I don’t think there was any doubt about this at this point, but yes: Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros. Zelda, and Smash Bros. will all be appearing at E3 next month. Nintendo reconfirmed the news in its NPD response today.

The excerpt states:

“At the upcoming E3 trade show in June in Los Angeles, Nintendo expects to show attendees upcoming Wii U games from the Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda and Super Smash Bros. franchises.”

Mario Kart Wii U and the new 3D Mario title for Wii U will be playable. Super Smash Bros. will be shown in at least image form, while the Zelda reference is likely pointing to the Link to the Past sequel for 3DS.

A strong launch for LEGO®City Undercover: The Chase Begins helped Nintendo 3DS™ maintain its torrid pace in 2013. Through the first four months of the year, Nintendo has already sold more than 2.1 million units of first-party Nintendo 3DS software in the U.S. alone, an increase of 52 percent over the same time period last year. In 2012, it took 30 weeks for Nintendo 3DS to sell 2 million units of first-party software. In 2013, the platform accomplished that same feat in 18 weeks.

With the peak holiday selling season still ahead and a strong lineup of upcoming games that includes Donkey Kong Country™ Returns 3D on May 24, Animal Crossing™: New Leaf on June 9, Mario and Luigi™: Dream Team on Aug. 11, as well as new titles in the Pokémon™, Mario Golf™ and Legend of Zelda™ franchises, Nintendo 3DS is poised to have the strongest year of sales in its history.

Capcom updated the Japanese Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies website today with new screenshots and details. We get a first look at Miles Edgeworth and Trucy in the game, as well as more information about how the story unfolds.

You can find the latest on Dual Destinies below.

Story/general

– Edgeworth is slightly older and wears glasses
– Apollo had been called in to work by the Wright Anything Agency
– Trucy is waiting for him
– The two meet up and reacquaint by talking about Apollo’s thoughts on his long absence from the legal world
– Both then visit a place called Kyubi Village, where a case is waiting to unfold
– Kyubi village is a festive place
– Youkai (Japanese folklore monsters) are immensely popular
– “Youkai Alley” is a part of the village that is livelier than any other area
– The two are looking to go to a mansion in Kyubi village
– Huge village party will be held there
– Trucy’s friend, Yumemi Tenma, invited her
– Yumemi works as a maid at the mansion
– Upon seeing Apollo for the first time, the strange girl mistakes him for a demon
– Once they meet up for the party, their conversation is interrupted by someone in a black youkai suit
– Not long until a hero-like character, who goes by the name of “Great Kyubi,” comes to the rescue, in a strange turn of events
– Murder incident is discovered in the mansion
– Authorities find the body of the village chief and the mayor of Tenma City
– The mayor is Yumemi’s father and is found incapacitated at the scene of the crime
– It’s said that Tenma had a motive to kill the village chief, as he’s been recently trying to merge the village into his city
– He’s considered the prime suspect and promptly arrested
– Yumemi claims to have seen the murderer herself—the legendary “Tenmataro”
– Kyubi legend has it that a long time ago, a youkai named Tenmataro terrorized the village
– After the Kyubi appeared and defeated the yokai, it was sealed away
– This would explain why the religious Kyubi villagers seem to harbour a deep fear of this youkai
– Apollo is around to help solve the case
– Many people will testify in court
– They all seem either strange or suspicious in their own ways, making the case harder on Apollo

Miles Edgeworth

– Miles Edgeworth is back
– Top prosecutor and aims to climb even higher
– Phoenix’s rival
– Shares a different perspective
– Both men pursue the truth in court
– It has yet to be revealed as to what he’s up to in Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies

Trucy Wright

– Trucy returning as well
– Young and energetic magician girl who was adopted by Phoenix eight years ago
– Actively participates at the Wright Anything Agency as an entertainer and also as an investigative partner
– Magic Panties prop lets her pull anything out of nothing as a magic trick

Ban Kouzou

– Over-enthusiastic detective who investigates for cases
– “Justice!” is his motto
– Claims to be a peacekeeper of the people
– Can be a little too hot headed when it comes to justice, and can never leave a troubled person behind
– Lends his powers to the lawyers for the sake of a fair trial
