* <b>August 26, 2011</b> - Do you recall when we reported early in July about a then-new "Iwata Asks" interview based on ''[[Star Fox 64 3D]]''? Well, back then, the interview was only in Japanese, but as expected it has finally been officially translated, and posted up on other regional websites (except for Australia at the time of this post). Actually, the translations have been around for a while now, but I missed them the first time since due to lack of full attention back then. Sorry about that guys, but better late than never, in case you have not known about them already. Anyway, the interviews are a highly recommended read for true Star Fox enthusiasts, as it reveals some information bits nobody ever knew before. You can find the English translation either [http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/3ds/starfox/0/0 here] or [http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/news/iwata/iwata_asks_starfox_64_44230_44231.html here]. | |||
* <b>August 24, 2011</b> - The annual [http://prime.paxsite.com/ Penny Arcade Expo] (PAX) is returning to Seattle again this week, and Nintendo will be attending. Nintendo will be displaying a number of their most anticipated upcoming titles, including ''[[Star Fox 64 3D]]'', which is not surprising since the game was featured during the Comic-Con event last month. However, in case you are attending PAX, just know that on August 27 there will be a ''Star Fox 64 3D'' tournament between 7pm and 10pm, and Nintendo will be having daily giveaways too. So, if you are attending PAX at that date, have fun! In unrelated news, there had been rumors that Nintendo might announce a revamped Nintendo 3DS design that is to be released in 2012. Gaming rumors tend to turn out true, but keep in mind it is always a good idea never to take any rumor seriously until the information had been officially confirmed. | * <b>August 24, 2011</b> - The annual [http://prime.paxsite.com/ Penny Arcade Expo] (PAX) is returning to Seattle again this week, and Nintendo will be attending.
