Lately there has been some concern about Kid Icarus: Uprising seeing a worldwide delay. Don’t worry, though! It’s true that the title is supposedly due out next year in Europe, but it looks like Masahiro Sakurai’s next game is still launching in North America this year.

Nintendo’s June NPD response contained the following blurb:

“This holiday season, Nintendo will offer something for everyone with fan-favorite titles including Super Mario™, Mario Kart™, Kid Icarus™: Uprising, Star Fox 64™ 3D and The Legend of Zelda™: Skyward Sword.”

Nintendo is a sneaky bunch. Despite not including it in their press update earlier today, Nintendo has released Super Earth Defense Force as a Virtual Console download on the Wii Shop Channel.

Nintendo of America posted the following message on their Twitter account a couple of hours ago:

“Super NES classic Super Earth Defense Force moves to the Virtual Console. It’s now available for download on the Wii Shop Channel.”

Super Earth Defense Force is available now for 800 Wii Points.

After less than two weeks on store shelves, The Legend of Zelda™: Ocarina of Time™ 3D for the Nintendo 3DS™ portable entertainment system finished the month as the No. 2 best-selling video game on an individual platform, with more than 283,000 units sold, according to the independent NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States.

Other highlights from the month include:

How did the first major 3DS game sell? According to NPD analyst Anita Frazier, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D moved 280,000 units in June. The tracking period included sales starting from May 29 to July 2.

3DS hardware sales saw a small increase based on data calculated from Anita’s comments. Zelda saw a 34 percent attach rate to the install base, which means that the handheld sold roughly 134,000 units last month.

In May, the 3DS reached only 97,000 new consumers. Indeed, June saw a bump-up in system sales, but it doesn’t appear that Zelda has become a significant system seller… at least not yet. Having said that, Ocarina of Time 3D is likely the most successful 3DS title in the U.S. thus far.

Assassin’s Creed: Lost Legacy was originally announced at Nintendo’s E3 2010 media briefing. However, much like Saints Row: Drive By, it appears that another Western game for the 3DS has been canned. Assassin’s Creed Revelations writer Darby McDevitt says that the Lost Legacy “kind of morphed into” the latest console game for PS3/360.

“You may have heard of the game ‘Lost Legacy’ for the 3DS. It was announced, but that kind of morphed into this idea.”

A couple of Assassin’s Creed DS titles did make it to market, so it’s possible that Ubisoft will bring the franchise to the 3DS in the future. I’d say that Lost Legacy is no more, though.
