Nintendo has just published its release schedule for the Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo DS and Wii. There’s quite a few to be determined scattered throughout the release schedule.

That’s not a rough schedule. That’s a shitty schedule.
Are you kidding!? I am getting at LEAST 5 of those games the day each one is released…Animal Crossing, Luigi’s Mansion, Fire Emblem, Pokemon White 2, Paper Mario. Later I might get Pokemon Black 2 and Super Mario Bros. 2…
Only 3 titles were given actual set-in-stone dates, and we already knew the release date for the XL.
This is a pretty shitty list.
He’s talking about the quality of the list, not the games.
Sorry, my comment was not meant for you.
He said it was a shitty schedule not shitty games, you need to read good sir.
Luigi’s Mansion, Paper Mario AND Professor Layton all in the holiday season?….fuck it, im buying a 3DS next pay day xD
At this point, just wait for Aug. 19th and get the XL. :3
I dont want an XL. 3DS are cheaper, amd have a better colour finish IMO, not to mention smaller.
Do they come with the adapter in the UK? -.-
The XL or the original?…
Original. The only thing i dont like about the XL is the shape and colour finish, and the size, its a beast. I duno, depends how my funds are looking next week :|
If you don’t already have a 3DS, then I would go for the XL if you could. I have not seen/held a XL yet but in my opinion the things I like better about it just by looking at photos:
– System size
– Rounded corners
– Better looking 3D Slider
– Better Select/Home/Start Buttons
I would be curious to see what the graphics look like on the larger screen. Don’t get me wrong I love my red, original 3DS but I would be interested in looking at an XL. Doers anyone know if they have 3DS XL’s at the Wii U Experience events? I am going to one this Friday and I am curious if the XL’s will be there?
Ive preordered an XL xD as well as the charger -.-
Where did you pre-order it from? I’m interested in getting an XL, but only if the price is right :)
I love my original and I think they look more appealing. Im very pleased with it. The XL is great too I’m sure
XL seems to be the better choice. The screen has a better 3d viewing angle, better anti glare screen. It’s more comfortable and has a better battery life.
I would buy XL over the regular but I already have one since launch day :)
And normal 3ds’s get’s scratch marks on the 3d screen it’s sad because it ruins the 3d experience :(
Guessing the XL doesnt? Ive just preorder the XL anyway, overall seems like a better investment, 3DS sounds as though it has a few issues
The only minus XL gets from me is the size (which is also a plus xD)
True,i neverusedto gooutsidealot with mygameboy/DS, mainly because of glare though. It was just usedat home and forlong journys,sometime onbreaks at work
I believe they’ve reduced the glare with the new revision.
i have had my 3ds since launch day and i have no scratches on mine.
Then you’re lucky or have you used some protectors or something?
Hmm, depends if theres any good deal going on, most likely packaged with NSMB2.
The original, yes, the XL no.
Make sure you get a screen protector for at least the top screen. I recommend the bottom screen too, but the rubber bumpers are awful and the bottom screen can leave scratches on the top one when you close it a lot.
I got HORI Screen Protectors for my 3DS top and bottom screen. A fairly cheap but great screen protector. Pretty easy to apply and very few bubbles. I highly reccomend these.
Oops… recommend**
Also, i live in the UK so i get mine, on friday :p
NINTENDO OF AMERICA SUCKS! its the retarded cousin if Nintendo’s branches!
Explain why it sucks? It is there to take the JAPANESE made games and make them AMERICAN!!! Without Nintendo of America we wouldnt have a lot of the games we have today from Nintendo…
the only thing they give us is nintendo games we had to beg for like 7 7 months for xenoblade and xseed just said fuck it a are releasing last story because noa suckss!
So becuase they didn’t release two games that, if it hadn’t been for all the attention they had gotten they would have sold like crap, NoA is suddenly a terrible company.
u do realized that they did that to extended Wii life for a bit longer.
nice
kirby special edition at september. noooo¡ i dont have any money
I can not wait to play Kirby’s Dream Collection. I have fond memories of playing Kirby’s Dreamland on the original Gameboy and can’t wait to be able to play it again!
