This information comes from Nintendo Power…

3DS

– Results will play out pretty much identically in the Wii/3DS versions
– Games will have the same content
– 3DS version will look very similar to the Wii game
– Each time period will have its own screen during story sequences
– Beenox says the 3D effect won’t be overblown
– 3D will be used to enhance certain moments, like heightening the thrill of 2099’s free-fall sequences

DS

– Developed by Other Ocean (Dark Void Zero)
– Side-scrolling action
– Own art style and feel
– Swap between the present and 2099 at any time to control those periods’ heroes
– Spider-Man of 2099 might encounter a locked security door, destroy it more easily in the past
– Different locations than the 3DS/Wii versions
– Daily Bugle offices in present-day NYC and a Cyber Gaming Arena in the year 2099 are some locations
– At least two bosses not in the other versions: Rhino and Shocker

Super Mario Land director Yoshiaki Koizumi has expressed some interest in seeing older Nintendo games in 3D. When asked if there are any titles he’d like to remake, he said:

“I guess I can’t really say one title specifically because then the world will expect us to make it and I’ll get into a whole lot of trouble!

“I can say that I really would like to see a lot of those games that use 3D worlds on 2D display just so I could see what they look like in 3D and see what kind of different experiences people would have playing through them on a 3D display. So in that sense I would love to see Sunshine and both Galaxy games presented in 3D, and a lot of the Zelda [games] would be interesting too.”

Koizumi has already seen one of his wishes fulfilled: Zelda: Ocarina of Time is already out on the 3DS, and I’m sure we’ll see more from the franchise on the system in the future. I doubt Nintendo would port the Galaxy games over, though perhaps Sunshine is a possibility.

Nintendo DS: Best selling platform.
Xbox 360: 277K (-37.5%)
Wii: 190K (-25%)
PS3: 148k (-31%)

Regarding the 3DS, we can determine that the system sold no more than 114,000 units in the United States last month. The exact NPD figure isn’t available, so it’s possible that the actual sales number is significantly lower than 114K.

And while is unclear how well the DS sold, it’s been confirmed that it was the best-selling system last month – that’s according to Nintendo’s press release.

You won’t find any Wii or 3DS sales here. But yes, this is actually Nintendo’s response for the July 2011 NPD data, it seems…

Just Dance 2 Becomes Eighth Wii Title to Sell More Than 5 Million Units

Just Dance® 2 from Ubisoft®, which plays exclusively on Nintendo’s Wii™ console, has sold more than 5 million units, according to the independent NPD Group, which tracks video game sales in the United States. With this milestone, the Wii system now has eight 5-million sellers* in the U.S., twice as many as competing current-generation consoles combined.

In the month of July, seven of the top 10 and 15 of the top 25 best-selling software SKUs play on Nintendo platforms. Just Dance 2 sold more than 120,000 units to finish No. 3 for the month.
