"Mr. Iwata talks Mario Kart 7 online, connecting with friends to race via the Nintendo #3DS friend list." "Nintendo #3DS Nov. system update will also add more content to StreetPass Mii Plaza." " Mr. Iwata announces a Nintendo #3DS system update in Nov. that will add 3D video capture to Nintendo #3DS" From there official twitter.ShuichiChamp24Amazing, the features we wish we had are finally happening. Since this is happening with MK7, I'm assuming it'll happen with many other games that are on its way out as well. Proud Nintendo Ambassador~!
They said there would be more updates and 3D recording before the end of the year during E3, so this isn't a surprise to me. It's nice that we know which month they plan to release the update instead of just being left to guess.
And the news about Mario Kart 7's Online is great, I just hope they improved the ranking system.
They're also going to improve the e-Shop with this update. (Source)
3DS keeps getting better and better. Still loving mine. Can't wait for all the new games and would love to see a "demo" section added to the eshop.
Always happy with meaningful firmware updates. I think the 3D video thing would be cool to play around with, but with those horrible cameras the quality probably isn't too good. It's just going to end up being a really grainy 3D standard def video.
Looks like Ninty is making a genuine effort to turn things around.

True. *nods*

software sales would greatly increase if 3DS owners could try out the games first, so they got nothing to lose.
Well, an update for the e-shop. Any comfirmation on what it is? If not then I bet it's an update to be able to play demos.

If Ninty does that, I'll eat them! :D

Yeah well when your plane is going down you don't just let go of the controls and, "alright guys, where's those little bottles of booze?"
Imagine if the 3DS was as good as it is now at launch... I think there'd be a lot less naysayers. Now, it is getting even better.
Sweet! I am deffinately going to get Mario kart 7! And I cant wait to have the 3DS video taking feature. That way I can make blogs and wont have to get myself a camera :P
Might as well get one now before the holidays, imagine the line ups on Black Friday.

demos were confirmed at e3 for retail and 3dsware gamesGlad they're finally adding features that should have been there at launch. :P At least the E-Shop didn't take this long.DJ_Laethat's Nintendo for ya
That all fine and dandy but I'm still wishing for a messaging system with online friends. At least the MK7 online feature is a step forward.
I don't have a 3DS yet, but I planned on getting on sometime in the future.
This is just increasing my chances of getting one even more. Good job Nintendo!
Lach0121
yeah same with me
For the love of GOD can we have a ****ing chat feature? Nintendo, understand that ONLINE GAMING needs a form of confirmation... *sigh*JustPlainLucas
Yes please.

agreedFor the love of GOD can we have a ****ing chat feature? Nintendo, understand that ONLINE GAMING needs a form of confirmation... *sigh*JustPlainLucasI'd love to send messages across games. Written ones will do just fine for the system, I don't need cross game voice chat, but being able to send a message to a 3DS friend and they can receive it while online or via spotpass and have a notification for it, would be great. I really hope that comes soon frankly and am sadden it's not here yet. However, voice chat in games could be implemented already, if developers worked on putting it in. Metroid Prime Hunters was the only game I can remember (along with Pokemon) that have put the functionality into the games. Pokemon at least let you do it during battles, but... voice chat in games is likely already possible since the DS could do it, it just hasn't been put in any game though.
