Japan gets a different Swapnote relating to tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct. President Satoru Iwata sent out the following message to fans (in Japanese obviously):


Kid Icarus: Uprising development is finished, and the game will soon be out around the world. Director Masahiro Sakurai won’t have much time to rest, as he’ll be responsible for the next round of highly anticipated Super Smash Bros. titles.

Sakurai seems to be doing some reflection. On Twitter earlier today, Sakurai said that he’s been looking over the Smash Bros. Dojo website, which was used to communicate news about Super Smash Bros. Brawl to fans. He said, “However, what’s the word… it’s tremendous. How did we make this?”

Indies Zero CEO Masanobu Suzui saw Sakurai’s message and said something similar. Once a game is done and he check outs the design documents, materials, and development schedule for a project, he isn’t sure how the team managed to put everything together and create the title.

Sakurai’s response? “It’s because we always put our full effort into it. And then, if you rely on that pace, it becomes more and more difficult.”

Two Nintendo Direct presentations will be taking place tomorrow morning.

First, Nintendo of Japan will stream a presentation from Satoru Iwata. This will begin at 6 AM EST / 3 AM PST.

Following this, Nintendo of America will post up their own version of Nintendo Direct. Like the first show from last year, Reggie Fils-Aime will take viewers through the latest Nintendo news. The North American presentation is set for 9 AM EST / 6 PM PST.

I wouldn’t expect any megatons, but as usual, we should receive some nice tidbits about upcoming games as well as new footage of Wii/3DS titles.

Thanks to 4Him and Travis P for the tip!

Nintendo launched the Japanese-exclusive Wii no Ma channel in May 2009. The service allowed users to view a variety of video content including cartoons and educational shows.

Much like the cancellation of Minna no Theater Wii late last year, Nintendo will soon be ending the Wii no Ma channel. The company announced today that, starting on April 30, the service will no longer be accessible.

According to Nintendo, 8.11 million users have used the program and 4.49 downloads have been registered.

Even though Zoo Keeper 3D is already out in Japan, I don’t believe we ever saw a trailer for the game. Well, here’s one…
