You know, you have to hand it to Nintendo of Europe. Not only are they localizing titles that gamers care about, but now they’re even beating America to the punch by launching the 3DS’ video service tomorrow.

As far as North America goes, there’s no word on when the application will go live. A representative would only say that it will be available “later this summer.” Another feature, Netflix, will also be released “soon”.

“Nintendo’s short-form video service that delivers special video content for Nintendo 3DS systems will launch in North America later this summer. In addition, Netflix members who have an unlimited plan starting at $7.99 a month and access to a broadband wireless Internet connection will soon be able to download a free Netflix application that allows them to watch movies and TV shows on their Nintendo 3DS systems at no extra charge. These services will add to the wealth of games and entertainment content currently available via the Nintendo eShop. For more information about Nintendo 3DS, visit http://www.nintendo.com/3ds.”

Believe it or not, the details below actually from a Japanese PlayStation magazine – specifically, Dengeki PlayStation. The magazine sometimes has reports on high profile games, such Theatrhythm Final Fantasy.

– Three modes of play: Music Game, SpotPass, Museum
– Three submodes for Music Game: Series, Challenge, another mystery mode
– Options are shown with your current party, listed with HP and level
– Swap out characters from your party
– Icons move across the screen
– Three icons: Red, yellow, green
– Red: Touch the screen briefly
– Yellow: Slide in the direction of the arrow or line of movement of the icon
– Green: Touch and hold down on the screen
– Field: Play to field, town and dungeon music. There’s just one rhythm line here. The difficulty is lower, and there are some more relaxed songs that require you to slide the touch pen up and down.
– Battle: There are four rhythm lines here. The music is higher tempo and the difficulty higher. It appears that you’ll be able to get critical attacks by timing your inputs perfectly.

This service is launching in both Europe and Japan tomorrow, yet we haven’t heard a thing about a launch date for North America. Nintendo Video is still planned for the region – I just have no idea when it’ll be released here!

11th July 2011 – Nintendo 3DS owners will be able to download the new Nintendo Video application from Nintendo eShop from the 13th of July 2011 providing access to a range of new and exclusive 2D and 3D video content on their Nintendo 3DS system.

The Nintendo Video application allows you to view specially selected 2D and 3D video content, including comedy clips, cartoons and music videos to name a few, and all automatically received via SpotPass when a wireless Internet connection is available. SpotPass revolutionises the way you receive content while on the move. Nintendo has partnered with a range of Wi-Fi providers which will enable you to automatically receive free 3D content from supported public Wi-Fi access points – even when your Nintendo 3DS system is in Sleep Mode.

Initial Nintendo Video content which will be available through SpotPass will include selected episodes of Oscar’s Oasis – the charming cartoon TV series produced by TeamTO & TUBA, which has been broadcast across Europe, will become available to view for the first time in full 3D on your Nintendo 3DS system.

3D specialist D4D has also produced an array of exclusive 3D episodes of Magic Tricks for your Nintendo 3DS. Be entertained and stunned viewing classic card tricks and optical illusions in 3D, in the palm of your hand.

The 2D and 3D content will not stop there; in the near future Nintendo Video will be bringing you a host of additional content, including movie trailers, classical music concerts, children’s animations plus much more content, all in full 3D.

For more information on Nintendo 3DS and SpotPass, visit the official Nintendo 3DS website at www.nintendo3ds.co.uk. For information on performing a system update, visit the Support section at support.nintendo.com

Clash on the Big Bridge (Final Fantasy V)
One Winged Angel (Final Fantasy VII)
At Zanarkand (Final Fantasy X)
The Sunleth Waterscape (Final Fantasy XIII)
The Final Fantasy main theme

I really enjoyed the soundtrack sample on the game’s website. You can find it here in case you happened to miss it last night. If the rest of the music is similarly enjoyable, perhaps more fans will welcome the overall premise of this game.
