Anyone else excited for Mario Kart 3DS?
No release date yet. But listen to what the game’s Wikidpedia profile has to say: Shigeru Miyamoto stated that the new sense of depth makes it clear where all the objects are. Gamespot, IGN and Computer and Video Games have commented on the game’s good use of 3D in the game, stating that it helps with judging distance, “heightening that sense of falling”, and giving more de...

News round-up: Donkey Kong Country Returns nets Nintendo lots of bananas
In case you missed it — some interesting stories from Nintendo that made the headlines this week. Also, whatever you do, don’t look directly at the Kirbémons over there. Their Cuteness Overload is super effective! – Donkey Kong Country Returns sold over 4.21 million copies, joining the ranks of the top 9 best-selling Wii games of all time (a list that Super Mario All-Stars Limit...
How much would you pay for classic Game Boy titles on 3DS Virtual Console?
If NES games were around $5 on Wii’s Virtual Console, I’m going to take a guess that original black & white Game Boy titles will clock in at $3. To be honest, you probably would have a lot more sales if you just went with $1 each, though I doubt Nintendo would ever go that low. How much would be willing to pay for classic Game Boy titles on the 3DS Virtual Console?
Which 3DS “launch window” games are you most excited to play?
Nintendo has promised more than 30 new 3DS games between Mar 27 and early June. Currently, Nintendo has 20 listed on their website. It’s unclear what the other 10+ may or may not be. That said, of the 20 listed, which are you most excited to play? Having got my hands on many of the games listed, I’m going with Steeldiver, Zelda Ocarina, and Pilotwings in that order. You?
Nintendo finally thwarts pirates with release of 3DS
Nintendo has finally thwarted pirates who wish to take advantage of the upcoming 3DS. Pirate spokesman One-Eyed Jack was quoted as saying, “Tis rather thoughtless, if’n you ask me. How’s I supposed to enjoy rich 3D visuals when I’s only gots but one eye?” Seriously, though, my old man has no depth perception. Anyone out there unable to take advantage of this highly ...

Miyamoto’s 3DS Super Mario Bros. title will be out “ASAP”
Has infamously pro-3D Shigeru Miyamoto (as in Mario 64, not silly glasses) finally come around on the resurgent 2D platformer? Perhaps he has, if recent Iwata Asks interview answers are any indication. “In the interests of adopting new technology for the Super Mario Bros. tradition, I am now making a new Super Mario Bros. game for the Nintendo 3DS,” he said, adding that he wants the game to be re...
Five reasons I still love Nintendogs…and can’t wait for the 3DS sequel
I’m not ashamed to admit I bought my DS to play Nintendogs. When a friend showed me his polygon-pup spinning to the spoken command, “Hurricane Kick,” I realized that, yes, I did want a virtual canine after all. In fact, I bought the Lab and Friends cartridge a week before I got the system, because (remember this?) the pet-sim was selling out everywhere in its first weeks. I final...
