Wondering why the 3DS lacks a second analog nub? Shigeru Miyamoto finally answered that very question during a recent press event in Paris. Miyamoto explained that Nintendo considered adding a second circle pad, though ultimately decided against it because they felt that it’s common to use your finger to play. In terms of camera control, Miyamoto believes that the system’s built-in gyoscope should be more effective than an additional circle pad.

The popular DSi application, Flipnote Studio, will soon be heading to the 3DS. Shigeru Miyamoto revealed that development is already underway on the 3DS version. Like the original program, Flipnote Studio will act as an animation tool and will be free of charge. Nintendo is hoping to include functionality so that users can exchange flipnotes with friends, though there is some concern that children may end up viewing inappropriate animations.
