Note that while this is footage from the Vita version, Urban Trial Freestyle shouldn’t be much different on the 3DS.
A fan-driven Pokemon event was recently held in Chile, and it featured a somewhat out-of-the-blue Nintendo announcement.
The special Pikachu 3DS XL, previously released in Japan and Europe, was also confirmed for the Chile. This news may have implications for North America since Chile uses the same 3DS system as the US.
Does this mean Nintendo of America will be announcing the Pikachu 3DS XL for the states soon? We can only hope!
Update 2: Bumped to the front page. Nintendo of America has confirmed a presentation as well for 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET. You’ll be able to watch it here.
Update: Aaaaand Nintendo’s Japanese Twitter account has confirmed a presentation as well. News regarding the company’s first-party lineup and services will be detailed. The official Japanese page calls this one a “Wii U Direct: Nintendo Games” broadcast.
A new, dedicated Wii U Nintendo Direct is imminent. Satoru Iwata will be hosting a presentation tomorrow to announce new games for the platform. Maybe we’ll hear about something from Capcom?
Thus far, the Nintendo Direct has only been confirmed for Europe. The broadcast will take place at 2 PM GMT tomorrow.
Nintendo of America/Japan may follow up with announcements of their own. If and/or when that happens, we’ll be sure to update this post.
We’ll just call this game Resident Evil: Revelations… it’ll easier to distinguish it from the 3DS version.
