Japan gets a Nintendo Direct after all! The video above largely covers the same kind of content highlighted by the North American/European presentations. There is the announcement of Bike Rider DX 2, though.

There’s also AR eShop cards for Animal Crossing (out Nov. 21) and Pikmin (Dec. 2). For Pikmin, pricing is set at 1,000 yen (yellow Pikmin), 2,000 yen (Red Pikmin) and 3,000 yen (Blue Pikmin). Consumers can also choose from the same pricing scheme for Animal Crossing, with the cards featuring the Nook brothers, Isabelle, and K.K. Slider.

GT.TV had a taste of Nintendo-related goodness last week by featuring brief new looks at Super Mario 3D World and Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. Next week, the show will have full-blown coverage of the Big N.

We originally expected GT.TV’s “Nintendo and Donkey Kong” episode to air on November 15. Sometime within the past few days, though, the date was moved to November 22. Not too long of a delay, but a delay worth noting nonetheless.

Nintendo World will be selling three of the Big N’s late November releases a tiny bit early. Super Mario 3D World, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, and Mario Party: Island Tour will be available for purchase on November 21. Those who stop by between 8 PM and 12 AM can pick up any of the three titles.
