OK, let's get the boring stuff out of the way first.

 

Big New Releases This Week

Red Steel 2 (Wii)

Cave Story (WiiWare)

Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey (DS)

Just Cause 2 (360/PS3/PC)

DSiXL (the monster sized DSi)

 

I'm planning on playing through the top three games, and Johnny and Christian have both been playing the Just Cause 2 demo extensively, so stay tuned for some reviews in the future.

OK, but holy shit.

Remember when I said that whatever Nintendo was working on, it would be something that their competitors don't have yet? Well, that something has arrived in the form of the most unassuming PDF document ever. Nintendo of Japan announced the tentatively titled "3DS," which is the true successor to the current DS and includes motion tracking and 3D screens that don't require the use of those kooky 3D glasses. While I'm not entirely sold on the idea of 3D if it includes glasses, without them, I think it could totally rule. There's a video floating around on the interwebz of what said 3D could look like, though I'm more inclined to think that the 3DS is going to have 3D images that pop out rather than inwards. Also, it's supposed to be about as powerful as a Gamecube. I so cannot wait to play some WaveRace on my 3DS.
