The man specifically said they have "no plans" to release it out of Japan.

I know a lot of you are really excited and I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but as I am likely one of the few here who speak, I felt I should get it out on the table.

You said it's "only" being released in Japan. That implies it's not coming anywhere else, ever.

You should change the topic title to better reflect the reality.

"Iwata stated that there are currently no plans to release the new 3DS outside of Japan".

Um, it's a true statement. It is only, as far as is known right now, being released in Japan. Until it is known to be released anywhere else, that will always be a fact.

I'll bet it'll come out here a year after the Japanese release. Iwata mention a release date in there? Didn't catch what he said...
Yeah it's about a month after the release of Smash (in Japan).

I don't think this merited its own thread, this should probably be merged with the one already made.

@N3ON could you maybe merge them for us? Thank you.

And by making a thread you're overreacting. Numerous Nintendo projects are slated to not be released outside of Japan. Then its considered and shipped to our shores.

I'm not worried at all.

That still doesn't change the fact that the topic title is giving people the impression that it's never going to happen. To be quite frank, anyone with basic knowledge of the US gaming market will be able to see this will come out outside of Japan, it's probably more warranted in the US than Japan.

Plus, I can think of many games and products that get this "no plans to release outside of X country" and they always get released in the end.

It may take a year, but this will come outside of Japan, there just aren't any concrete plans for it. This is par for the course stuff, not a special case of Nintendo never releasing what is probably the biggest upgrade to any of their handhelds that they've ever done. If they released the DSi worldwide, they sure as hell will release this too.

Brilliant I stayed up all night for this presentation, and the only redeeming factor on it is Japan only.

That doesn't change that the new 3DS is only being released in Japan, very soon in fact.
It changes what your thread and OP are about.

You need to change your thread title. Its misleading. Your thread is stating its only for Japan, and by being a title readers will think that's the end of it. If you want your thread to be helpful and informative, I'd recommend doing that.

I'm done talking about it. I'm not arguing with you.

No, it's Europe and Japan.

Just because it's coming out one place first, doesn't mean it's not coming out in another.

It has a tentative release for Europe. It's coming out in Europe (and I'm sure the US will follow soon).

This is like saying Smash 3DS is a Japan exclusive game because it comes to Japan first.

There's no argument, because you can't change fact.

I'm not going to change the thread title because you're trying to whinge over semantics. It's only being released in Japan when it deploys. I didn't say it will only be in Japan forever.

It literally will be, for a little under a month.

But that does not mean it isn't planned to release elsewhere. It's just a timed regional exclusive, only because of manufacturing and localisation limits. Again, par for the course.

Nintendo has told Eurogamer that the new 3DS and 3DS XL designs will not reach Europe until 2015.
Nintendo has directly told Eurogamer that it plans to release it in Europe in the future. A European release is confirmed. So you're topic title is spreading misinformation. Swallow your pride and change it (because you seem to be hanging onto this claim for no other reason. You're going against facts and logic here).

For christs sake mate, I was only telling you what he said. He literally said, we have no plans to release it outside of Japan. Don't get your panties all twisted and shoot the messenger.

That is literally everything it changes. Your semantics about it being only in Japan for a little while is just that- semantics. Japan often gets things first. You're arguing saying "Smash Bros 3DS is only releasing in Japan" because they're getting the game first. That's exactly what you're argument is saying and it's asinine

When a messenger is intentionally resisting to spread correct information for no logical reason, he should probably be shot.

And I'm not getting my panties in a twist, you are. All we are asking you to do is change a measly topic title. Are you THAT against being corrected (by Nintendo themselves, not necessarily us - we're just quoting the fact Nintendo told Eurogamer it's coming in 2015) that you can't do that?

It was not incorrect information. The dude at the white podium said it. Word for word.

The fact they told Eurogamer is great, but it doesn't change what he said.

What I have to say about is actually irrelevant because you're acting like this is based on my opinion.

All I did was relay what he said, and because you feel offended at the immediate distaste of the news you jump in to defense mode like I'm the one who said it.

it doesn't change what he said, but it completely changes the situation. by not changing the title, you are still, effectively, lying.

it's confirmed to be coming out outside of japan, so the fact that it's initial october release is only in Japan is now, quite frankly, irrelevant to everyone.

Are you serious in that you can't comprehend what I'm saying?

Anything stated afterwards does not change the reality of what he said in the moment he said it. That's all I parroted. Nothing else taken in to account.

Everybody calm the bloody hell down. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. Zipzo is stating what was said.



Just for the record, she's no longer a moderator.
Is it not possible that what Iwata said was misinterpreted?

And it kinda does matter. The topic title is misinformation, or at the very least, outdated, thanks to Eurogamer's article. The intention of the topic was clearly to update us all with factual news on the situation. And it's refusing to update with the facts.

The topic title does not reflect that either. It literally just says that it's only coming out in Japan. Doesn't say anything about who said it.

Great. You recognize that the moment has passed and information has changed.

Now just change the thread title to reflect that.

PERFECTION. I was fearing we would have to wait for 2015 like europe but we're actually getting it before even japan.

Just to be sure... We are talking about the game itself right?

I'm starting to think we're talking about the Smash Bros 3DS XL

Uh...........

No. That isn't what we're talking about at all. Did you confuse brand new 3DS hardware announced less than 2 hours ago with a game that all of us already know the release date of?

If it is confirmed for Europe in 2015 then it changes everything and mostly likely means we will get it around the same time.
