This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following featured content:

Nintendo eShop
Order Up!! – Experience the dizzying life of a top-notch chef and restaurateur. Prepare all manner of exotic food on your way to building your own restaurant empire from the ground up. (For Nintendo 3DS)

Virtual Console
Double Dragon II – Billy and Jimmy Lee are back to avenge the loss of Marion. In their quest to defeat the evil Shadow Warriors, they must face down deadly street gangs, ninjas and huge mutant fighters. (For Wii)



Today’s Nintendo Direct has become a worldwide affair. It’s now confirmed that a unique presentation will be held in Japan, North America, and Europe.

The Japanese presentation begins at 11:00 PM EDT – more information about that here. An hour later, the North American and European events will be shown.

That’s kind of a problem as it’s not easy to watch two events at once! But don’t worry: we’ll be here to cover everything as it happens.

You’ll be able to watch the North American Nintendo Direct here.


Three Nintendo Directs in the same month?! That’s right, Nintendo of Japan isn’t the only one hosting a live-stream tomorrow if this tweet by Satoru Shibata, president of Nintendo of Europe is anything to go by.

The presentation will be streaming on Nintendo’s website an hour after Iwata’s Japanese one. Though the focus will be on the Nintendo 3DS, it wouldn’t surprise me if a few upcoming Wii games like Project Zero: Wii Edition are mentioned.

Nintendo of America, care to bring the number of presentations to four?

Two Nintendo Directs in the same month?! Indeed, it’s happening, in Japan at least!

Unlike the last, “special” broadcast, the latest event will focus only on 3DS and Wii information. Sorry, no Wii U updates for you!

A live-stream will be available at 11:00 PM EDT / 8:00 PM PDT tomorrow. We’ll post a live-stream on the site once its ready to go.
