Flipnote Studio 3D is out now in Japan. How big is the download? Pretty darn small!

Flipnote Studio 3D comes in at just 42 blocks. Expect a similarly small download when it launches in North America and Europe in a few weeks.

If you’re interested in 007 Legends, now would be the time to pick it up. Amazon has the game for 4.99 for the next hour as a lightning deal. Once time runs out (or product runs out), the deal will be dead.

Exstetra will be missing its original October 17 release. The game is now due out on November 7 – a few weeks delay, basically.

Developer FuRyu cited “various circumstances” as reasons for Exstetra’s delay.
