Yup just a couple of months before launch Nintendo is planning a public 3DS event.

Nintendo announced today that it will be holding a public 3DS demo event early next year. The event will be held on January 8, 9 and 10 (a three day weekend) at the Makuhari Messe just outside Tokyo (this is the same location as the Tokyo Game Show and last month's Nintendo Conference press event). Further details, and presumably a name for the event, will be announced later.

No word for NA or Europe.

MOOOOOOOOOOORE games!!!

very nice

Wow this sounds like SpaceWorld but for 3DS exclusively. Well at least thats what I'm hoping it is. Judging by the dates I'm guessing Nintendo will announce the final launch line-up as well as reveal another dozen or so third party titles in developement and release dates for many of the other games launching in the launch window.

I wanna see Sonic 3DSamong other games.. Man I'm excited. I hope they don't wait till January to provide retailers with SKU's. I wanna preorder my 3DS now but EBGames keeps saying we are waiting for the SKU's and initial shipment numbers from Nintendo.

Dang I'm so excited!

But they did one at september 29. And nothing new about WIi :(

I want a real trailer for Skyward Sword...

That event was only for the press, this one is open to public in general.

D: Oh!

Thanks. This will let us know how much will sell the 3DS.

I wonder if MH3D will be announced, it's pretty much the only gap in a kick arse 3rd party line up

That is what I'm waiting for.

Ooh, January 8th, it must be celebrating the birthdays of David Bowie, Elvis Presley, Robbie Krieger, and Stephen Hawking.  Hell yeah.
