Reggie not ready to discuss new 3DS model
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
This information comes from Reggie Fils-Aime…
“It’s interesting. We haven’t even sold the first one and consumers are asking about what’s next. I answer it this way. The 3DS is our key handheld device. It is going to be our key business driver for the balance of this year, through the holidays.”
I’d be shocked if we didn’t see another version of the 3DS somewhere down the line. Personally, I’d like to see better battery life and moving the stylus area so that it’s positioned like the DSi. It’s definitely too early to be talking about this, though…
3DS obtains best first-day sales for a Nintendo handheld
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Although we don’t know just how well the 3DS performed on launch day, there’s no question that it sold very well. Nintendo has said that the new handheld has become their best-selling portable in North America in terms of day-one sales. First week sales will be revealed on April 14 via NPD.
“More details about U.S. sales numbers will be made public on April 14, when first-week U.S. sales figures will be tallied by the independent NPD Group. Nintendo worked hard to get as much product as possible to retailers on day one to meet demand, and we will continue with these efforts moving forward.”

Dead or Alive: Dimensions boxart gets censored
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
It appears that the boxart for Dead or Alive: Dimensions was a bit too risqué. Temco Koei has been forced to modify the title’s packaging to cover up Kasumi’s thigh. According to Destructoid, the ESRB asked for the change. The image on the left features the original boxart while the right picture is what you’ll see on retail shelves.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time a Tecmo Koei game received a boxart censor. The new image for Samurai Warriors 3’s art covered Kaihime’s chest area in the North American version.
Thanks to Steve for the tip!

Hideki Konno discussing Nintendo’s interest in 3D…
“[Playing games in 3-D] is something that we’ve been continually testing and working on at Nintendo. We’ve never actually stopped looking at 3-D as a viable product. And it just so happens that the technology in the marketplace now coincides with what we wanted to do. So actually, it was just very fortuitous timing.”
Hideki Konno on the Virtual Boy…
“When we launched Virtual Boy, we thought it would work. It’s trial and error. We made mistakes. And we build on mistakes.”
