Rumor: Nintendo tells Bloomberg 3DS launching this quarter

This information comes from a recent GameSpot news article…

“Nintendo has confirmed to Bloomberg Japan that the 3DS is coming out in the island nation this quarter and that pricing and an exact release date will be revealed on September 29. Nintendo had previously announced that the handheld would be out in America some time in 2011 after confirming at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo it would be out this fiscal year. No dates for other regions have been confirmed.”

Nintendo has confirmed that an event will be taking place on September 29, but I highly doubt that they’d say that the 3DS is going to launch in Japan this quarter. In any case, we’ll see what happens in about two months.
