November Could Be 3Ds Time in Japan
Post on peripheral manufacturer employee's Twitter hints at release window
Although Nintendo has yet to formally announce a release date for their upcoming 3DS handheld, a post on the Twitter of Takehiro Amano, an former employee of peripheral manufacturer KeysFactory, could hold the answer for the release date of the upcoming portable from the Kyoto-based gaming giant.
Amano tweet was translated and reads:
"On November 20, eleven 3DS products that we designed will go on sale all at once. People who are buying the 3DS, buy it at the same time! There will be more details on our home page."
KeysFactory has confirmed to Kotaku that Amano was an employee of the company but left at the August and that the company has not been informed as of yet of the 3Ds' official date.
Nintendo is choosing to wait until September 29th to make its formal announcement on a release date for the 3DS which may differ from the alleged date Amano has claimed the device will see release in Japan.
A little more than a pinch of salt may need to be taken with this one we think until we hear the word from Nintendo's horse.
