“It’s a surprise – we were expecting it much closer to Christmas. But I suppose it gives Nintendo the opportunity to get it front and centre in people’s minds nice and early. In my experience, you don’t launch a product that early to Christmas unless you’re confident in it – and going to spend a lot of money on it. We’re reassured that Nintendo is going to give it some decent backing in Q4.” – a senior publishing source
It would make sense for Nintendo to release the 3DS in time for the holiday season. And when Nintendo first announced the system, we heard that it will launch before March 2011. I’d like to hear an official confirmation before I fully believe anything, though!

– Magic Circle will stay even after your magic hits your opponent
– Director says Magic Circles are important
– Director: “Combat in The Last Story is powered by a system that blends action with command selection.”
– Producer “Before making characters and stages, you have to create the battle structure.”
