Nintendo Direct 10.1.13

[Inuuto]

Here's a guess:
Satoru Iwata: We will be bringing MiiVerse to the 3DS in a future update. We will also like to announce that there will be an update within two weeks. I hope everyyone updates to play You-Know-What. *laughs*

Seriously though, if you don't want to update your 3DS to anything above 6.3, buy everything you might want on the eShop because it's going to be a long wait after the next update.

Technically they can disable the region check altogether with a software update... except they won't since they introduced the region lock for a very specific purpose and importers are not working in their favor. Nintendo wants to keep dividing their profits between the branches because they live in a make-believe reality and are incapable of getting their sh*t together, restructuring and creating a centrally-administrated system like eveybody else... too many CEO's would lose their jobs and neither NoA nor NoE wants that to happen - they want to remain independent companies-in-a-company.

oh I know the reasons, just pointing out that it's the games that are region locked, though I guess I didn't think they could disable it with a software update. Despite that, when I read that it was a bit of a "derp of course" moment.

Iwata: We are glad to announce Pokémon FlareRed, OceanBlue, and AquaSapphire and MagmaRuby! Out Christmas 2013!!!

Why the hell would they announce a Pokémon game so close to Pokémon X and Y release date?
If they are going to announce any new Pokémon it will be for late 2014 or later

Nintendo 3DS slim

I am hoping they will finally do the right thing and establish an account system and link purchases from WiiU and 3ds to that account and not the system. Its wishful thinking I know but hey its what I want to hear tomorrow.

 

[hhs]

I'm ready to get disappointed!

At best we'll get that new Zelda mentioned that'll eventually come out. Maybe a launch date for Smash. But the Direct track record tells me we'll get a lot of talking and nothing worth mentioning.

Still never understood how the original DS did so well despite being region free, and selling over 150,000,000 units.... Let's hope we get an unified account system (yeah right lol _

Edit: changed to "region free" derp.

Super Mario Sunshine: Islands/Bright Sun ^ ^.
Would love to see a new iteration of 3DS (X"X"L/XLSLIM/VB2) but they just anounced 2DS so..
Also could use Starfox 64 2/Lylat Wars 3D.

"We will be bringing the MiiVerse DIRECTLY to you. The Miiverse will be delivered DIRECTLY to you in a future update. Stay tuned for more things delivered DIRECTLY to you!"

 

[Supernovakid]

Iwata: Miiverse for 3ds and flipnote studio 3d, will be available straight after this nintendo direct. They may do this, seeing as its the start of fall . Hope so, they done this with some games in the eshop... Now i just have to find my 3ds.

 

[beta4attack]

Calling it now:
A Link Between Worlds
Bravely Default
Some sort of deal or promotion
Flipnote Studio 3D
Maybe some VC news for Wii U
Mario Party Island Tour
Wii U fall update
3DS update teaser
Art Academy Sketchpad lessons
Super Mario 3D World
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
New SSB4 character (If we're lucky enough)

I don't think we're getting any info on something new since it's just for titles that are already stated as a 2013 release.

1. most DS users don't give a shit because casual
2. it wasn't region locked

 

[EyeZ]

So no Rune Factory 4 and no Monster Hunter 4!
I'm kinda sad but i knew that i won't get any information about RF4.

I was informing Gamerzhell of the game he was asking about, as he seemed he wanted some news of it.

The original DS was not region locked, the locking started with the DSi. Apart from the iQue systems which had an additional chip storing Chinese fonts, each and every DS is the same and can play games from any region.

 

[Jiehfeng]

Awesome. Not gonna expect anything though, but I hope for the best!

 

[Issac]

Anyone know if the European Bravely Default will be the old or the new (better?) version?

Found the answer myself! It is the new version! That's great
