"Since 1996, when Mario appeared in 3D in Super Mario 64, it's always been hard for players to judge how to jump and hit a block floating in a 3D space," Iwata said. "Miyamoto said to me, 'Finally the day has come when we can solve this.'" More details about Super Mario 3DS will be revealed in the coming months.

Now in other 3DS news, Nintendo has rolled out the first system update for the portable device. Tagged as version version 1.1.0-1J, the latest system update includes the following changes:

  • General system stability update
  • Update to SpotPass: expansion of data retrieval for things like the notice list
  • Bug fix for Network functionality: the system had previously been unable to receive data from some hot spots and Nintendo Zones.
  • Addition of Music Live 3D Video: Adds Super Mario Bros. theme featuring Koji Kondo on piano.

Nintendo never commented on pirating existing DS games. Nintendo claimed they beefed up the 3DS security and so far there is no 3DS pirating going on. Unless you know something the rest of us don't? Are you able to point us to 3DS roms? I doubt it.

I am not interesting about new mario ahead to 3DS.. You know why ?? Look at new super mario bros on DS and never got a sequel or anything. Maybe a sequel to Wii but DS should have more sequels and I know that 3DS mario will not have sequel after a brand new mario anyway. What a waste. No thanks.

Maybe I will play it from rent but Nitnendo is not going to get profit from me for I am wise with money and wise to understand how video games work. Ridiculous Nintendo.
