Big 3DS Title Reveal on September 13th

    Anyone want to take a guess? :)
    Nintendo's stock has soared following news that it's holding a major 3DS event in Tokyo on 13th September, just before Tokyo Game Show kicks off.

    According to Andriasang, Nintendo is planning on announcing an "extremely big" title around that time - presumably at the Tokyo event.

    As noted by Gamasutra, the company's stock shot up 8.4 per cent to ¥13,100 on news of the conference, which will be confined to trade and media.

    Maybe those investors know something we don't. A new Monster Hunter? Pokémon? Dragon Quest? Steel Diver 2? Place your bets.

    It better be a new title, not a 3DS version of Metroid Prime/Majoras Mask/Insert other rehashed game here.

    "Mario brothers gang bang Zelda and *Metroid prime chick* while Link watches and cries 2"


    i realy hope it wont be just marioland and mario kart...

    Joystiq is suggesting a redesign of the 3DS, but I doubt it very highly that they would do it. At this stage, thay HAVE to be announcing GAMES, GAMES and more GAMES. It's the only way to spur sales for them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,081 ✭✭✭ollie1


    First thing that came into my head was Pokemon .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,705 ✭✭✭Mr Trade In


    Smash Bros 3D would be my guess.

    I think ShadowHearth is on the money. It's definitely a gangbang title.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭pdbhp


    Metroid, Zelda most likely of the big N franchises yet to have any sort of announcement.

    Or could it possibly be a new I.P? you never know.
    Whatever it is it had better blow me away or it'll be another disappointment:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 905 ✭✭✭tbahh


    Smash Bros 3DS has yet to begin production as Sakurai is completing Kid Icarus: Uprising

    There have been rumours that a two Fire Emblem titles (in similar tradition to that of Pokemon) are coming to the 3DS

    Normally, Pokémon announcements are not made by Nintendo but I think it could be the remakes of Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire or Pokémon Grey.

    Finally. 3D Porn!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,898 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I really hope it's not a redesign, it will really lose them faith with customers.

    Now if they manage to get Monster Hunter as an exclusive then that's a big game changer.

    I could see a monster hunter game. It would mean that capcom could put off putting in the budget for a HD monster hunter for even longer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    Best guess is either a designed-for-3DS Zelda game or the first of the Pokemon games on the system.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Mr. K


    I've voiced my support for Nintendo throughout the 3DS firestorm, but a redesign would really, really annoy me.

    New Zelda, Pokémon or Castlevania would make me happy though.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,249 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    3D Pokimans


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 171 ✭✭ScaldyMc


    Metroid Prime in 3D would be great. Don't want a new game, just want to play them again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,120 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    As I said on N-Europe:
    The Legend of Zelda: Megaton warrior 3D

    Tingle finds the Megaton hammer and embarks upon an epic quest to rescue Link and Zelda from the hands of the pig demon, Ganon!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,924 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    zelda game would be a bit stupid, considering we got OOT.

    i presume there are 2 mario games set for holidays? kart and land.

    best bet would be Castlevania or metroid prime.

    i really hope its not fecking pokemon....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    As I said on N-Europe:
    Personally I'd hate to see such a game. The 3DS has great capabilities, so would hate to see them waste a Zelda title on a Tingle/Wind-Waker type game again. There's no reason why they can't give us a fully-fledged, OoC/Twilight Princess type Zelda game.

    OT but wind waker and waste should never ever be in the same sentence


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    fingers crossed for a global release of Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 3D - if nothing else, it's a game that DEMANDS two sensitive analog pads, so it's the perfect title to launch the rumoured redesign with :)

    Or maybe there will finally be a handheld wrestling game that can compare to the wonders of Wrestlemania 2000 or NWO vs NCW 2 on N64...?

    OMG OMG

    Finally finally Nintendo have heard my prayers

    The new big game wow its Ground breaking
    An absolute Diamond of a game

    This is the release that will flatten Sony and Microsoft once and for all

    Its Finally here...................................






    Boulder Dash 3D:D






    But seriously its gonna be Zelda


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin


    A new pet simulation perhaps?

