Rumor: SNES games planned for the 3DS VC
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 10 Comments
Nintendo may have plans to bring SNES games to the Virtual Console on 3DS. While there isn’t any sort of concrete proof, accessing Miiverse from the handheld and checking out the Contra III: The Alien Wars community shows the game running on a 3DS XL in the header. No SNES titles are currently available on 3DS (including Contra III), so this is an interesting finding for sure.

KAIO: King of Pirates launching next year
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Marvelous AQL has handled KAIO: King of Pirates rather strangely. It was announced over two years ago, but we’ve barely seen or heard anything about the project.
But fear not! It’s still in development. The game’s website was recently updated with a note that it’s coming in 2014… hopefully, anyway. With any luck, we’ll be seeing Mega Man creator Keiji Inafune’s 3DS title in the future.
3DS firmware update version 7.0.0 out now
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 16 Comments
Update: Full patch can be found after the break.
Nintendo has released the latest firmware update – version 7.0.0-13 – for the 3DS, and it’s a big one.
First, Miiverse is now fully supported on the 3DS. After installing the new firmware, you should see a new icon on the home menu that will allow you to access the online community.
Today’s update also brings about Nintendo Network IDs on the 3DS. Names registered on Wii U can now be used on the 3DS and eShop balances can be combined. Alternatively, a Nintendo Network ID can be created from scratch.
A StreetPass update is also available, though we’re not quite sure what it adds at present.

Bravely Default can be completed without random encounters
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 4 Comments
Bravely Default does offer random encounters, but that doesn’t mean players actually have to get involved with this element if they’re not interested. The game includes a slider that can be set as low as -100% or as high as 100% (0% being the standard) for random battles based on user preference.
One player in Japan managed to complete Bravely Default without a single random encounter. Even better, not a single piece of DLC (SP Drinks) was purchased.
The total play time? 20 hours and 25 minutes, on Easy mode. That goes to show how flexible Bravely Default is in terms of play time – you won’t be forced to go through a 40-50 hour RPG.

Target will be selling 3DS XL systems for $150 on Sunday
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Starting on Sunday, most (if not all) 3DS XL systems will be on sale for $150. We’re not quite sure if the Zelda bundle is included at this time. Still, if you missed out on the Black Friday sale and are still interested in picking up a 3DS XL, now would be the time to do so!
