We’ve known this was coming for a little while now but now the date is official! An Animal Crossing 3DS focused Nintendo Direct for Japan is coming October 5th at 8PM JST. Of course, this will all be in Japanese so keep that mind. Somehow I doubt anyone will really care though!
After three Mini Nintendo Directs in the past week focusing on New Super Mario Bros. 2 we’ve got a full featured Nintendo Direct coming in from Europe! It will be focused on European 3DS content and airs at 7PM BST on October 4th. For other time zones, click here.

Incase you were curious, Nintendo of America has confirmed to IGN that they will be not be hosting a corresponding Nintendo Direct tonight. That basically means don’t expect any details for North America tonight such as a release date. We’ll probably get a Japanese release date though.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is what you’ve been waiting for since June. Nintendo has just announced an upcoming Nintendo Direct event at 8PM (Japan Time) on August 29th (Wednesday). At this time no regional events (America/Europe) have been announced however this may change soon.
It should be noted that Nintendo has said to expect no Wii U information so this event should be 3DS focused! Stay tuned as usual on this blog for all the latest news.
I got some sad news here folks. Animal Crossing 3DS has been confirmed for Early 2013 in Europe. Based on this and the lack of the game being mentioned on the American Nintendo Direct we can assume the same for North America. That last bit however is not confirmed. Stay tuned.