Professor Layton, Pokémon Black 2, NSMB2, Paper Mario and Luigi’s Mansion… yeesh, my wallet stings already.
Yeah not sure if I can afford ALL of this…I am going to be forced to pick and choose!
I can not wait for a lot of these…and now for some Wii U news PLEASE! I am stoked about all of this great Nintendo stuff coming our way!
I’m eyeing you paper Mario…can’t wait until they reveal their plans for the Wii U release date
Holidays will be a blast. ;O
i cant wait for paper Mario :D that game is the best
if any would like to check out my website its called nintendocenter.wordpress.com but i dont think i will ever be as good as MyNintendoNews
LMFAO!!!!!!!!! Ever as good as this site? You’re joking right? Please tell me you are.
why do you like my site ?
Well, Christmas should be fun. :)
OMG. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
WHEN THE HELL IS AN ANIMAL CROSSING 3DS RELEASE DATE,
STOP SHOWING US FREAKING FOOTAGE OF THE GAME AND FEATURES,
IF WE’RE JUST GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER FULL YEAR FOR IT
AND NOT TO MENTION THE ENGLISH VERSION?!?!!?!/ A’;SLDA\ASDDFHOFP\S
I WANT PAPER MARIO NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Erm… HELLO?! Why is no-one mentioning that Smash 3DS is down for 2012 release?
Ikr bro
No where does it say that SSB 3D is coming out in 2012…
Its not, it just says TBD
ummmm…the game is just starting in development…It wont be out until NEXT Christmas, let alone this upcoming one…
Wat? Smash JUST started development, we might see the game in 2014, or if were lucky in 2013. But 2012? Do you really believe that? The game would be absolutely terrible if it came out that early!
I agree, that’s way too early. As a loyal fangirl of nintendo and the super smash bros series, I would actually be screaming to sakurai “TAKE YOUUUUUR TIME!”. I don’t care if it take 2 years or 3 years to be made, a good gamer wants a good game and in order to have a good game, we need to let the team have the time to develop a good game. Also, remember what they said in the E3, that they will try to make it work with 3ds and wii U altogether; Counting as well the graphics of the wii u and the new controls.
Oh wow! I am so getting Animal Crossing, Luigi’s Mansion, Fire Emblem, Paper Mario and Pokemon White all on day 1 release!!! :D I love having money!
:/ No animal crossing yet.
It’s over, Nintendo is finished.
finished with breakfast
Now on to Second Breakfast!
make mii dinner, now!!!
haha i get it
at least us 3ds owners won’t starve for games this year.
That’s nice. I can’t wait for B2W2. I’ll play them on my 3DS.
Nintendo still not changing.The sales for pokémon are going to stay for a while.
Added to my calender
How dare you release good games so close to the Wii U release? YOU MUST DIE!
I would like to “start to see” a TBD Zelda 3DS game…
Me too D: an overhead old school Zelda as well, maybe even a 4 swords/Phantom Hourglass love child. That would rock my shit so hard.
They are deciding between Majora’s Mask or a Link to the Past. To be honest, I want Majora’s Mask for Wii U.
Why….dont get me wrong, i like MM, but for WiiU, just seems a waste, they can be more creative with the gamepad if they made a new title
To be honest, I’d like a new 3D game for the 3ds. wouldn’t that make sense??
yes, I think so. However, I also heard that Miyamoto wants to make the sequel of a link to the past in the 3ds.
All I need is 2000$ and Ill be set for Nintendo this Holiday season.
All I need is my dose of Fire Emblem sooner!
that is pretty rough
Meh… it’s ok
testing
Where is EX Troopers. That game looks amazing
Nintendo’s not publishing that game. Capcom is for that one.
The quantity of games on the list is not great. :( The games listed is awesome and I think they forgot to put Code of Princess in there.
Nintendo’s not publishing that game. Atlus is doing that one.
Can anybody please tell me what “Holiday” season meana? You know, it’s Summer holiday season in Europe right now, and that term seems to be so unspecific… it could mean anything. :P I guess they mean December?
Nov-Dec
Did Nintendo forget about Metroid? No anniversary game or news? We love Metroid except for Metroid Other M. Trilogy was the best. Please release a new one.
