On Monday, the ESA will be announcing something related to next year’s E3. It’ll be big apparently.
ESA vice president Rich Taylor tweeted yesterday:
“On Monday I’ll be making a big announcement regarding E3 2013, so be sure to follow me for updates and spread the word.”
It’s possible that the ESA will be announcing a venue change for E3. The expo has been taking place at the LA Convention Center for the past few years, but if proposed construction on the $1.2 billion Farmers Field stadium is approved, a relocation may be necessary.
New Super Mario Bros. 2 and Onitore launched in Japan today as a package and download release. Unfortunately, Nintendo encountered a few issues as it fully immersed itself into the digital space.
Both titles went on sale at 9:00, but issues popped up almost immediately. Nintendo’s server information page states services related to the eShop were facing issues leading to downtime between 9:00 and 11:30.
Everything appears to be and running now, at least!
The Japanese release of New Super Mario Bros. 2 comes with reversible cover art. Can any readers out there confirm if this is/isn’t the case with European copies as well?
