The real Metal Gear Solid 3DS game won’t be like the demo

This information comes from director Hideo Kojima and other members of Konami, who were answering fan questions…
“We’re going to see what people think and feel. What [Kojima] is going to do, is decide the right direction. This was more of a 3D depth presentation. The real game won’t be like that. Your eyes get tired.”
Konami officially announced that a Metal Gear 3DS game would be coming to the system as “Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3D The Naked Sample.” I know people were extremely impressed with the demo at E3, so hopefully Kojima will keep that in mind when deciding what to do with his project.

Iwata mentions the prospect of downloading newspaper and magazine articles on 3DS

This information comes from Nikkei…
“As you carry it [the 3DS] with you while out and about, it will seek out and automatically connect with wireless LAN spots, and download information. We’re thinking about functionality where it will automatically acquire newspaper and magazine articles.” – Satoru Iwata
This sort of application should come as no surprise for those who’ve been keeping up with Nintendo’s expansion of the current DS platform into an information terminal here in Japan. The system can be used at select shopping centers, train stations and fast food chains to download information and mini games, play Wi-Fi Connect-ready DS software, and download game demos.
Hideki Konno was hinting at this functionality in an interview yesterday, though Iwata’s remarks make it seems even more likely that it’ll happen. In a way, if it happens, the 3DS could act like the News Channel on Wii (news articles are automatically downloaded if WiiConnect24 is on).

Miyamoto: Vitality Sensor progressing well, doesn’t know about 3DS software installation, Pikmin 3 is a Wii game, more

Had enough of Miyamoto yet? I hope not! IGN has conducted a massive interview with him, which you can check out below.
Miyamoto on the Vitality Sensor’s absence…
“It’s actually progressing quite well. We could have shown it here at E3 if we wanted to, but the environment here isn’t really suited to that game. E3 is pretty exciting, and that’s a device that’s all about relaxation. So it’s just wasn’t the best time or place to show that game. But it is ready, so we’ll probably find another place that’s more suitable to announce it. But I’m not directly involved in that project.”

Yes, there will be a Mario 3DS game
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 7 Comments
Nintendo revealed earlier this week that a ton of games based on classic franchises are in the works for the 3DS. One title that was conspicuously missing, however, was the announcement of an original Mario platforming adventure. Fortunately, Shigeru Miyamoto assured fans in a recent interview that there are plans to bring a main Mario title to the 3DS other than Paper Mario.
“We could’ve very easily done just a quick Mario-based tech demo that would show something like that, but one of the things that I’m always concerned about is showing a Mario gameto people before it’s ready to be shown. So that’s why we held back this time. But now that Super Mario Galaxy 2 is done, we’ll be able to go hard at work on a new Mario game for Nintendo 3DS. So you can expect to see a Mario game at some point, but you’ll just have to wait a little bit longer.”
The only question is, what type of game will it be? Another New Super Mario Bros.? Or something similar to Super Mario 64 DS?
