Earlier this week, Nintendo announced that the standard New 3DS will finally be making its way to North America as part of a bundle with Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer. GameStop put up pre-orders on its website shortly after the news came in, but the package has now sold out.

I don’t believe that the Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer New 3DS bundle is a GameStop exclusive. If we hear about other retailers taking pre-orders, we’ll let you know when they become available.

Dementium: The Ward originally launched on DS back in October 2007. Later this year, the game will be available on the 3DS eShop with several improvements in the form of Dementium Remastered.

Here’s what Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham says players can look forward to with the new version:

“New gameplay difficulty options include Normal, Hard, and Demented. We’ve added a manual save system (adopted from Dementium II). Enemies no longer respawn; a dead zombie stays dead! A lot of time and attention has been spent on increasing texture resolution, adding specular, detail, and normal maps to enemies and environments. Cut-scenes have all been re-rendered using new remastered enemy/environment art (not autostereoscopic 3D, though, to save on ROM size)”

You can get a look at Dementium Remastered’s new title screen above. If you use the QR code with your 3DS, you can view it in 3D.

Over the past few years, NST has been known for working on Nintendo titles Mario vs. Donkey Kong. But it’s possible that the studio could be getting its feet wet in the mobile space as well.

On Nintendo’s job listings website, a post has been put up for a mobile game developer software engineer over at NST. This person will “play a key role in helping Nintendo build fun and engaging mobile applications and games as a member of NST’s game team.” Additionally, they must also possess “working knowledge of iOS and/or Android SDK’s.”
