Super Smash Bros for 3DS ships over 1 million copies in first week
Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in 3DS, News | 21 Comments
Nintendo announced today that Super Smash Bros. for 3DS is now the 4th game in the 3DS library to ship over a million units in its first week in Japan, after Monster Hunter 4, Pokemon X/Y and Youkai Watch 2. This number includes digital copies and though the wording in the PR report was a little ambiguous as to units sold/shipped, we can assume the number of units sold was quite close to this figure.

Super Smash Bros. for 3DS screenshot + Announcement (09/16/14)
Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in 3DS, News, Screenshots | 2 Comments
Sakurai eases up on the feature talk today and instead opts for a helpful gameplay tip for players:
With the release of the 3DS version in Japan, Sakurai also took some time to clarify how screenshots will be handled going forward:
Announcement: Originally, the pic of the day was only supposed to continue for about two months, but I’ve ended up posting pictures until even today. The 3DS version has already been released in Japan, so I would like to talk about how future posts will be handled.
First, I will not talk about hidden features until the game is released overseas. On the other hand, I definitely will talk about them after the game is released abroad.
In addition, I am planning to continue making posts at least until the Wii U version is released. I haven’t decided if I’ll go by the Japanese version release or the release of versions abroad, but the point is that I’ll continue posting for a little bit longer.
Pic of the day won’t focus on introducing new information anymore in the near future, but I hope to entertain you with interesting and funny photos like I originally intended to. Thanks.
Mario & Luigi: Dream Team screenshot sharing disabled on Miiverse in light of glitch
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Last night, a significant glitch was found within Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. This basically allowed users to share images outside of the game on Miiverse.
In light of the exploit, Nintendo has now gone ahead and disabled all screenshot sharing on the Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Miiverse community. If/when the functionality will return is unknown at present.

Curve Studios planning more 3DS support
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 0 comments
Curve Studios has plans to better support the 3DS in the future.
When asked if releasing more titles on the portable system was under consideration, the company’s Rob Clarke told us:
Yes! This is the plan, anyway. The 3DS is a tricky console. A ton of us at Curve own a 3DS and we love it, but when it comes to developing games it’s a bit trickier. Many of our games started out on PC and are designed for fast systems with tons of resources. We have to go back to the drawing board if we want to make them on the 3DS, and in the past we’ve not always wanted to do that. However, we decided that it’s too good a system to keep missing out on, so even before the new 3DS was announced we had already made the decision to look at bringing out more games for it, so we should have an announcement about that pretty soon.
Curve Studios has only released one game on 3DS thus far – the Nintendo-published Fluidity: Spin Cycle. Thankfully, it sounds like we can count on new games gracing the eShop in the future.
We’ll have more from Curve Studios throughout the coming week.
