The long-awaited update for 3DS is now available for download!
This update brings the eShop and web browser (which can, indeed, display 3D images from select sites) to your 3DS home screen.
Available eShop titles include:
Pokedex 3D (free)
Excitebike 3D (free)
Super Mario Land (3.99)
Alleyway (2.99)
Radar Mission (2.99)
Plus a boat-load of DSiWare!
The eShop interface is colorful and entertaining, delivering your new games in a virtual gift-wrapped box.
A word of caution: With a rush of 3DS owners trying to access the shop at once, you might encounter some opening-day bumpiness: It took me five tries to get in, but it was worth it.
More on the eShop soon! By the way, Pokedex 3D is pretty spectacular.
Yeah the browser is pretty fast on the 3DS. A lot smoother the on the dsi. I am on it right now, it is using Mozilla instead of Opera. Also the interface is really nice and more put together.
@WMDunkin ~ it doesn't run on Firefox, it runs on an optimized version of Netfront.
browser is pretty quick! too bad only creditcard payments…

Are you guys going tobe posting 3D content? Or are you guys unable too?
@SuperEnigmation will the site i went to to find out said firefox…..
No flash support by the browser is a bit sucky.
And even though there was no word on it coming with the update, the 3DS is still sorely lacking an online pictochat like chat function. Maybe in the next one???
Heeeeeeeer yea!
It was live around 9 something, I though it was suppose to be evening, I guess Nintendo thing 9 PM is evening. 😉

Be glad you live in Pacific Standard Time! 🙂
Sounds cool, but Nintendo really needs to lower their prices if they want to remain competitive. You can download a similar experience to Super Mario Land for a dollar on iOS.
Hahahaha
Yeah those Mario clones are must as good as the originals.
Caleb–
True. But they're *not Mario*. And they have sucky controls. 🙂 I agree though; the prices seem just a bit high for GB games. Gotta love the price of Pokedex and Excitebike, though!
Can you choose between upscaling or using the original resolution in DSiWare like you can with DS games?
Funny thing. I'm an American living in Germany…and I'm forced to use the German version of the eShop, which…is only available in German XD fun times…
i wish i could put my nintendo points on instead of having to buy new 3ds points 🙁
