Did you think that there was a mistake with Splinter Cell 3D’s boxart colring? Well, no… there’s a reason behind it. Similar to Wii games, all 3DS titles in Japan will contain black boxarts when a rating of CERO C or higher is awarded. Although there really isn’t a big difference, it looks quite nice!

Super Street Fighter IV 3D online details coming next week

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments

This information/image comes from Capcom’s Wes Phillips

“More info regarding SSFIV 3D online functionality coming next week. In the meantime, please put this away …”

I’m assuming that we’ll hear more about Super Street Fighter IV 3D’s online functionality as well as the 3DS’ online in general next Wednesday. And the image Phillips posted is quite interesting… is that a response to the uproar over friend codes?
