Fire Emblem 3DS -- which was given an official Japanese name of "Fire Emblem: Kakuse" and a Japanese release date of April 19, 2012. This will be an all-new entry in the on-going Fire Emblem franchise and will support two-player co-op play for the first time in series history -- some footage was shown off of the game's new two-on-one battle scenes.
Interestingly, though, President Iwata did not address a story that Japanese press broke about a day ago -- that this Fire Emblem will be the first first-party Nintendo game to support paid DLC. If it's true, it would make sense -- the Fire Emblem games' storylines are naturally separated into distinct chapters, and so selling additional side stories after the main plot is finished seems reasonable. But we'll apparently still have to wait a while to see if Nintendo is going to confirm that this is actually happening.

I hope it comes state side.
