Nintendo 3DS firmware update included in Super Mario 3D Land
Not the big firmware update with video recording but has friends list fixes
Nintendo has snuck a new firmware version into the Japanese version of Super Mario 3D Land. While its not the huge firmware update thats coming soon with video recording and an improved eShop it does seem to contain a few Friends List updates.
The firmware update is version 2.2.0.4-J, a boost from 2.1.0-4J and the the update contains the following features;
– Join your friend; The ability to join friends already in an online game. Mario Kart 7 is the first title that will use this feature. This is accessed from the friends list.
– The ability to quickly scroll through the friends list with a long press of either the left or right D-Pad or Circle Pad.
– All your online friends will be bunched at the front of the online list so you wont have to go searching through your list to see who is online.
While we suspect that this update will also be coming in the Australian version, were not sure why Nintendo has included this in Super Mario 3D Land if theyre just going to release another update expanding the eShop and 3D Video Recording, but hey its progress.
