As the 3DS got limited time allotted to it during Nintendo's E3 press conference, it will get its own special showcase to show more of what is coming. Let's see what the 3DS has in store!
Castlevania: Lord of Shadows: Mirror of Fate: Control Trevor Belmont as he searches for the evil that killed his mother. It's part of the Lord of Shadows franchise. It has a new combat system, including dark magic and the ability to grab enemies. Secondary weapons, such as the boomerang will aid in combat. Notes can be made on the Touch Screen Map. Fall 2012
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon: Toad can follow Luigi in some areas. The strobe function on the flashlight helps for catching ghosts. Beams of multiple colors of light will reveal hidden areas. It will be available as a physical game or a download. Holiday 2012
Disney Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion: It's an entirely new game, not a port. It involves the Castle of Illusion appearing in Wasteland. Maleficent has trapped toons in the castle in Wasteland before their time so she can return to the Toon World. Mickey will use paint and thinner to make his way to save his friends, using the Touch Screen. November 18. 2012
Paper Mario: Sticker Star: The first Paper Mario on a handheld system. It will feature hilarious characters and new features. Stickers will be used for everything, especially in battle. The Touch Screen contains the sticker album, with stickers for attacks and dodging. Items that seem to be from the real world are very important. A new view, called Paperizing Mode, allows you to place stickers on the world. Mario will also have partners. The level-up system will be different, so Mario won't get experience from battling, but rather by helping people, similar to Okami. Sticker inventory must be carefully managed as some stickers are quite large. Spending coins will start a Bingo-style event that may give bonuses and allow for the use of up to three stickers at once. Holiday 2012
Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance: New Disney characters will appear. Sora and Riku will be playable characters. Dreameaters will be unlockable using AR Cards. Street Pass will function and the game will be compatible with the Circle Pad Pro. July 31, 2012
Scribblenauts: Unlimited: It will have a new world and have Street Pass functionality. Finally, we'll learn Maxwell's story. It's an open world exploration.
Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes: Batman and Robin join forces with the Justice League to defeat the Joker and Lex Luther.
Transformers Prime: The Game
Rabbids Rumble
Heroes of Ruin
The Amazin Spiderman
Pokemon Black 2 and White 2: Playable on the Nintendo DS, but will have extra features on the 3DS. Pokemon Dream Radar allows 3DS users to capture Pokemon and transfer them to the Black 2 and White 2. Pokedex 3D Pro contains data on all Pokemon.
The Nintendo eShop opened up for business one year ago and has been going well. New 3DS games will be available as downloads as well as physical formats. Download codes can be purchased at retail establishments.
New Super Mario Bros. 2: This game will feature tonds of coins. World 2 will be a desert. The golden Fire Flower will destroy everything, turning it into coins. Coin Rush is a new mode where you must get every coin you can. The mode will be available after defeating a level. It will involve speed-running and Street Pass. It will have a Co-op Mode with the camera focusing on the bro in the lead. Raccoon Mario and Luigi can fly with the P-Meter. Players will also be able to bubble. August 19, 2012
That's a lot of new games that will be coming out this year. I'll certainly be busy playing the Mario titles for the blog (including Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon), as well as Pokemon Black and White 2. I can't wait to play these new games.
