This should completely confirm that Super Mario 3D Land is the final name for this game. Nintendo has also updated the E3 2011 trailer with the new image, which you can find here.
Have an opinion about the logo? Feel free to make a comment!

The images above come from Hideo Kojima’s Twitter account. He’s been showing the camoflauge system in action, which uses the 3DS’ cameras. This feature was announced during E3 a few months ago.

Nintendo pleased with 3DS form factor, Reggie won’t talk 3DS Lite
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The DS Lite was made available on the market roughly a year and a half after the original system launched. With the 3DS seeing release less than six months ago, one would think that it’s much too early to be thinking about a 3DS Lite. Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Aime seems to think so as well.
Fils-Aime said in a recent interview:
“The form factor, we believe, it quite strong and quite positive. We have nothing else to add at this point in terms of other form factor changes or other color changes beyond the Flame Red that we’re announcing today.”
I can’t say I have too many complaints about the 3DS’ design at the moment. The only issue I have is the system’s battery life. I’d most likely consider purchasing a third-party peripheral over buying a 3DS Lite, though.
July 2011 NPD hardware sales
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
Nintendo DS: Best selling platform.
Xbox 360: 277K (-37.5%)
Wii: 190K (-25%)
PS3: 148k (-31%)
Regarding the 3DS, we can determine that the system sold no more than 114,000 units in the United States last month. The exact NPD figure isn’t available, so it’s possible that the actual sales number is significantly lower than 114K.
And while is unclear how well the DS sold, it’s been confirmed that it was the best-selling system last month – that’s according to Nintendo’s press release.
