Theatrhythm Final Fantasy
The two 3DS exclusives have been given American release dates.
Square Enix previously announced both Theatrhythm Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] for the US, but failed to provide a release date for either. Today, both titles have received western release dates, and both are coming in July. Theatrhythm Final Fantasy kicks the month off with a July 3 release date and Kingdom Hearts 3D closes it out, releasing on July 31. For those who can't wait, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy will be playable at PAX East at the Square Enix booth (#850).
The popular (in Japan) rhythm game gets a North American release window
Final Fantasy has produced some odd spinoffs, but none are quite so odd and charming as the franchise’s first foray onto the Nintendo 3DS, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy. Upon its release in Japan this past February the rhythm/RPG hybrid saw a 90% sell through, pushing just under 70,000 units in its first week alone. While it had been previously noted that the game would be coming to North America at some point, it wasn’t until today that we had any inkling as to when that could be.
We get a glimpse of what DLC will be like on Nintendo's 3D handheld.
Nintendo is starting to take baby steps into the realm of paid DLC. One of the first titles that will take advantage of this new (to Nintendo platforms) feature is Square Enix’s Theatrhythm Final Fantasy. The rhythm game will allow users to download additional songs to their 3DS.
Multiple accounts per system are on the way.
Nintendo's online system has long been a point of contention for both fans of Nintendo and hopeful adopters. Given the major strides made in online integration to home consoles this generation, Nintendo has finally announced plans to deliver similar services on the upcoming Wii U system, as well as a number of other functionalities that encompass the 3DS. The overarching online solution is branded under the name "Nintendo Network." Perhaps the most important announcement is that the Wii U will have individual user accounts - no longer will the online functionality be tied to the system itself.
