3DS

A few months ago, we learned that the 3DS’ Activity Log feature could act as a pedometer. The amount of steps you take will be tracked by the system and recorded each day. It looks like there’s another element to the feature, however.

Apparently a system will be in place called “Game Coins.” As one would expect, the coins count will increase as players carry the system around. Additional content can be unlocked in certain titles using the coins. It’s an interesting idea, to say the least!

This information comes from the Nihon Keizai Shimbun newspaper…

“It’s important that you be able to supply software with no pause. With the DS and Wii, following the titles that were released at launch, the momentum dropped when there was a gap in software releases. We’re making plans so that this type of thing won’t happen.” – Satoru Iwata

– Iwata believes he hasn’t said anything special about 3D warnings for the 3DS
– Similar warnings are on 3D TV instruction manuals
– Nintendo thinks kids could end up playing video game for lengthy periods
– As a result, Nintendo wants to adequately convey the message before people make their purchase
– Iwata believes developing countries will become important in the future as their economies grow
– Iwata not sure when Nintendo can satisfy the demand for 3DS in North America, Japan, and Europe, so he can’t say when the 3DS could be made available in other territories
– Over 2 million units sold in the holiday season (North America)
– Wii crossed the 7 million mark in early sales
– DS sales similar to 2009
– Wii/DS hit expectations in Europe
