Although the Twitter message above pertains to France, it goes along nicely with another rumor we heard. IGN’s Rich George indicated last week that we would be seeing “a flood of information” about the 3DS in late January. The 19th is fairly late in January, so if this latest tease is the real deal, it’s very likely that Nintendo will be sharing 3DS launch information and other details about the system.

Here’s a rough translation of the Twitter post above…

“Nintendo France has a mysterious teaser press event in Amsterdam on January 19 … 3DS? Other?”

Mighty Milky Way (DSi) – E
505 Tangram (DSi) – E
Gardens (3DS) – E

A few of you might be very interested in Mighty Milky Way. Why, you ask? Well, the game is being developed by WayForward! You can check out a description of the DSiWare title below:

“This is an action-puzzle game in which players help a green-skinned alien navigate toward warp portal exits. Players avoid hazards (e.g., pink puff balls, electric barriers) and create planets to use as jumping platforms. At the end of each level, players must dodge laser beams shot from a robotic T-Rex; the dinosaur sinks off-screen amid small explosions when defeated.”

This information comes from Nintendo’s Yoshio Koizumi…

“I’ve been making 3D Mario games up to now, and it’s been difficult to grab or ride on objects floating in midair with these sorts of games since the beginning,” said Koizumi. “But if the Nintendo 3DS system can produce a sense of distance that can be easily understood at a glance, I feel I’ll be able to more confidently create the tense stages that require you to jump from platform to platform in midair without falling. There’s still a whole range of things I’ll be able to do with Mario games in the future.”

I’m really interested to see what a 3D Mario would look like on the 3DS. There were actually a few rumors that Nintendo was working on a game similar to Super Mario 64 DS for the system, but nothing ever happened. I’ve always wondered what an original Mario title would look like on a handheld…

Wondering which engine is powering Mega Man Legends 3? It should be familiar to fans who have been keeping up with the news for the Resident Evil 3DS games. Like Revelations and The Mercenaries 3D, Legends 3 is using the MT Framework. Director Eguchi quietly shared the news at the end of a blog post for the title. Legends 3 is most likely using the Mobile version of Capcom’s MT Framework engine, which is being used in a number of the company’s other 3DS games.

“By the by, it bears mentioning that Mega Man Legends 3 will be developed using Capcom’s pride-and joy MT Framework! To explain it simply, MT Framework is Capcom’s exclusive game engine. To put it even more simply, it’s sort of a set of “high-performance game-making tools” we at Capcom developed ourselves (although to be more accurate, it’s something else). Sort of a tricky subject, but I’m hoping I’ll have a chance to have the programmers tell you a little more about all that in the future.”

In other Mega Man Legends 3 news, a winner has been chosen for the Bonne Mecha contest:
