, using the gyro motion sensor. Paper Mario and Luigi’s Mansion 2 videos follow; these games are also slated for a release next year. And (of course) Mario and Sonic at the London Olympics for 3DS.
12:22: Animal Crossing is also coming for 3DS in 2012.
12:24: And a sequel to the popular Japan-only communication game Tomodachi Collection is also on the way. And another Girls Mode (the fashion game released in the US as Style Savvy), in 2012. Lots of content for girls, basically.
12:26: The announcements keep coming. Calchobit is an 8-bit styled online soccer game. There’s a version of the Culdcept card game. A new Fatal Frame with augmented reality features. A new Fire Emblem strategy RPG in 2012.
12:29: Getting special treatment is Dynasty Warriors Versus, a four-player version of the popular Koei action game set in feudal China.
12:31: Square Enix is making a new RPG called Bravely Default, which is possibly the greatest horrible name for a videogame not about heroic bankruptcies.
12:33: A new SD Gundam game will be out this year, by the end of December. And if you are a fan of virtual diva Hatsune Miku, a game featuring her robotic vocal stylings will be available in March 2012. Capcom is still making Resident Evil: Revelations. Bandai Namco is making Ace Combat. Tekken 3D will be out “this winter.”
12:36 — The game I care the most about, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, will also be out this winter. It’s a music game with classic Final Fantasy tunes. Slime Mori Mori Dragon Quest 3 will be out in November.
12:37: Level-5 will release Girls RPG Cinderella Life this year. Konami will release Love Plus this year. Lots of new games actually happening this calendar year, seems to be the big message. Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater this winter.
12:39: Talking up Kid Icarus. But it won’t be out until the first half of next year, Iwata says. There will be some original animation videos for the game which will be shown on the Nintendo Video service.
12:42: Finally, the big one: Showing a video of Monster Hunter on 3DS.
12:44: They’re taking their time on this one, obviously. Tsujimoto from Capcom takes the stage for a handshake photo op with Iwata and explains what’s new about this version of the extremely popular game.

I looked into it... There is some pretty cool stuff I'm pumped for. Especially the new Skyward Sword clips and info (50-100 hours!) that means at least 500 for me.  And also the release dates (Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7)... Aaaaaaaaaaand the fact that we'll soon be able to use the 3DS as a 3D Video Camera. I don't care much for the rest, though. |
