I have a feeling we’ll eventually come across higher-quality scans of Capcom’s Resident Evil 3DS titles. We’ll add them to the site if we happen to come across any additional images.

Overall, third-parties (as well as Nintendo) have been quiet about their upcoming 3DS titles. We’ve seen the occasional game featured in Famitsu as well as a few overseas announcements here and there, but that’s been all, for the most part. To make matters worse, North American and European consumers are still waiting to find out when the handheld will be launching in their respective territory. It seems like fans will have to wait about another month and a half or so before concrete information pertaining to the system arrives. That’s according to new Executive Editor of IGN’s Nintendo channels, Rich George, who also claims to have heard that Nintendo is asking publishers to keep mostly quiet about the portable for now:

“I think you guys ought to expect a flood of information… late January 2011? I’m hearing Nintendo is keeping all developers/publishers at bay so… once there’s a green light… brace yourself.”

George followed up his remarks about the 3DS on his blog with the following comment:

“I know of a rumored date they will talk, but no definite confirmation. When I have it, so will you!”

Late January does seem rather late, so hopefully we’ll receive some information before then. You can be sure we’ll post anything relating to the 3DS as soon as we hear anything!

Right after Nintendo’s press conference, Ubisoft sent out a press release indicating that they would have a number of titles ready for the launch of the 3DS. One of the titles listed included Ghost Recon. In a recent Eurogamer article, it was reconfirmed that the company will be releasing the game when the 3DS launches next year. However, it seems as though the project has a new name – the “Lead the Ghosts” subtitle has been replaced with “Shadow Wars.”

This information comes from Grasshopper Manufacture’s Facebook page…

“No, no information on a sequel to Contact now. We’re not working on any games for Nintendo’s older portable systems. ;-)… 3DS? What’s that? ;p”

Obviously, nothing was said explicitly. But it does seem as though they’re hinting at 3DS development! It wouldn’t be too surprising, as Suda51, the company’s CEO, has expressed interest in the platform.

This information comes from Hiroyuki Takahashi, producer for Golden Sun: Dark Dawn…

“I’m afraid I can’t go into detail at this time, but the features of Nintendo 3DS are really exciting to me as a developer. I’m really excited to challenge myself and create something for it.”

Well, Camelot might as well bring the series to the 3DS! We’ve seen a couple of titles on the GBA, and one title on DS. The next logical step is to move on to Nintendo’s next handheld.
