A recent Nintendo conference has revealed new information about the upcoming {{bp|Nintendo 3DS}} release. The latest portable console by Nintendo will be released in Japan in 2011, with a American and European release to follow in March. This is around the same time that {{game|Black and White|s}} will make their English-language debut.


Data from a recent Nintendo conference shows new info. This includes information on the Nintendo 3DS's pricing and release date. It is currently set to be priced for 25,000¥, which is equivalent to a price of 300$ in the U.S. It is slated to be released on Feburary 26, 2011 for Japan and March 2011 for America and Europe.
The price for the console has also been announced. In Japan, the 3DS will retail at ¥25,000. This is approximately US$300. The conference also mentioned many upcoming games for the 3DS, but no new Pokémon titles were mentioned.
 
The successor to the {{bp|Nintendo DSi}}, the 3DS is able to produce 3D effects without the need for special glasses. What this means for future Pokémon games remains uncertain, but fans expect any later titles in the {{bp|Generation V|fifth generation}} to make full use of these effects.
