Nintendo's catch-'em-all series Pokémon is finally making the jump from the DS generation of hardware to the not-quite-so-shiny-and-new-anymore Nintendo 3DS, president Satoru Iwata announced during today's Nintendo Direct presentation. Pokémon X and Pokémon Y boast a new story, new Pokémon to poach, and new camera perspectives.
Developer Game Freak is best known for their work on the Pokemon games. In fact, that's pretty much all they ever do. But their interesting music platforming experiment, HarmoKnight, is coming soon to the US. Not only is it the studio's first 3DS game, it's also their first new IP since 2005's Drill Dozer.
Little else is known about the US release of the game, but it should hit the 3DS eShop sooner than later. As Siliconera points out, the game will hit Europe in March. A US release is likely to be close by.

"Sold. I didn't get black 2 because I wanted a full 3d pokemon so I'm pretty pumped for this one."
