This information comes from Satoru Iwata…

“I now regret that we didn’t tie up with someone outside the company to market the Wii. If we had done that, the fate of the Wii might have been different. Now I am aware that we should not rely too much on ourselves. You will see what I mean by this when we market the 3DS and the Wii in the future.”

Iwata’s statements are somewhat vague… so that makes things a bit confusing! Some people believe that he was referring to working with third-parties to produce content for the Wii, though that isn’t entirely clear.

This information comes from XSEED’s Facebook account…

“The 3DS is a slick piece of hardware, we are definitely looking into some 3DS games that some quality developers are working on.”

XSEED gave the DS a fair amount of love. They also took some rather significant risks with games such as Retro Game Challenge. I’d love for them to continue that tradition with the 3DS by bringing over some of the more quirky titles from Japan.

This information comes from Nintendo’s Financial Results Briefing…

“However, for the system update, we need to have consumers voluntarily go online with their Nintendo 3DS. We are planning to do some promotional activities in order to urge them to do so. More specifically, we will give a free download of ‘ExciteBike’ as one of the ‘3D Classics’ series during a certain period of time after the beginning of the system update. We would like to announce this widely and have as many people as possible update their hardware and start using Nintendo eShop. Concerning the Virtual Console software, we will begin with GameBoy and GameBoy Color software, and continue with this until we gradually realize the Virtual Console software for the other platforms.”

It isn’t clear if the Excitebike download is Japan-specific or if North America and Europe will also offer the game for free. I have a feeling that this will be a global promotion, but for now we’ll have to wait for a confirmation from Nintendo’s other departments.
