A new visitor will be awaiting 3DS owners in the StreetPass Mii Plaza. Nintendo sent out the official Mii for Satoru Iwata, who is wearing a Luigi hat and gold pants.
When visiting the StreetPass Mii Plaza, Iwata will tell you about the Nintendo Direct happening on Tuesday. His most recent software is Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon.
Iwata’s Mii also comes with a SpotPass message. It states:
Lady Hunk and Rachel Ooze are coming to Resident Evil: Revelations HD on June 11 as DLC. Both will be playable in Raid Mode.
Nintendo has opened a special Miiverse community for E3 2013. For a limited time, fans can partake in the official “Nintendo@E3 2013 Community”.
You can access the main section on your PC/mobile device here. There’s also a “Backstage” section, located here, which is for more official announcements and such.

Would you look at that… yet another sports title will be skipping Wii U.
2K Sports confirmed to GameSpot that NBA 2K14 will not be available on the platform. Senior vice president of sports operations Jason Argent explained that the company “didn’t want to take resources” from the other versions.
Argent said:
“We are not doing a Wii U version this year. The decision was made internally that resources would be best put toward building a really, really amazing current-generation and next-generation game and we didn’t want to take resources away from creating amazing experiences on…all those platforms.”
Are any major sports titles heading to Wii U this year? There’s no Madden, FIFA, UFC, NHL, or PES titles planned.
There hasn’t been a whole lot of Harvest Moon news since A New Beginning. That title came out in Japan back in February of last year.
It doesn’t sound like Marvelous AQL has forgotten about the series, at least. When Harvest Moon was mentioned by Siliconera, chief creative officer Yoshifumi Hashimoto teased: “The series is getting very interesting…”
What could that mean?
Here’s what Nintendo’s E3 2013 schedule looks like for Tuesday…
