In terms of 1st party titles; Kid Icarus, Star Fox 64, Paper Mario, Mario Kart and Super Mario 3DS are all supposedly out sometime this year. Nintendo's E3 event on June 7 should answer that question more fully though (at least I hope so).

Cooking Mama 4 is on the way.
| Quote: | We’ve known that a Cooking Mama game was on its way, but now Majesco Entertainment has confirmed that Cooking Mama 4: Kitchen Magic will be arriving on the 3DS this fall. There are “more than 200 unique touch screen mini-games” and also support for the motion controls that allow you to “crack eggs, flip pans, balance plates and much more” by simply moving your 3DS.

NA's box seems a lot shinier and more gold than ours :/
Though I think Europe has the pick of the bunch.

Our box art will probably be exactly the same as America's if the designs are.

^I certainly hope so 
EBGames has an exclusive pre-order special edition:
You get an Ocarina and two song sheets. I myself wont be getting this, but those that have always wanted an ocarina, this is there best opportunity.

That collectors edition looks pretty unappealing, unless you collect stuff like that just for the sake of it and not because it's cool.

I don't like how those US boxes have "Playable in 2D and 3D mode. 3D mode for ages 7+. See back" crap on them. Really ruins the look of the boxart...
EDIT: (doing as Theory says)
New trailer for Ocarina of Time!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0CZDt8-LXg&feature=player_embedded
Love how they can remaster the audio for a trailer, yet can't be bothered remastering for a remake of one of the greatest games of all time...

The Ocarina is a nice touch and I'd almost consider picking it up from EB if JB hadn't already undercut the price by $14. I just can't see myself getting $14 worth of entertainment from, what is essentially, a plastic whistle.

They're both plastic, but the EB Games one is much bigger and looks heaps different. There's a video on the EB Games Facebook showing it off.

I love the comparison in tone between the two.
Europe is all : Magical adventure with my fairy through a fairy tale countryside
America is all : CHECK OUT MY FUCKIN SWORD ON MY WARHORSE MOTHER FUCKERS!
Don't we usually end up with europes designs though?

^ For Zelda on DS, we got Phantom Hourglass with US art, and Spirit Tracks with UK art.
The promo stuff we are getting at work has all been displaying the US art for Ocarina of Time so far.

Went in to pre order the Ocarina Edition just before. The guy said they had 19 preorders for it through out the day. Probably worth getting in early if your interested in it, it's most likely going to sell out.
I almost never get anything from EB Games, though considering the Ocarina edition is an exclusive to them, and the fact it comes with a bonus preorder poster makes it worth the extra dollars in my eyes.

I picked it up today at JB. $59.
Looks pretty but not mindblowing. This is my first DOA game so I guess I'm in for a treat with this kind of "Best Of" package.

I think we can pretty safely say that we'll be getting the U.S box art for Zelda. Which is bad, because I actually like the European one better. On the other hand, I'm importing a U.S copy for my 3DS, so....damn.

Anyone a bit sad they didn't port this to the Wii? I'm hoping they port it to the Cafe in a few years time. |
It's on VC and Gamecube on the Wii.
