The third game of the Ranger series, titled '''光の軌跡''' ''Locus of Light'' in Japan, and released on March 6, 2010 there, is now to be known to Western audiences as '''{{bp|Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs}}'''. This title seems to draw reference to the {{bp|Ranger Signs}} newly featured in the game, while its initials may be a reference to {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, as their {{bp|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes}} were the last main series Pokémon games released prior to this. The {{bp|villainous teams|villainous team}} introduced in the game, previously known as the Pokémon Nappers, is now known as the {{bp|Pokémon Pinchers}}. Little other information is known at the current point in time; no English boxart has been released nor has the game itself been yet mentioned on Pokémon.com. | The third game of the Ranger series, titled '''光の軌跡''' ''Locus of Light'' in Japan, and released on March 6, 2010 there, is now to be known to Western audiences as '''{{bp|Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs}}'''.

The {{bp|Nintendo 3DS}}, Nintendo's upcoming successor to the {{bp|Nintendo DS}} series, was finally revealed in earnest at the conference, having been revealed as a teaser in March of 2010. The console features several upgrades from the Nintendo DS series, including, for the first time on a Nintendo handheld, a control stick (dubbed the "gyro pad") in addition to the D-pad, as well as a third camera. The 3DS's most touted feature, its 3D effect, takes advantage of this third camera, which is mounted on the outside much like the secondary camera of the Nintendo DSi and DSi XL, to take 3D pictures. Motion-sensing technology, like that implemented in the {{bp|Wii}}'s controller, is also present; this may work in tandem with the inner camera to assist in display of the 3D images displayed. For ease of eyestrain, the 3D effect can be turned down and even off, using a small slider switch on the side of the console. | The {{bp|Nintendo 3DS}}, Nintendo's upcoming successor to the {{bp|Nintendo DS}} series, was finally revealed in earnest at the conference, having been revealed as a teaser in March of 2010.
