Is the 3DS Circle Pad attachment officially called the “slider pad”? That seems to be the case, as Nintendo of Europe provided that name in the Resident Evil: Revelations launch date announcement.

Here’s the relevant information from the press release:

“The game is also compatible with the new slider pad, a second circle pad with two more shoulder buttons, enabling you to interact with the environments in new ways.”


Okay… this is rather neat. Nintendo is asking fans in Europe who have a copy of Xenoblade Chronicles to make a “Let’s Play” video of the game. You can participate by uploading your video here.

What’s the prize, you ask? First place: A copy of The Last Story and Pandora’s Tower. Four runner-ups can choose either game of their choice.

You have until October 18. I’ve included the official PR below.
