Nintendo 3DS update adds save backups, new StreetPass game store
Author: Randy Miller
If the madness of E3 (and the promise of some big titles) has recently pulled you back to Nintendo’s handheld, you might be greeted with a firmware update next time you open up that well-worn 3DS. Aside from improved stability and bug fixes, there’s new save data backup feature which will hold on to save files for your downloaded 3DS titles as well as Virtual Console games. Appearing already in Europe, version 6.0.0-11 also bundles in a new shop for the Mii Plaza, with StreetPass Squad, StreetPass Garden, StreetPass Battle, StreetPass Mansion all priced at 5 euros, or 15 euros for the whole set. No word on yet on when the update will arrive on the other side of the Atlantic, but given past form, we’d expect it to arrive some time this month.

Nintendo sees Mario and Zelda giving Wii U a big boost, 3DS continuing to grow
Author: Alexander McQueen
There’s no question that Nintendo is hurting these days, mostly owing to the lackluster reception for the Wii U. The company’s Scott Moffitt is upbeat, however: he tells CNET that the Wii U should enjoy a 3DS-like sales renaissance this holiday now that games in bigger franchises, like Mario and Zelda, are on the way. Of course, the 3DS also had the advantage of a dramatic price drop — but never you mind that. As for the handheld’s own performance this year? Moffitt claims that the 3DS is the only dedicated console whose sales are still growing, and he expects the system to have its best holiday yet. His positions on the 3DS and Wii U strike us as optimistic when Nintendo is up against two major console launches and the ever-present threat of smartphone gaming, but the gaming giant has defied the odds more than once in its history.

Nintendo 3DS image sharing comes to the US through Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Author: Tech Blogger
Now that Animal Crossing: New Leaf has launched in the US, so too has a Nintendo 3DS feature: public image sharing. American gamers who want to prove their mayoral skills can now snap a screenshot and visit a special website to post their images to Tumblr, Twitter or both. The picture sharing has limited usefulness when New Leaf is the only supporting title in the country, but it still marks a welcome (if tentative) step for Nintendo into a more social world.

Nintendo dismisses E3 importance as it turns to Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube
Author: Brandon Zimmerman
Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime has taken to Facebook to defend his company’s decision not to hold a press conference at E3. Speaking directly to fans, Fils-Aime notes that “change can make people nervous,” and adds that he understands “people are wondering how we can possibly share information about all our games without all the bells and whistles of a press conference.”

The Tetris Printer is a computer program that turns images into 8-bit art. Created by Meat Fighter, the program uploads an image to “print,” then generates the correct colors by playing the game to leave behind specific blocks.
