so remember sega's 3D classics that dropped in Japan some time back? good news, they're comin' this way.

Today we are very excited to announce details on the highly anticipated 3D remake of iconic and arcade classics for the Nintendo 3DS. Each of these titles will be priced at $5.99/€4.99/£4.49 and available for download in the Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS. Release dates for the titles are as follows:

3D Space Harrier, 3D Super Hang-On – 11/28/2013

3D Sonic The Hedgehog, 3D Altered Beast – 12/5/2013

3D Ecco the Dolphin™, 3D Galaxy Force II – 12/12/2013

3D Shinobi III, 3D Streets of Rage – 12/19/2013

“These games were completely re-built to offer a robust 3D experience that offers more modern gameplay while still keeping true to the original,” commented John Cheng, President and COO, SEGA of America. “We look forward to bringing these classic SEGA titles to Nintendo 3DS for fans – both old and new.”

Also for those who are worried that these are just LET'S ADD 3D DEPTH TO OLD GAMES YAY, don't worry. There's more to these than meets the eye.

Take, for example, what 3D Streets of Rage offers.

3D Streets of Rage will feature fully remapping options for the controls, a CRT-like filter for the image, sound options, save states, level select, stereoscopic 3D graphics, both the Japanese or overseas version of the game to choose whom you would like to play, and a unique new feature.

This time, it’s one-hit deathblow mode, a new option where you can defeat the enemies with only one hit, giving a new pace to the game who will make it easer to less experienced players. Also, there is local co-op multiplayer available, so if you and a friend have a Nintendo 3DS and a copy of the game each, you can play together this classic beat-em up.

So yeah. Look forward to these!

Fuck, Nintendo has shut down swapnote because minors were exchanging inappropriate pictures with it. WHy do people have to take a good thing and ruin it for everyone? I liked sending silly notes to my friends.

All swapnote is good for now is streetpass notes, which is both broken and virtually useless because the receiving party must be on your friends list.

Feel kind of dumb for not posting this in the proper thread: 4983-5220-8737.

I'm pretty much playing Pokemon X mostly now and feel that's where the code will get the most use. Also have a bunch of Mega Man and Sonic games downloaded. Kirby's Adventure in 3D is done really well and really wish Capcom will put out the other Game Boy Mega Man games out in the eShop already.

So after a few years, I had an Aqua Blue 3DS, traded up to an XL, got rid of that, then got a refurbed Midnight Purple 3DS(fav color), and as such I has a new friend code! Add me and I shall do the same for everyone!

0963 - 0382 - 2509

Right now I'm trying to rebuild my collection digitally, so I just have Pokemon Y right now, but let's have at it!

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- A December system update for the Nintendo 3DS portable system will allow users to combine their Nintendo eShop account balance for both Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. Nintendo announced the news during a Nintendo Direct video released earlier today.
