“Don’t ask! Even when the Wii launched we were developing new hardware, work on 3DS had already started. It’s a matter of when we announce it. Please wait. Be patient until we decide.”

Next week will be very, very interesting. Most Nintendo fans are assuming we’ll hear something about Project Cafe (or Stream… or Wii 2… whatever) at the company’s investor’s meeting next week, though that has not been confirmed. Even if Nintendo does acknowledge the console, I wouldn’t expect them to reveal many details until E3. I just want them to confirm the console’s existence!

The videos are somewhat low-quality since they were taken from a live stream. Still, it’s nice to see the game in action!

Miyamoto talks Super Mario 3DS, shares more details

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

This information comes from Shigeru Miyamoto…

“It’s a combination of Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario on N64. It won’t convey the message if I talk to you today, but if you play it at E3 that will give you more understanding of what I’m talking about. For example, the floors floating in space: in 2D it’s difficult to judge the distance, but in 3D it’s really easy. The tail you mentioned on the logo – it’s what you think it is. You probably know what’s going to happen using that character.”

In addition to the information above, Miyamoto said that the game is a cross between Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 64, is “completely original” and reiterated that Nintendo is looking to release the game this year.
