To Whom It May Concern:
Re: Launch of New Portable Game Machine
Nintendo Co., Ltd. (Minami-ward of Kyoto-city, President Satoru Iwata)
will launch "Nintendo 3DS"(temp) during the fiscal year ending March
2011, on which games can be enjoyed with 3D effects without the need
for any special glasses.
"Nintendo 3DS"(temp) is going to be the new portable game machine to
succeed "Nintendo DS series", whose cumulative consolidated sales from
Nintendo amounted to 125million units as of the end of December 2009,
and will include backward compatibility so that the software for
Nintendo DS series, including the ones for Nintendo DSi, can also be
enjoyed.
We are planning to announce additional details at E3 show, which is
scheduled to be held from June 15, 2010 at Los Angeles in the U.S.
