End of exchange. We moved on to a new topic. So, there you have it, Kotaku readers. Or donāt, as it were.
You know, Iād long given up asking if this cherished 2006 Japanese Game Boy Advance role-playing game was ever going to make it to the States, but Nintendo did basically bring it up. Barring a late-show surprise, it seems they may still be in nothing-to-announce mode.
Nintendo does have a roundtable scheduled at the end of E3 today for an unannounced 3DS game. It seems unlikely itās be for Mother 3. Some of us on staff are speculating Metroid, but, you know, try not to get your hopes up. Set your expectations low.