    Nintendogs 3D - Now you get to scratch, sniff & drool in all three dimensions :rolleyes:

    Seriously though, it has to be a flagship title! A new non-port game, mario?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,898 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    It might just be nintendo holding it's own conference before TGS similar to their old space world conferences. Nintendo never show up at TGS so usually have their own event around the same time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Mr. K


    best bet would be Castlevania

    I can't see Nintendo hyping up Castlevania too much, they've never done so in the past. If it's a game, it'll be Mario, Zelda, Metroid...or 3DS Sports Resort. In 3D. :pac:

    Or Donkey Kong?? We haven't seen a DK (RPG, non of this music/konga rubbish) game in ages, or is there still issues between Nintendo and Rare over DK?

    Donkey Kong Country Returns (Wii) just eight months ago? It was a brand new game, save for a few retro touches. It's also very awesome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    Totally forgot about that, looks pretty good too! I reckon a DK game would go well on the 3DS.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 905 ✭✭✭tbahh


    I want a new Zelda game for the 3DS (other than a Majora's Mask remake). And I say it might be. Or as I have said previously, Pokémon or Fire Emblem.

    A few months ago, when a new Pokémon game was meant to be announced, they had images of what appeared to be a sequel to the gamecube gake XD; Gale of Darkness. So, I am now thinking that it could be this. Since they are going to announce a BIG title, Pokémon Grey or remakes of the 3rd generation don't seem to be BIG titles, as they will just be enhanced versions of previously released games. So, I think it will be the sequel now. (And hopefully a new Zelda).

    With Monster Hunter, wouldn't Capcom just announce it themselves as they publish it in Japan. Unless they will appear at the conference..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,013 ✭✭✭✭jaykhunter


    Yep, i bet it's a heavy hitter. So the new Pokemon. With a mario coming out soon I don't think it'll be another 2D mario; and with the console release of Skyward Sword I don't think it'll be another Zelda. So Pokemon!

    It's was meant to be a joke. I personally despise Tingle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭Nollog


    My money is on metroid.
    Could be brand new, but steel diver makes me think it would be better for miyamoto to stop creating things.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,770 ✭✭✭smokingman


    I just want ANY first person shooter at this stage and a Metroid would be a good fit seeing as it involved a lot of scanning objects - in 3-D that'd probably equate to a lot more scanning than in previous games.

    Still holding out hope for a CoD 3ds game - that would be me sorted for ages if that happened....

    the problem there would be the lack of the right analogue stick. and to be honest i'd much rather get a different franchise on the 3ds than COD (although it could showcase the wi-fi multiplayer pretty well, i guess)

    Finally. 3D Porn!

    3D porn? Isn't that just sex? :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,063 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    It's Monster Hunter, and I'd bet there's a 3DS redesign along with it

    Resurrection of Metroid Dread?

    Having never played FFVII it would be a good excuse to buy a 3DS to play it.

    It's not really FF7

    That's what iwas thinking too.

    If they would have given a ff7 original remake, then 3ds would sell like hot pancakes.

    In the end of the day: one more remake?! Oh ffs...

    2 more days anyway...

    Is this it? :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,617 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    No, its the new Monster Hunter game (Monster Hunter Tri G).
    I'm hoping there is more though....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,617 ✭✭✭✭Mr E




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Wolverine359


    There didn't seem to be much announced after all. According to twitter feeds, all I've seen announced was zelda 4 swords anniv. edition for dsi/3ds free on 9/28, 3d video capture and streetpass plaza update in november, the slide pad released in japan on dec 10, and a pink 3ds...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Wolverine359


    And skyward sword will apparently have 50-100 hours of gameplay, with suggestions of a second playthrough with boss mode maybe. And animal crossing 3ds will allow you to customise the exterior of your house! yippee...


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,673 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    Fire Emblem people, they showed Fire Emblem, all of the Fire Emblem.

    For 3DS actually. Pretty big coup for nintendo.



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin


    The analog pad has its own pair of built-in AAA batterie

    From the above article. Added system capacity? Or does this thing need batteries to even function (ie doesn't draw power from the 3ds itself)?

    As far as I know, it takes just one AAA battery, and doesn't add any battery power to the 3ds itself.
