One of my most anticipated titles on the 3DS, besides Dead or Alive Dimensions, is the revival of the Kid Icarus franchise but todays news isn’t making me happy. According to Reggie Fils-Aimewe shouldn’t be expecting Kid Icarus or even Zelda to land on the 3DS at launch or even until after E3. Last Updated: January 27, 2011

Team Ninja has come out in support of the 3DS’s poor battery life by simultaneously trash talking the entire 3D genre and worrying every parent on the block. The head of Team Ninja, Yosuke Hayashi, while being asked about the battery life stated basically, 3D viewing for a long time would be kind of tiring for your eyes, that’s why …

Shocked and surprised? Yeah, me neither. The world’s most iconic and beloved video game character, Nintendo’s plump plumber has now officially been given that accolade, thanks to a user poll run by the publisher (and maker of that black liquid that powers all of Ireland). Mario came out tops, garnering more than 10% of the entire vote. Haha, suck it, …

If you’ve been a regular reader, you’ll know that I’m terribly, terribly excited for Nintendo’s 3DS. As keen as I am, the confirmation that the device will employ region locking has dampened my enthusiasm somewhat. The lack of regional restrictions on handheld gaming systems has been a boon for travellers, accustomed to purchasing new and interesting games on their travels. …

Today’s news is pretty much all about one thing; Nintendo’s 3DS. Yesterday we got a release date and some pricing, though local retail cost is to be confirmed. It’s a pricy handheld, launching at the same price the PSP did back in 2005, and almost twice what the original DS cost when it went on sale. Still, it’s less than …

Last night Nintendo held a preview event for the 3DS in Holland. It was hosted by Jonathan Ross (yeah, that talk-show host comedian guy from England) and the entire 80 minutes of awkward announcements loaded with broken English, French accents and Ross’s lisp can be seen here if you absolutely have to. If you couldn’t really give a rat’s left …
