Nintendo conducted its 75th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders a couple of weeks back. The event featured some brief opening remarks from president Satoru Iwata, but the main highlight was the Q&A. Nintendo now has the entire transcript up in English here.

We already covered the Q&A in-depth last month, so we won’t be posting all of the information here. However, I’ll be picking out a few highlights throughout the day.

Thanks to Thomas for the tip.

Dragon Quest VIII contains a new dungeon and boss on 3DS, “big title” reveal from Jump next week

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

According to the latest issue of Jump, Dragon Quest VIII on 3DS will feature an additional dungeon. Jahagaros, a new boss monster, is located here. You can view a scan from the magazine above that provides a look at the new box art illustrated by Akira Toriyama.

Jump is also teasing the reveal of a “big title” for its next issue due out next week. Since it’s on the Dragon Quest VIII page, it should be something related to Dragon Quest. It’s unclear if the game in question is for Nintendo platforms.

Super Mario Maker won’t have an inherent content filter, so players can potentially upload any kind of level. Should other users find a level offensive or inappropriate, however, they can report that level. The level will then be reviewed by Nintendo who will decide whether to take it down or not.
