Nintendo hosted another Nintendo Direct session today. The Japanese and European (which was just the Japanese one but subbed) have been shown. Quite a few details were confirmed (the article details them), but here are the big ones:

- Kid Icarus: Uprising online multiplayer detailed, as was StreetPass and SpotPass functionality.
- Mario Tennis Open confirmed for Japanese release on 24th May; Europe on 25th May.
- Fire Emblem: Awakening confirmed for EU release.
- Banpresto, Namco Bandai, Sega and Capcom working on a mysterious 3DS game!

The American Nintendo Direct will be happening later today.
 
Yeah, all three have happened now. I missed ours because of work, which annoyed me. Fire Emblem being confirmed for EU was the best piece of news to come from that. I have to say. Huge fan of the series.

What has got me thinking, and i expect it will do for a good time is, Banpresto(aka, those guys that make the Super Robot Taisen series), Namco-Bandai, Sega AND Capcom are making a game together? Now that could be the greatest thing ever, or the worst combination. I can see it working so well if they go for some kind of SRT mish-mash, but then i could see it spiral down to hell if capcom suggest cutting content for DLC cash. Ahhh, i need to see where this goes.

Both Fatal Frame games are to be released in Europe, too. Good news (even if one is a port. No matter - Crimson Butterfly was excellent. Mostly.)

I knew Crimson Butterfly was set for here, but by the other one, do you mean the one set for 3DS, or the one that went onto Wii a couple years back but we never heard of again?

Ah, of course. Yes, the 3DS one. Sadly it seems 4 will never be released over here.
