Capcom published Mega Man X3 on the European New 3DS Virtual Console a few months ago. Tomorrow, North America will be joining in on the fun as well. Nintendo’s website confirms a release date of November 10.

Here’s what you need to know about the game:

“After discovering a virus that is turning intelligent and peaceful robots known as Reploids into rogue Mavericks, the scientist Dr. Doppler successfully creates an antivirus to the phenomenon. The reformed Reploids then move into Dopple Town, a place where humans and Reploids can live together in harmony. But when an outbreak occurs causing the Reploids to turn back into Mavericks, Maverick Hunters Mega Man X and Zero are sent to contain the situation.

Choose either Mega Man X or Zero as you run, jump, dash, scale walls, avoid obstacles, and fight enemies in eight challenging stages. At the end of each stage, defeat the boss to gain a special weapon that will aid you in the upcoming battles. Will you be the cure for this latest outbreak?”

Pricing for Mega Man X3 is set at $7.99.

This past weekend, we added some comments to the site about Capcom’s approach to Switch. The responses have now been official translated and posted on the company’s investor relations website. We have the full remarks rather than summaries.

First, when asked about Capcom’s stance regarding developing for Switch, the publisher said:

“It is excellent to have the market invigorated with new hardware launches. As a software publisher, we endeavor to develop games that offer enjoyment best suited to each piece of hardware’s features and target users. Following first party, in order to introduce our own content we are currently moving forward with internal planning and analysis as a partner company.”

Next, here’s what Capcom said about developing multiplatform titles on Switch:

“We are currently carrying out research with regards to multiplatform implementation of software for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on to the Nintendo Switch and thus are unable to comment at this moment. However, we do feel that there are differences in the desired direction and the play-style of the Nintendo Switch and those of the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. At Capcom, we determine which platform to release a title for after considering the features of both our software and the hardware in question, believing we must bring the enjoyment of our games to their maximum potential.”

Capcom is already confirmed as a partner for Switch, as was announced a couple of weeks ago. As part of its latest financial results briefing Q&A, president and CEO Kenzo Tsujimoto talked a bit more about the platform.

Tsujimoto noted that it’s pleasing to see a new the appearance of a new platform. Capcom hopes to make games that can offer an experience tailored to the characteristics of each hardware and to the enjoyment of each target audience. Currently, the company is engaged in internal review and planning about offering content for the console as a partner.

Tsujimoto also explained that Capcom is looking into the feasibility of multiplatform development for PS4, Xbox One and Switch. However, it’s too early to be sure, and the feeling is that the Switch offers a different experience compared to those other platforms. As DualShockers notes, “hardware for each game will be selected taking in consideration the characteristics of each hardware, in order to maximize the fun provided to the player.”

Capcom is looking to find ways to expand Monster Hunter’s sales in territories outside of Japan. Chairman Kenzo Tsujimoto stated that while the series has been finding success on handhelds in Japan, they do not sell as well in the US, citing handheld gaming being only 10% of gaming. Tsujimoto also noted that other platforms, such as the Switch, Playstation 4, and Xbox One are being taken into consideration.
