Last week, a rating for Rayman 3D was discovered on the OFLC website. Although it wasn’t entirely clear which platform the game was in development for, the 3DS seemed like a logical guess. Today the ESRB has confirmed that the title is indeed in the works for Nintendo’s upcoming handheld.

Unfortunately, unlike most listings on the ESRB website, a description was not provided with the rating. But considering the game has been rated in two territories, Rayman 3D will most likely turn out to be a game released sooner rather than later.

By the time January 19 rolls by, there may very well be a race of sorts between Nintendo’s North American and European divisions. Who will be the first to divulge some long awaited information about the 3DS? We’re still waiting to hear when the North American conference will kick off, but we now know that the Amsterdam event will begin at 15:00. Members of the press will be able to have hands on time with the 3DS shortly thereafter. We’re only about twenty days away now… Hold on, guys!

Thanks to Jérémy for the tip!

Right from the very beginning, Nintendo has been upfront about potential health concerns relating to the 3DS – particularly for children looking at the 3D graphics. Reggie Fils-Aime stated a few months back that Nintendo “will recommend that very young children not look at 3D images.” Now we’re starting to hear about warnings for those playing the handlheld once again. Nintendo shared the following information today:

– Quicker eye fatigue as a result of viewing 3D
– Some 3D software can cause eyes to become tired quicker than other software
– Nintendo recommends players take a break after 30 minutes of play
– “If your physical condition worsens or you become ill, please stop playing at once”
– 3D has different effects on different people
– 3D slider allows a wider group of people to enjoy the system
– 3D not recommended for children under the age of six as the vision of young children is still in developmental stages (like 3D movies and television)
– “Since the Nintendo 3DS can be changed to 2D to avoid any effects on young children’s vision, it is possible for anyone to enjoy playing it”
– Once again, there will be parental controls for 3D

Nintendo has yet to announce when the 3DS will be launching in North America and how much the system will cost. However, that isn’t stopping most GameStop stores from accepting pre-orders. A handful of consumers have confirmed that they have been able to pre-order the handheld starting today. If this is something you’re interested in, make sure to bring $50 to your local GameStop and mention SKU number 020132 if anyone has absolutely no idea what you’re talking about!
