This whole Nintendo Zone thing doesn't seem to work.

Monster Hunter 4 just outsold the PS Vita's lifetime to date sales in Japan in 2 days. That's insane.

New Zelda MIXING THINGS UP by getting rid of the convention where you get a new item in a dungeon and need to solve puzzles using that item.

Now, the items are available in a shop and you have to find the dungeon for that item, so you can tackle the dungeons in any order. A bit like Zelda 1... With a shop.

December 6th for Bravely Default. Looks like Square can still make handheld RPGs, even if they shit the bed on console nowadays.

The side-scrolling with more stuff in the foreground reminded me of Virtual Boy Wario Land.

For those with Animal Crossing New Leaf, Nintendo is giving away a Wind Waker-esque shirt for free and all that needs to be done is to scan the codes from today's Nintendo Direct episode.

It does? I've got a route to walk to work based on the Nintendo Zone maps and I get 10 before lunch easily. With this 6 tag at a time business, I'll be rolling in streetpass.

None of the locations around here work. When I went to Best Buy to get the Nintendo Zone DLC for Animal Crossing, the guys there spent over a half hour trying to get it to work, but they couldn't.

According to tweets and at least one known instance, Ninetendo is going hard after any retailer caught selling Pokemon X & Y early. They've already warned Walmart's Brazil branch to not send out copies early while several retailers in Canada were given severe warnings.

New puzzles were released for the Streetpass Puzzle Swap game yesterday, probably timed so people can swap pieces while picking up Pokemon today.

According Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma, A Link Between Worlds development was changed a bit after Nintendo announced the 2DS. Nobody on his team was aware of its existence until it was revealed and as a result had to rework several 3D-based puzzles to make it work for the handheld.

http://www.destructoid.com/link-betw...d-263972.phtml


Nintendo's currently working on a patch to fix saving issues with Pokemon X & Y in regards to Lumoise City. They currently advise to save when inside buildings in the city and avoid saving in the known areas so far that trigger the bug.

Nintendo revealed cross-platform play will also be possible on the 3DS with more games currently in development or arriving soon having that feature. As of now just 3 games support the feature between the 3DS and Wii U.

Nintendo Direct Highlights:

Upcoming firmware update will include Miiverse, Nintendo Network ID, and option to merge the 3DS and Wii U eshop balances into a single account balance. The only downside is once a Nintendo Network ID is made, can't have separate balance accounts for different regions.

Quote:

Q: I have used Nintendo eShop in different regions, and I have funds in multiple currencies in my balance. What will happen to these funds after I register a Nintendo Network ID?

A: After registering a Nintendo Network ID, you will be unable to change regions and use multiple currencies – for instance, pounds and euros – in Nintendo eShop. The funds in the currency that corresponds to the country setting of your Nintendo Network ID will remain, and any funds in other currencies will be deleted and no longer usable. Please make sure to use up any other currencies before registering a Nintendo Network ID to your Nintendo 3DS system.
