As the release date approaches, things become more unclear

First it wasn’t, then it was, and now it seems the new Nintendo 3DS eShop will not be launching with the console, at least in Japan. The information was revealed today at a Nintendo Investors Briefing, This information flies in the face of what Nintendo Europe have said, but aligns with with what Nintendo America has hinted at. In other words, no one really knows when the Nintendo 3DS eShop will launch, and everything is a dream.

The opening of the store will mean that the Virtual Handheld games, 3DS Ware, Web Browser and DSiWare Transfers won’t be ready for launch. So if you’re trading in your 3DS, you’re pretty much up that creek.

Nintendo has also revealed you’ll be able to swap your transfers from 3DS to 3DS. Nintendo has also uploaded tiny videos of how the Home menu on the 3DS works as well as the 3DS friends list in action.
