This: www.nintendo.co.jp/n10/conference2011/titlelist/index.htmlNew Mario Tennis, new Fire Emblem (don't even THINK about that leaving Japan though... NOA hates that kind of games, you know), and JP release dates of SM3DL (3 Nov) and Mario Kart (1 Dec), and more. This also makes me regret getting the NA 3DS even more, with those downloadable trailers. |

Not to mention, Kid Icarus gets three animated shorts from SHAFT (Howy sheet, the makers of many absurd anime's these days), Production I.G. and Studio 4°C. (-0_0-);
Geez, Sakurai really must be making sure this game's gonna rock our socks- also Pit gets an animated debut!! Why a revived series does need even an animated shorts to be boost its sales? (-@m@-)
Als Bowser and Bullet Bills get to wear Tanooki Tails too. Miyamoto's costume fetish disease is spreading all through the Mushroom Kingdom!!!
EDIT: The Tanooki Leaf from SML3D has been confirmed as an item Mario Kart 7- I saw it by my own eyes. (-0_l-)
AND FINALLY FIRE FLOWER IS AN ITEM!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if the Fire Flower item worked like the Fireball item from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. Interestingly, this game marks Lakitu's debut as a playable character! Also, It seems that there is an item that turns characters metal like in Super Mario 64. But when I checked Mario Wiki, they say that Metal Mario is a playable character. Either Metal Mario is a separate character from Mario or Metal Mario is really Mario after he picked up the metal item.  Regarding Fire Emblem, it looks interesting. Right now over at Smashboards, people are already speculating that the main character (Chrome?) will possibly replace Ike in SSB4.  |

Metal Mario is actually a real character, it's confirmed in the interview.
And boy I spazzed hearing Lakitu will be playable.

But isn't that redundant? What happens when Metal Mario picks up the metal item? Nothing happens? |

I WANT FIRE EMBLEM
If it was localized, it would do a lot to make me pick up a 3DS.
Nintendo netting Monster Hunter 4 is HUGE, too, although not so much outside of Japan.

It's amazing how these things cascade, however. If Nintendo bags a big license like MH4 in Japan, sales shoot up in Japan, development increases and word spreads overseas about this big-selling thing. It happened with DS... It was out for a while before it really took off with its killer app (Brain Age & Nintendogs, in that case).
The official press release also says Metal Mario is a playable character, but (without having watched the videos yet) has anyone seen a Metal Box being used as an item?
I can see why they kept this very Japan-centric. New Calciobit, new Girls Mode, new Friend Collection... Not exactly the kind of hardcore image Nintendo wants to promote overseas (for some reason)...

Quick thought... We have this firmware update coming in November (they usually hit roughly worldwide on 3DS)...
Who wants to bet that this will not only provide 3D video recording capabilities, but also allow for the remaining 3DS Ambassador GBA games to be played? So I expect we'll get our remaining games in November.

Flipnote 3DS please.
Also, I kinda hate that when Nintendo has big shows outside of Japan (like E3), NCL gives it full coverage and makes sure the Japanese audience knows this. When they show stuff in Japan, though...
Nintendo of America, I despise thee.

What interested me the most was Fire Emblem (currently playing Radiant Dawn and that game's a bitch), a bit confused on how another Monster Hunter was confirmed for the 3DS, interested in the lack of talk about the "ugly thing Nintendo is makin me buy"/Second Slide Pad+Shoulder Triggers and partially uninterested about anything like Kid Icarus, Mario Kart 7 or Super Mario Land 3D (AKA things we already know enough about to decide whether to buy them or not).
The conference was ok. Didn't phase me in any way noticeable, but I also didn't expect it to cause any hype anyway (not even MH4 said much to me). I just know I'll be ready to toss money at Nintendo when the time comes.
Oh, and Fryguy double posting? LIEK OMGZ ADMIN IZ N00-*banned*
Edit: oh, and Kid Icarus is getting delayed. Could this be so it can support the Second Slide Pad (useful for all those non-ambidextrous people), "fixing" the ground sections (since from what Fryguy and the internet has said, the aerial sections play out much better than the land ones), or just polish up on details? Regardless, this says that the end product will be worth the wait and (herp-a-derp) Smash Bros development is delayed as well, shucks.

Fire Emblem should not be written out of the picture right away. Ever since 2003 we have gotten all but one title, this isn't like the Tales series. The situation is much more like Ace Attorney, one game was not brought over but the series still has localization on its side.
On the subject of Kid Icarus, I embrace the news of a delay with open arms; they are likely listening to fans and press reviews and making the game more comfortable. I respect Sora and Nintendo for not rushing it out as a holiday game (Namco-Bandai is rushing Project Soul to release Soul Calibur V sooner than it should be, for instance)
Also I have always said Kid Icarus is a Greek adventure with an anime feel to it, and seeing them make actual anime episodes for it put a smile on my face. And by both Shaft and Production I.G.?! Ghost in the Shell: SAC quality, please!

Sakurai has said that they're planning a worldwide release for these 6 animated shorts. Each series having a different tone and main character. 1) Production I.G. (Ghost in the Shell, Fire Emblem 9, Wario Land Shake It) is making the first three episodes about Pit fighting against the God of War Thantos.  2) Shaft (Popotan, Maria Holic) is producing two comedy episodes about Palutena fighting against an army of vegetables.  3) Studio 4℃, (MEMORIES, Animatrix) is producing one episode about Medusa. The follows her defeat in the first game, to her come back in Uprising.  |

Hoo--- So the first one's from the makers of WarioLand Shake It- I'm up to that. (-lvl-)
The second one though sounds funny and interesting. Since Shaft's been known for it's crazy-absurd-nonsensical-popculture-parodying anime's, I've prepared my laughing belts already. Besides, since Palutena was kinda "funnying" and "screwing" around with Pit, it's no wonder she gets the funnies. XDDD
But the third one's most interesting. How Medusa, who was once huge beam-shooting eye on a wall, became resurrected? I can't wait.
