Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata has said it would be “unwholesome” to charge an additional fee for Animal Crossing 3DS DLC.
Whether you agree with that will likely depend on whether you are a gamer or a Nintendo shareholder.
The platform holder has recently strayed further than ever into the premium DLC market with additional digital content for New Super Mario Bros 2, but told investors recently that it does not intend to extend the model to its upcoming Animal Crossing title.
Kotaku reports that Iwata worries “that the power of money could not only impact gameplay” and that having discussed the issue with the AC team has now completely ruled out premium downloads.
And that’s despite the fact that the inherent online connectivity of the title combined with the heavy focus on collecting makes, it could be argued, the game an ideal candidate for the treatment.
Iwata has previously told Kotaku that “Nintendo didn't want gamers to feel ‘cheated or deceived’ by DLC, adding that the paid experience should add to the experience and not detract from it”.

Developer n-Space was hoping to bring a dungeon-crawling audience to the 3DS with its ambitious Heroes of Ruin, released earlier this year on June 26. But that audience never showed up, according to co-founder Dan O'Leary. "We're not satisfied with the sales," he says in a recent interview. "The 3DS attach rate is... challenging at best and it seems that, for all its promise, Heroes of Ruin did not appeal to enough of the installed base."
O'Leary says the team is proud of its work and wouldn't mind returning to the genre, but also that sales likely won't justify a sequel anytime soon. Meanwhile n-Space is still hard at work, putting together the mobile version of Skylanders Giants for Activision, as well as the 3DS version of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D. And O'Leary says the company has had Wii U development kits for a while, so there may be something brewing along that front in the future.

 The digitally distributed versions of retail 3DS software accounted for somewhere between three and ten percent of total sales worldwide, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said in an investor briefing. He noted that this was done "without any advertisements in the mass media," which is sort of like admitting Nintendo didn't try very hard.
Iwata also mentioned US customers were "particularly active" in buying New Super Mario Bros. 2 digitally, more so than European, Australian, or Japanese customers. In Japan, download rates are highest for Brain Age: Concentration Training and Art Academy: Lessons for Everyone, games which lend themselves to repeated short sessions, and thus are nice to have loaded on the 3DS at all times.
Iwata believes that Animal Crossing is particularly well-suited to this kind of play, and accordingly, Nintendo will promote the download version in advertisements in Japan, including the narrated phrase "Download version available, always with you, never lost." The 3DS XL bundle, as well, will include the game pre-loaded on the system.

Pokémon is playing a huge part in Nintendo’s Christmas campaign for 3DS XL.
And it has already boosted the platform this week with latest game Pokémon Black/White 2 charting highly.
But that is just one of five Pokémon games promoted this Christmas which will attract both parents and kids.
“Pokémon is still a huge franchise for us and goes from strength to strength,” Nintendo UK marketing boss Shelly Pearce told MCV. “We have a mix of core and side-titles supported through peak season.”
Pokémon Typing Adventure is one of those. It comes with its own Bluetooth keyboard to encourage kids to learn typing skills. A targeted campaign with kids via print and TV, plus curriculum teaching with schools, is helping raise awareness of the new typing game.
Said Pearce: “This is ideal at Christmas where parents are looking for games that are fun but also educational.”
But Black/White 2 are the centrepiece games. TV ads, an online campaign and promo partnerships are designed to maintain post-launch momentum from last weekend.
A tie-in download game Pokémon Dream Radar launched last week, too. It lets players capture Pokémon and transfer them over to the Black/White 2 retail game.
Across the campaigns, Nintendo is pointing back to its 3DS XL handheld to drive hardware uptake.
Said Pearce: “We are regularly referring back to the new 3DS in the campaign. The important thing for this game is that it looks fantastic on the bigger 3DS XL screen, it’s a great selling point.”

Nintendo has posted a net loss of $350million for the six months ending September 30th in its latest financial results.
Whilst a staggering number, the loss is actually down significantly for the same period last year, in which the console giant reported a loss of $880m.
Net sales of software and hardware were down to $2.5 billion from $2.7 billion in 2011.
Net income and sales also failed to meet expected forecasts set on April 26th earlier this year, with the company’s net loss expected to be cut down to $250 million, a target missed by $100m.
The 3DS sold 5.06m units worldwide by the end of September, whilst Wii hardware sales reached 1.32m for the same period. Lifetime 3DS hardware sales now stand at 22m, with Wii sales at an impressive 97.2m.

Mind Candy is thinking about bringing Moshi Monsters to more gaming formats in the future, following the success of Moshling Zoo on Nintendo DS.
The next Moshi DS game, Moshlings Theme Park, arrives on Friday, October 26th.
Mind Candy's senior marketing manager Andrew Matjaszek told Licensing.biz: "The Nintendo DS is an extremely popular console across our core demographic of fans. Due to the age of our fans (six to 12 years old), we felt that the DS was the perfect platform for us to launch our first Moshi Monsters title.
"As far as mass-market appeal is concerned, other handhelds are still in their infancy. We felt it better to target a console that our fans play and enjoy on a regular basis.
"We've loved taking Moshi on to the Nintendo DS and don't see any reason why we wouldn't look to expand the Moshi Universe even further in the near future. Stay tuned."
