Mario Kart 7 update data is now available
Nintendo has finally made available WORLDWIDE the update data for Mario Kart 7. This update data corrects several glitches in the game; mainly in the Online Multiplayer mode. The update data can only be downloaded from the Nintendo 3DS eshop AFTER you perform the latest system update that was made available yesterday.
Once you’ve performed the update, go the Nintendo 3DS eshop and you should see the update right away. Here’s the information provided by Nintendo regarding the update data:
“This is an update for the Mario Kart 7 game. This download does not contain the full version of the title. In order to use this udate, you must have the full version of Mario Kart 7, which is sold separately.
Downloading this update will resolver the shortcut exploits in the following online multiplayer mode courses:
- Wuhu Loop
- Maka Wuhu
- Bowser Castle 1
Starting 5/16/12, this update will be required for online multiplayer mode. You can still play single-player or local multiplayer without installing the update.
Once the update is complete, the update will be installed automatically. The update will be visible under System Settings > Data Management > Nintendo 3DS > Add-On Content. There will be no gift icon displayed on the HOME Menu after the download is complete. When Mario Kart 7 is launched, “Ver. 1.1″ will appear above the Online Multiplayer icon if the update was successful. Deleting the update will require you to download it again to play multiplayer online.
Make sure you download the update and tell us once you have.

Kid Icarus: Uprising will NOT have a sequel
Nope, you’re not having a nightmare! Kid Icarus: Uprising creator Masahiro Sakurai has revealed that he does not have plans to create a sequel to the game. Mr. Sakurai says he managed to fit everything he pretty much wanted into Kid Icarus: Uprising and he believes that the novelty of the franchise would soon wear off. He did say that someone else besides him may make another Kid Icarus game, but it’s not going to happen anytime soon. Here’s the full quote:
“If by ‘lasting universe’ you mean to ask if there’s a sequel, the answer is no.” Sakurai went on to explain that the reason is “because we pushed a lot into the game in order to let people have this short yet deep experience, but the novelty of that would likely grow thin in the next game. For now, my thought is that perhaps we’ll see someone else besides me make another Kid Icarus in another 25 years.”
Do you think the novelty of the franchise would wear off if Kid Icarus: Uprising got a sequel? Let us know in the comments.

Animal Crossing 3DS will be richer than previous games of the franchise
Nintendo’s global president, Mr. Satoru Iwata believes that Animal Crossing 3DS will take full advantage of the Nintendo 3DS’ unique capabilities to deliver a much richer experience than those found in previous Animal Crossing titles. Here’s the full quote from Mr. Iwata:
“When the company can finalize the development of the software which takes full advantage of these unique functions, for example, if we can do so with the new Animal Crossing for the Nintendo 3DS, our consumers will be able to feel and realise that the new Animal Crossing is not only a richer version of its predecessors but also how positively such functions can affect their play experiences.”
The game is currently scheduled for a Fall release in Japan, but let’s cross our fingers so we’re given a Western release date at the E3 next month.
