When the Nintendo 3DS was released in North America, Tecmo Koei released one title for it from their Warriors game line-up. It wasn’t a Dynasty Warriors title however, it was actually Samurai Warriors. It didn’t take long however for Tecmo Koei to announce that they will be bringing their bread and butter franchise to the 3D handheld.

During Nintendo’s 3DS Conference 2011, Tecmo Koei announced that they are currently working on Dynasty Warriors Vs. and it will be released next year in 2012 in Japan. The game is being developed by Omega Force and will have four player competitive play.

Nintendo’s big conference shown us quite a few new titles, but the previously announced Animal Crossing was one that many might have looked over. This latest title in the franchise will be landing on the 3DS sometime in 2012, and will also feature many returning faces from past installments as neighbors.

The clip shown was on the short side, but one thing that was confirmed was that this title will have the same sphere-like perspective on the world that we seen in Wild World and City Folk. Aside from the new addition of swimming, we still have quite a cloak of mystery surrounding the interactivity and online functions for the 3DS version of Animal Crossing, but if one thing is for certain, this returning sim franchise will be making quite a splash on the handheld next year.

*UPDATE*

Thanks to some translating by Nintendo, we have now learned that houses in Animal Crossing 3DS will be fully customizable, both inside and out. Streetpass functions have also been confirmed via Nintendo’s twitter that will let players share houses.

When it was announced earlier this year, Nintendo said that Kid Icarus: Uprising would be released sometime this year. Unfortunately that won’t happen anymore because during the 3DS Conference 2011 that Nintendo held earlier today, they announced that the game had been pushed back into the early months of 2012.

Despite the game’s delay, Nintendo is going to promote the game by hiring plenty of anime movies that players can watch on their Nintendo 3DS. The studios involved are Production I.G., Studio 4C and Shaft and the videos will be available all over the world. Although the delay is a bit depressing to see for those eager to see Kid Icarus again in his own video game, whenever a game is delayed for extra polish is always a good thing.

Monster Hunter 4 being developed for Nintendo 3DS

The Monster Hunter series is a huge series all around the world, not only is it popular here in North America, but it is extremely popular in Japan. So it only makes sense that during the Pre-Tokyo Game Show event held today, Satoru Iwata announced that there is a Monster Hunter 4 game being developed exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS at the moment.

Unfortunately no details besides the game’s announcement was made at this time. There was some gameplay footage shown off which showed the player’s character being chased by a monster through many obstacles and dodging attacks. Perhaps more news will be revealed in the next few days during the actual event or at least in the coming months. Still it is an interesting move for Capcom to make a Monster Hunter title exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS as many were expecting a PS Vita announcement related to the series during Tokyo Game Show.

Paper Mario to be released on the 3DS next year

While it may have been known that there was a Paper Mario title in development for the 3DS, no one actually knew when they should be expecting this interesting title. Well, that release window was just narrowed down until next year at some time for Japan at least, as during a Pre-Tokyo Game Show held specifically for Nintendo 3DS games they announced the 2012 release of the game.

Along with a little bit of gameplay footage not much else was revealed for the title. Though it does appear to follow the first Paper Mario on the Gamecube title closer than the sequel which was released a couple of years ago on the Wii. Which would you prefer?
