Looks like the Nintendo eShop will be both down in Europe and Japan at the same time. October 3rd 20:00 CET till October 4th 05:00 CET. For Japan, the times are 03:00 till 12:00 JST on October 4th.

Things getting more interesting?

All Wii purchased NES, Super NES, Genesis and TG-16 titles immediately available on 3DS.
Bwohohohoho.. a simple Wii U + 3DS account system will be a fine start. I'm willing to accept my Wii is a lost cause for the most part except for 'Wii Mode'
 
Account system?

Are you guys on dope :lol
This would be awesome, so please don't hype this

This isn't hard, Nintendo. You could hire some poor CS students from the local university to slap their fat meat hands onto keyboards and make it happen. You have driven me to madness Nintendo, you have driven me to this pure unbridled desire to hype because you can't even get this simple, basic bullet point what have you done to me

Dual Stick 3DS, trollololol

Will wait for DSi revision.

C'mon Nibel. Having an account system on the WiiU and not the 3DS when you're making games for them side by side is a pretty stupid idea. With the DS you had the excuse of not being able to update the OS, but with 3DS it should be easy. PSP didn't support PSN accounts out the box did it? Well... the PSN wasn't even a thing, so I know it didn't.

Well derr, of course the eStore has to be down in multiple regions. How else can the synchronise a global e-release of Shenmue III?

No way am I getting hyped for this. Its probably just release dates and trailers for the 3ds holiday line up. Is NOA having one too? When is TGS again btw?

Okay fine let's believe that the account system is coming. After all, they did say* that an account system was coming for both 3DS and WiiU, and WiiU launch is in less that a week* so they can't take much longer. After the update, I'm sure* that we'll see GBA VC cross-buyable for 3DS/WiiU, with Off-TV play support, like Wii games*.

Help.

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
Just got a Swap Note (Letter Box) message from Shibata advertising this on my 3DS.
Sadly, no new stationery though.

I refuse to believe this will be a big update unless we hear something similar from NOA. My fingers are certainly crossed either way though.

Imagine the direct starts.

A trailer is being shown...

The title "Shenmue III" materializes, followed by a "-DS" (like you said).

Then the "III" transformes into a "3".

"Shenmue 3DS".

So simple. So awsome. GAF down forever! :D

It could be a case where they make the necessary changes to accommodate the account system in advance and then later when it is announced they simply have to "flip a switch". I was expecting that we wouldn't get such an update (if the account system IS coming to the 3DS) until the Wii U launched anyway. I was expecting we'd get confirmation sometime in October at a ND for the Wii U's online functions.

Unlike E3, I've never been let down by a Nintendo Direct yet.

Maybe we'll even get the Kirby 20th Anniversary game.
