Hand-Held System Continues to Offer New Experiences to Users as Original Releases in Key Franchises and Online-Enabled Offerings Highlight Key 2012 Content

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Momentum for the Nintendo 3DS hand-held system continues to build. Tonight, during a special Nintendo All-Access 3DS Software Showcase @ E3 2012 event at the Los Angeles Convention Center, Nintendo shared new information about upcoming Nintendo 3DS games that will launch in 2012, as well as downloadable content in the Nintendo eShop.

“Millions upon millions of people already know that the best portable gaming content is found on Nintendo systems,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Games from Nintendo and our third-party partners, plus the growing selection of downloadable titles in the Nintendo eShop, will help even more people discover the unique variety of entertainment available only on Nintendo 3DS in 2012 and beyond.”

Game information revealed at the event includes:


Update 2: Sounds like Reggie let this one slip! He didn’t realize that Fire Emblem 3DS wasn’t in the press kit until after he stopped talking.

Update: Another confirmation from IGN’s Rich George – see this Twitter link.

Kotaku’s Jason Schreier is stating that Fire Emblem: Awakening is due for release in North America. Apparently Reggie Fils-Aime confirmed the news just moments ago.

Now, assuming Reggie didn’t screw up and this isn’t true somehow, wouldn’t this have been good to mention during Nintendo’s E3 2012 media briefing or software showcase?
