New hiring at Nintendo of America
Remember Cammie Dunaway, former executive vice president of sales & marketing for Nintendo of America? Well she no longer works for Nintendo, she left October 1st of last year. Who is going to take her place?
If you haven’t already put music on your 3DS…
Do so now! Seriously, it’s a lot of fun. My favorite feature of Nintendo 3DS Sound is the ability to switch among several unique visualizations. (Helpful hint: some of these visualizations can be played.) There is also a control panel that allows you to manipulate the music by altering speed and pitch. Don’t expect the 3DS to replace your iPod, but this is definitely worth checking out...

Nintendo sends a surprise guest to some 3DS owners
North American owners of Nintendogs + cats got a Spotpass notice on their devices yesterday, telling them that the 26th President of the United States had dropped by for a visit, bringing along his bull terrier, Pete. The notification included a bit of historical background about the dog’s infamous reputation (he was accused of ripping the pants off a french ambassador.) Now, this is fun. If...
3DS StreetPass is not region-locked, but the power supply is
On a recent trip to Germany, I was super-excited to pull out my 3DS and notice that I had made new friends during my trip. Nintendogs+Cats was even blinking, indicating a new pet owner and his canine pal would be ready for my dog Fleischwurst to play with. Low and behold, I had StreetPass’d with two German fellas; shortly after they would battle a couple of ghosts for me in Save Mii. I love ...
This is why you won’t be buying Nintendo’s next console
So the entire Internet has been buzzing about Nintendo and their new console, but for some reason it’s hard to be excited about it. Right now with Wii, I haven’t had anything to play since Donkey Kong, and the rest of 2011 is looking bleak. I don’t think I will be stopping in for coffee at Nintendo’s next café, and here’s why.
Hey, Infendo! Tell us your deepest, darkest Nintendo secrets

Why does Nintendo limit how much of certain games that you can enjoy each day?
One of the things that really nags at me about the 3DS is how I have to keep going back to the included games after either a period of time, after earning some more coins, or whatever, to be able to fully enjoy them. I’m specifically thinking about the limit on how many coins I can earn in one day for walking. I took a fairly short walk to the mall, around the stores, and home. I already max...
Prediction – 3DS system update to include Ocarina of Time trailer
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bq5-hvU2J1g[/youtube] Hey, listen! When the 3DS system update that is expected to include the eShop and DSi system transfers comes out this month, I bet they replace the fun Ok Go video with a 3D version of the recent Zelda: Ocarina of Time trailer. What do y’all think?
Even Nintendo admits there are no games available for 3DS
