The nintendo press conference

we will try to list the news as they come in :)

  • Iwata shows 3DS feature where hardware can auto-merge two photos into 1 (disturbing) image; demos with himself n miyamot
  • There’s a Tag Mode Mii Plaza. Sounds a bit like a better version of the Wii’s plaza.
  • A Virtual Console (or at least something like it) has been confirmed for GB and GBA games!
  • 3DS unit will come w 2GB SD card packed in
  • The home button can be used to access system functionality mid-game. Background music anyone?
  • 3DS can connect on WiFi when in sleep mode and auto-dl data, including rankings, ghost rankings, free software, n more
  • Light on upper-right of 3DS unit, practically on R shoulder, shows when your console has passed another 3DS n got data
  • Apparently, Tag Mode will work right out of the box, no set-up necessary. I’m sure you still need to set it up to connect to your home WiFi network, though.
