This fall, Nintendo has a shiny new option for consumers seeking a hand-held entertainment device that matches their personal sense of style. On Sept. 18, the range of hardware colors for the portable Nintendo DSi XL™ system grows to include Metallic Rose, an eye-catching shade of pink with a luminous modern sheen. For kids eager to head back to school in style or busy adults with an appetite for on-the-go entertainment, this new color option rolls fun and fashion into one irresistible package.
Nintendo DSi XL features two 4.2-inch screens that are 93 percent larger than those of the Nintendo DS™ Lite system, giving users a brilliant view of their favorite games and applications and providing a wider viewing angle that lets friends and family members share in the fun. In addition to two built-in cameras, Facebook™ photo integration and pre-loaded software including Flipnote Studio™, Brain Age™ Express: Math, Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters and Photo Clock, Nintendo DSi XL also offers access to an ever-growing variety of downloadable content via the Nintendo DSi Shop (broadband Internet access required).

Square Enix TGS 2011 map released, includes mysterious location

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

Square Enix has shared a map of their booth for the Tokyo Game Show next week. For the most part, there aren’t any surprises. The map is filled with titles that the company has previously announced, including Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. Partner games are featured on the map as well.

However, there is one mystery area that should be pointed out. It’s a fairly large circle area with a “???” mark attached.

Could it be related to this new teaser site? Or perhaps it’s Final Fantasy: 4 Warriors of Light 2, which has been rumored for several weeks.

Kojima Productions has the new 3DS Circle Pad attachment

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

Kojima Productions revealed on the latest episode of the KP Report that the company has obtained Nintendo’s 3DS Circle Pad attachment. This should put any and all speculation to rest that the add-on was created specifically for Monster Hunter Tri G.

Unfortunately, we don’t know how long the studio has had access to the peripheral. It also isn’t clear if Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D will take advantage of the accessory.

Below are some of the relevant comments from the podcast in which the Circle Pad peripheral was discussed:

“I saw it today in the office. I mean I’m sure it’ll enhance gameplay… it’s a little big.” – Christopher Johns

“It feels good I think… it feels good. It’s just it’s an add-on, so I think the only concern is how will that kind of split through the users. Because there are people who are gonna wanna just carry around a really portable 3DS and then maybe only the really hardcore guys want to play some FPSs on there or something will maybe want to get that attachment.” – Sean Eyeston

“I don’t know if people want to carry it around, right? That might be the tough part.” – Christopher Johns

“It is kind of big.” – Sean Eyeston

“I think it adds a new level to gameplay, so it’s definitely worth it.” – Christopher Johns

“Gameplay-wise I think it definitely adds a lot. It’s just size-wise and I guess aesthetics, right?” – Sean Eyeston

“For those who do play for long periods of time, I think that will win over a lot of people…” – Christine Kogure
