  Here's the official website with a video of Keiji Inafune speaking about it in Japanese...Here's a blog post talking about the announcement and the coming news. New York City Comic Con will have more news. It's on October 8. Next Friday not this Friday. Here's the Comic Con Website
Congratulations everyone! GENERAL 3DS INFO: Even though you all love DASH buying a whole new system for one game may be tough. We'll compile info on the 3DS platform to help the stragglers make their decisions. The 3DS will be release February 26, 2011 for 25,000 Yen, about $300. March is the release window for the rest of the world but a more specific date or price has not been announced. There are about 70 games announced. No word yet about which will launch with the system or not. Megaman Legends 3 will likely not be a launch title because we have seen very little of the game and Keiji Inafune mentioned he wants to take his time with it. There's going to be a hand held version of the Virtual Console for the 3DS. This will allow you to buy and download classic Gameboy, Gameboy Color, and possibly Gameboy Advance games. There's no details on which games will be available but they'll likely be releasing a few games a week like the Wii VC. The 3DS has an analog nub and all the buttons of the old DS(including the touch screen). It will be backwards compatible with the old DS games. There's three cameras: one on top of the screen to take pictures of the user, and two on the outside of the flap so you can take 3D photographs of an environment. The 3DS has Wi-Fi and an always-on passive mode which will trade info with other 3DS users you may walk by. The 3D technology does not require glasses to work. The system has a slider on the right of the screen so you can regulate the 3D effect and find a level your comfortable with. Nintendo has entered into licensing deals with movie companies so that you could rent and buy films and view them in 3D .  That's about it for now. If there's more info that's related, post it in the thread. |

I had to come back and celebrate with you guys; besides making it nearly impossible for me to focus on the test I should be studying for, this has made me really really want the 3DS, where as earlier I wasn't even considering it. But yeah, finally the good news. It's hard to be excited enough.  |

YAY! Success is OURS!!
HOLD IT! If it's for Nintendo 3DS, can those that have just a normal DS or DS Lite still get the game?

Holy crap, it's Aimman. Hi Aimman. VolnuttChan To the best of my knowledge, no. 3DS isn't just another spin-off of the DS; it's a whole new system. I think.EDIT: Well, I guess you don't need me to tell you, too. Hah. I'm am at a total loss for words, which I'm going to chalk up to the lack of sleep. But wow. Just wow. Good night, Legends Station. |

Nope you'll definitely need the new 3DS to play this.
And I waited a very long time to make the thread so it's not like I'm the quickest thread in the west or something.
Going to bed now. I can't pull myself away, though.

Going to bed now. I can't pull myself away, though. I know what you mean. It's 3:00 AM and I need to go to bed now, but I can't bring myself to go to bed, and I don't know if I could sleep, anyway. I'm so excited! I want to hug everyone in the world! Especially Keiji Inafune! |

I'd like to get to bed now too, but I'm not sure if sleep is possible for me right now. Regardless, I already promised myself long ago that I will have to walk around all day tomorrow with the stupidest possible grin on my face. There's nothing I can do. I promised. So I guess I should try to get some sleep anyway because a stupid grin and sleep deprivation zombie mannerisms make for a weird combination.

This is me.I had to come back and celebrate with you guys; besides making it nearly impossible for me to focus on the test I should be studying for, this has made me really really want the 3DS, where as earlier I wasn't even considering it. But yeah, finally the good news. It's hard to be excited enough. Woah, long time no see.  I have two tests tomorrow (one of which I desperately need to study for) and a sure-to-be-painful dental appointment, and I couldn't be happier. YAY! Success is OURS!! HOLD IT! If it's for Nintendo 3DS, can those that have just a normal DS or DS Lite still get the game? Probably not. The 3DS is a significant upgrade. Much more so than the DSi was. EDIT: Ninja'd. So many times... :17:

I told you guys so many times I'd get any system that has Mega Man Legends 3 on it. Now I find out it's not only for a system I want, but fans are helping make it. I love you guys. I want to hug everyone in the world.
