Enjoy the extra goodies!
The 3DS update is now available to all 3DS owners. This is the update promised by Nintendo to be released in November, so it may be late, but now your 3DS can do so much more.
Well excuuuuuse me, princess!
It has been confirmed by Nintendo themselves that Skyward Sword contains a game breaking glitch that will prevent players from progressing through the game. Initially it wasn’t known what was triggering the bug, but now that the exact triggers are known we wanted to inform you how to avoid this game stopping issue.
Apparently Mario and Zelda games sell really, really well.
Nintendo hasn’t been doing so well in the sales department lately. Wii sales are stagnant, the 3DS got off to a rough start and new titles have been few and far between for both systems. But even with all that considered, when things look bleak for Nintendo they can always count on Link and Mario to do some heavy lifting and they did just that this past “Black Friday” setting records along the way.
The Big N is making sure everyone will find something they'll like in the 3DS.

Taking fun to another dimension.
It’s time to rise up, my friends! It’s time to storm Nintendo HQ and liberate the concentrated fun they slowly leak out to us, the common man. We’ve been waiting years for the next proper handheld Mario game, and they finally deigned to give us… Super Mario 3D Land. Now that we have it we know what we’ve been missing out on and can only wonder what else they must be keeping from us. Super Mario 3D Land is a delicious feast from Nintendo’s fun hoard that is not only a worthy installment in the Super Mario Bros. oeuvre, but it also evolves the series, makes good use of the 3DS’s capabilities, and offers a flawless platforming experience.
Leaked before by Black Friday Ads, Nintendo confirms two new 3DS bundles
Black Friday ads from Gamestop to Sears have mentioned a 3DS bundle with Super Mario 3D Land and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. These bundles came with a model of the 3DS not previously seen. These are not special to the shoppers holiday, though, as Nintendo has now confirmed.
Just don't ask us when that will be.
At this past E3 Nintendo pulled back the curtains on the Wii U, the company’s first gaming platform capable of producing High Definition graphics. While the controller and muddled presentation of the system took most of the spotlight, Nintendo produced a sizzle reel of 3rd party games that are said to be in development for the new system. One of the more notable games in the reel was Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge, a title that should give Nintendo some credentials with the mature gaming audience. While we still don’t know for sure when the game is set to hit shelves, we have it on good authority it will launch alongside the system promoting it.
"Nintendo now know they absolutely need to support two tablets."
When the Wii U was officially announced at this year's E3, the idea of a room full of people each with their own tablet was quickly dashed when it was revealed the system could only support a single tablet at a time. Nintendo is reportedly trying to change this by working out a way to support two tablets on one system.
