Original Post;

Nintendo put on an impressive show in mid September at the Nintendo Conference press event. But apparently they have even more to show.

The company announced today that it will hold the "Nintendo 3DS New Information Internet Presentation" on Friday (October 21). This pre-recorded presentation, hosted by CEO Satoru Iwata, will cover details that could not be covered during the September event.

As an example of what to expect from the event, Nintendo mentioned details on the November firmware update and Mario Kart 7's wireless play support.

The presentation will be held at 20:00 and will be broadcast at Ustream and Nico Nico Video. See Nintendo's page for links when the time comes.

[Dwight Schrute]

The Iwata of Nintendo. :lol



I'am Iwata from Nintendo ?

 

[Captain N]

[Provider]

A prerecorded conference with stuff that didn't make it in the september one.

 

[Ushojax]

Ohohohohohohoho!!! This has my interest. Hopefully they'll show off the revamped eShop as well! I bet they'll announce the GBA ambassador games here too.

 

[Drkirby]

Wait, so this means we get an October Conference, on top of the one not to long ago?

 

[VOOK]

If anyone can translate it better, I'll update the OP.

 

[C_H_T]

Wii U related? seems to early.

Likely about 3DS, maybe the new FW.

 

[Electivirus]

Readying my body for another dozen doomed threads.

 

[_Ace_]

They'll probably talk about the new 3ds FW + eShop update

 

[Orayn]

The bombs, Nintendo. Drop them. I am prepared.

[Kyoufu]

I hope the firmware update is good.

 

[jj984jj]

It's the same material with a few added details.

 

[GDGF]

I love surprise Nintendo conferences

 

[EatChildren]

I wonder if they'll touch on their supposedly revamped eshop.

Will the trainwreck remain? Find out this Friday.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Revision time? Revision time.

 

[DanteFox]

The physical manifestation of my person is well-prepared.

(my body is ready)

 

[blamite]

My box is ready.

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

From the way Andriasang has worded it, it sounds like that they'll be showing more than just the November update and Mario Kart 7's online mode.

I fully expect the GBA ambassador games to be announced here and details on the final release versions of the NES VC games.

This is probably when they originally planned to have their last 3DS conference, before they pushed it forward a month.

 

[jump_button]

Wii U *fingers cross*







yeah maybe to soon I think they show more in first part of next year

 

[cw_sasuke]

Live Stream ? Okay this firmware update could be big !!!

 

[WrathOfOtaibah]

It will be nothing like always, where are all those poor folk waiting for F-Zero?

 

[Sadist]

maybe we will finally hear the other 5 GBA games.

HAHAHAHHAHA, as if

But we need 'em

 

[GraveRobberX]

#28 post in, no one joked about going 3rd party or some weird Apple rumor, good job GAF

I think most likely will be a 3DS announcement of some sort, something towards it, WiiU I highly doubt it

 

[JosephManderley]

Probably show off the 3D video capture? That is supposed to be in the update I think?

 

[Social]

The Nintendo damage control train continues!

Years of neglect and silence except for 1 or 2 press events a year, and now this.

I'm not complaining though, I love my Nintendo info.

 

[gimz]

they will talk about Steve Jobs

 

[marc^o^]

Voice chat in Mario Kart 7? I certainly hope so

 

[[Nintex]]

I like this new panic attack Nintendo, can't wait what they have to show.

Maybe Miyamoto found something under an upended tea table.

 

[squall23]

I like this new panic attack Nintendo, can't wait what they have to show.

New? They proved panic mode was awesome back in GCN.

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Probably show off the 3D video capture? That is supposed to be in the update I think?

Yes it is. This is a list of everything that we know is in this update

Video Recording
Revamped eShop
OS Level Friend Invites (Used in Mario Kart 7)
Extra StreetPass Plaza content
(assuming, but highly likely) 3DS to 3DS system transfer feature unlocked

Anything I've forgotten that we already know of anyone?

 

[[Nintex]]

New? They proved panic mode was awesome back in GCN.

Not really, they kinda said fuck it we'll wait when our new console launches after 2004 and rushed out Zelda The Wind Waker oh and Connectivity.

Yes it is. This is a list of everything that we know is in this update

Video Recording
Revamped eShop
OS Level Friend Invites (Used in Mario Kart 7)
(assuming) 3DS to 3DS system transfer

Anything I've forgotten that we already know of anyone?

If Iwata wants to make Nintendo fans shit bricks he'll show Mario Kart 3DS + Mario Kart Wii U crossplatform online play.

 

[_Ace_]

A text message system would be great too...

 

[weeaboo]

Game demos please

 

[Rhod]

Where is the talk of a revamped eShop from? I'm not doubting, I'm just curious.

I've found some pretty cool stuff from the weekly cycling themes. I hope they stay in some form.

 

[EatChildren]

Kid Icarus AR card game, maybe multiplayer.

You know it.

Where is the talk of a revamped eShop from? I'm not doubting, I'm just curious.

I'm pretty sure it was the pre-TGS conference that Iwata said they were overhauling the eShop.

 

[Majine]

Shouldn't they start talking about Wii U? Been so quiet on that front.

 

[Mpl90]

Lot of curiosity for the November update!

 

[AniHawk]

New? They proved panic mode was awesome back in GCN.

what, with their shitty rushed games and near-killing of retro?

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Lot of curiosity for the November update!

Well they have been hyping it up for a good while, hell they were talking about the video recording update since before the June update even came out!

This had better be good and I had better get my friends messaging! (Hell, even the Wii had friends messaging!)

 

[Mpl90]

So, in Japan it is at 8 PM.
...But for the West?

 

[Disguises]

Interesting. Looking forward to some information about the November update.

 

[iamaustrian]

btw shouldn't be the GBA ambassador games available sometime in october?
or did they dely them?

 

[AniHawk]

Spoiler

[mclem]

A prerecorded conference with stuff that didn't make it in the september one.

If it's prerecorded... how do people *confer*?

 

[ConradCervantes]

It'd be a good idea to get them out before the November deluge before people forget about them.

Oh yeah, conference is devoted exclusively to Metroid Dread 3DS. You heard it here first!
