No Tomodachi Collection for North America
Posted 13 years ago by Brian in DS, News | 0 comments
“Tomodachi Collection is something we’re really interested in bringing to the U.S. The problem is that we only built Japanese language generation into the software, and that’s a very important part of the game. We can’t make it work with English, so we won’t be able to release the game here. Obviously I can’t speak to future plans, but this seems like something we might be able to revisit once more powerful hardware comes along.” – Yoshi Sakamoto
Man, that’s really disappointing. I would have loved to play that! I wonder if there’s any possible way they could bring it, or some sort of different version, to the 3DS.
Iwata mentions the prospect of downloading newspaper and magazine articles on 3DS

This information comes from Nikkei…
“As you carry it [the 3DS] with you while out and about, it will seek out and automatically connect with wireless LAN spots, and download information. We’re thinking about functionality where it will automatically acquire newspaper and magazine articles.” – Satoru Iwata
This sort of application should come as no surprise for those who’ve been keeping up with Nintendo’s expansion of the current DS platform into an information terminal here in Japan. The system can be used at select shopping centers, train stations and fast food chains to download information and mini games, play Wi-Fi Connect-ready DS software, and download game demos.
Hideki Konno was hinting at this functionality in an interview yesterday, though Iwata’s remarks make it seems even more likely that it’ll happen. In a way, if it happens, the 3DS could act like the News Channel on Wii (news articles are automatically downloaded if WiiConnect24 is on).
