Hola! In anticipation for September 29th (when Nintendo reveals the Nintendo 3DS release date and price) I created this countdown image that you can use in your forum signatures etc: You can find the embed code here if you want to share it (or just copy the image source URL above). :D Once we know the release date I'll change the countdown to that date.

Awesome! That's going to be really useful, and I might use it as my blog header.

I've been out of touch with the DS forums lately, we all agree though that the Sept. 29th announcement of a price and release date probably means a North American and Japan release date of fall right?

Coz why announce the date in Sept 2010 if its coming March 2011?

Its probably hitting in Late Oct, or Mid November

That's what I think will happen. Late Oct - mid Nov. And I'm glad everyone likes the countdown. :D

Yeah, I'll be able to change a couple lines of code, and the image will automatically change to a launch countdown. :-)

In general everything seems to come in November if they're able to. Nintendo is no stranger to giving a half cocked launch, IMO DS released with just Mario 64 but castlevania and advance wars were there shortly after and had plenty of good after but started out with virtually nothing. With all the great titles mentioned at E3 I wouldn't mind not having everything at launch as long as I got to start playing with some of it right away, I'd love something like the Metroid demo for DS to come along with this. Maybe they could give us a Star Fox demo?

I always like count downs for good stuff but a count down until another count down seems a little over the top.

Yeah I know, but a few people had requested it, and I like playing around with code. And like I said, this will automatically switch to the launch countdown once the release date is announced. :-)

Nintendo typically launches first in the Asian region, then EU then NA. Hopefully, they will be smarter about this launch than past DS launches and have a world wide launch for the 3DS, instead of region by region.

That's not true. The Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo DS launched in North America before Japan. Nintendo only launches iterations (like the DSi XL) in Japan before other places (and even that's not the case 100% of the time).

I'm more interested in september 18th. :P Besides, this is just the countdown to the countdown, waiting to know how long you'll be waiting and all that.

Well the original DS was announced in January, then in about March they had a press conference and it was released in (splitting the difference) December. So...idk, I hope it comes out later so I can actually get it on release day. :/

Seeing that Nintendo are not completely stupid, a reasonable fiscal date for release would probably be around the beginning of December. Christmas makes people buy stuff madly. Although us people in Europe are probably going to get it around March I guess, albeit not being less mad than our fellow Americans shoppers.
