Super E.D.F. Earth Defense Force – January 2011
World Heroes – January 2011
Japanese gaming website Inside-Games claims to have some interesting information on the launch of the 3DS and software prices for new titles. The site states that roughly 10 games will be ready for the launch of the 3DS. More games from third-parties will be sprinkled between the rest of February and March. Apparently more information regarding launch titles will be shared tomorrow when Nintendo World 2011 kicks off.
Inside Games is also reporting that although a large number of publishers have not determined final pricing for their games, new releases will cost about ¥1,000 more than typical DS software (¥4,800). However, pricier games could see a rise of ¥2,000 or more. Ultimately 3DS game prices could come close to what consumers have been experiencing with the PSP.
Thanks to Hendrickson for the tip!
You’ll find pre-visuals, concept arts, production illustrations, and more while looking at the images above. The art really does look great and seems to have rubbed off on the game itself, as Donkey Kong Country looks fantastic as well.

This information comes from the latest Iwata Asks with Satoru Iwata, Shigesato Itoi, and Shigeru Miyamoto…
Iwata: To go back a little further, the Nintendo GameCube12 system actually had 3D-compatible circuitry built in.
Itoi: Huh?
Iwata: It had the potential for such functions.
Itoi: Nintendo GameCube did? And all the Nintendo GameCubes systems around the world?
