As you can see, My Garden is apparently going to be released in Spring 2011. EA stated in a press release earlier today that the project will be a launch title for the 3DS, so unless the listing above is inaccurate, that would indicate that the the handheld won’t hit store shelves until 2011 in North America and Europe. Still, an official confirmation from Nintendo would be nice!

“I cannot deny the existence of such a project in the past but cannot say if it will be what I move onto next or not. I’m sorry but we would like to keep that game a mystery. After all, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding Dread. And my hope, if at all possible, is to reset the situation at once and start from scratch.”
