Yes!

Nintendo's really pulling out all the stops for this one. Expect a massive surge in 3DS sales in the near future.

Viva la 3DS!

I think we all know what's coming...

"Oh hai guyz we maed dis st00pid fing dat attaches to ur 3DS n maekz it moar g00der! Ok thx bai."

I'm sure they'll announce a few new games, but I doubt it's going to be the megaton the fans are hoping for (and if y'all will remember, even "megaton" turned out to just be a multiplayer remake of Pac-Man).

The 3DS is in the middle of being resurrected. The question is whether that process is about to be reversed.

Yep, and then they go third party developing games exclusively for the iOS, thereby ensuring Apple's thorough dominance over the video game market.

How can something be resurrected if it never died in the first place?

Anyway, I want more games. And I really need info on Kingdom Hearts DDD.

Bananas are the most popular fruit in the world. It's just unfortunate Bill Gates named his company Microsoft instead of Banana

Got 2 more rumors

  • Mach Rider Unchained, which is supposedly the new, major first-party title from Nintendo.
  • Baten Kaitos: Silence of a Mechanized Son, which would make sense based on recent speculation


From Nintendo3DSblog as well. I think that all of them for now. :P

Paper Mario doesn't have a release date yet. That's Super Mario 3D Land you're thinking about :P

Actually, according to a time zone converter 11 pm EST means 4:00 am in Portugal (which is in the same time zone as the UK)...so yeah, I'm pretty much screwed XD

I'm sorry :P I usually stay up that late anyway, so it wouldn't have been an issue for me, to be honest.

Not to nitpick your expertly made OP, charizard, but shouldn't the Etrian Odyssey announcement be higher up in likelihood? :P

It has been rumored since prior to the 3DS launch. I'm certain Atlus has been hard at work on that one. ;)

Apples are the most overrated fruit ever. There are like 10 fruits I would prefer to eat over any apple. Real talk.
