The 3DS Has Just Become The Fastest Selling Console In Australian History Nearly 20 years ago, three household names in Nintendo gaming took a shot at drawing Kirby inside the official strategy guide for Kirby’s Adventures. Masahiro Sakurai, the game’s creator (and creator of the Super Smash Bros. series); Shigeru Miyamoto, who really needs no introduction, and Satoru Iwata, who doesn’t either, unless you don’t know who Nintendo’s current CEO is.
Nintendo has yet to release the official hardware specifications for the Wii U, and it’s something Gearbox’s Brian Burleson, senior producer on Aliens: Colonial Marines, won’t discuss directly. But, he said to Eurogamer, the Wii U will get the best-looking version of the game because it has “more modern tech”.
The image here, which popped up on Twitter not long ago but has now — unsurprisingly — vanished from the internet, shows what looks like, at first glance, a tablet controller for Nintendo’s Wii U. Except it’s not quite the same as the promo shots and preview devices we’ve seen. For one thing, it has real-proper analogue thumb sticks, instead of the flat, nub-like ones of the old model.
It reads like fan fiction and the rumour’s original reporter — who uncovered PlayStation All-Stars six months before it was announced — concedes that nothing about it is confirmed. But Retro Studios is said to be working on, or at least to have considered, Star Fox-Metroid Fusion Saga, a mashup of third-person action gameplay with aerial/space combat.
The diagram is a bit goofy-looking, but then, that comes with the patent territory. It’s sufficiently detailed enough that we can make out a guy, Wii Remote in hand, standing over a device that looks suspiciously like a Wii U tablet. He’s also playing golf.

Last winter, Nintendo’s 3D television service “Itsu no Ma ni Terebi” launched in Japan. It featured short two-minute 3D clips that were free and exclusive to the 3DS. Today, Nintendo announced that the service is ending in Japan on June 20. The 3DS, however, will continue intermittent distribution of 3D videos for 3DS owners — a good thing.
