Kimishima on the New 2DS XL, flexible lifecycles for hardware
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, General Nintendo, News | 8 Comments
This information comes from Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima, as stated during the company’s financial results briefing Q&A…
With regards to our Nintendo 3DS business, our software sales figures in the last fiscal year were boosted significantly by titles, such as Pokémon titles, which helped increase hardware sales, and led to an overall year over year growth in sales of both hardware and software. And as discussed during our presentation, high demand for Nintendo 2DS is driven by an attractive price point on top of its hardware appeal. This is what gives Nintendo 2DS the largest growth rate out of the entirety of our Nintendo 3DS business.
We are planning to launch New Nintendo 2DS XL during this fiscal year. New Nintendo 2DS XL has screens that are the same large size as the New Nintendo 3DS XL, and can play more than 1000 Nintendo 3DS titles already released, at a very desirable price point. Our expectation is that if we are able to continue to provide enjoyable software, we will always meet the needs of consumers who want to continue playing on the existing Nintendo 3DS series. To that end, we are always thinking about what kinds of software consumers are going to want, and evaluating our hardware cycles to
make sure that we are meeting that need.

Dragon Quest XI: “Zone” and “Co-op skills” features revealed
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News, Switch | 0 comments
It feels like we’re getting a new feature reveal for Dragon Quest XI pretty much every week, and this week is no exception. This week’s Jump magazine has revealed the new “Zone” feature, which, among other things, allows the use of powerful co-op skills (thanks Siliconera for the translation).
We’ve actually seen the “Zone” feature briefly before in some screenshots. When the protagonist glows with a blue aura during battle, that’s the sign on him activating Zone. Not only do his stats temporarily increase, it also allows you to use powerful co-op skills – techniques in which the hero and one or more party members combine their powers to unleash a powerful attack. Jump magazine list three examples of co-op skills:
- Falcon Dance: the hero and Camus dance around an enemy, repeatedly attacking it with swift sword strikes
- Rose Hurricane: the hero, Sylvia and Row combine their magic powers and Sylvia’s love to unleash a powerful whirlwind
- Giga Burst: all party members team up and gather their powers in the hero’s sword, who delivers a devastating strike
However, players aren’t the only ones who can use this power – some enemies are also able to use “Zone” and co-op skills.
