This information comes from director Hideo Kojima and other members of Konami, who were answering fan questions…

“We’re going to see what people think and feel. What [Kojima] is going to do, is decide the right direction. This was more of a 3D depth presentation. The real game won’t be like that. Your eyes get tired.”

Konami officially announced that a Metal Gear 3DS game would be coming to the system as “Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D The Naked Sample.” I know people were extremely impressed with the demo at E3, so hopefully Kojima will keep that in mind when deciding what to do with his project.

“Tomodachi Collection is something we’re really interested in bringing to the U.S. The problem is that we only built Japanese language generation into the software, and that’s a very important part of the game. We can’t make it work with English, so we won’t be able to release the game here. Obviously I can’t speak to future plans, but this seems like something we might be able to revisit once more powerful hardware comes along.” – Yoshi Sakamoto

Man, that’s really disappointing. I would have loved to play that! I wonder if there’s any possible way they could bring it, or some sort of different version, to the 3DS.

This information comes from Nikkei…

“As you carry it [the 3DS] with you while out and about, it will seek out and automatically connect with wireless LAN spots, and download information. We’re thinking about functionality where it will automatically acquire newspaper and magazine articles.” – Satoru Iwata

This sort of application should come as no surprise for those who’ve been keeping up with Nintendo’s expansion of the current DS platform into an information terminal here in Japan. The system can be used at select shopping centers, train stations and fast food chains to download information and mini games, play Wi-Fi Connect-ready DS software, and download game demos.

Hideki Konno was hinting at this functionality in an interview yesterday, though Iwata’s remarks make it seems even more likely that it’ll happen. In a way, if it happens, the 3DS could act like the News Channel on Wii (news articles are automatically downloaded if WiiConnect24 is on).
