Flipnote Studio 3D Delayed in Europe

Nintendo of Europe announced earlier today that Flipnote Studio 3D for the 3DS, follow up to the original DSiWare title, has been delayed. Here is the release from Nintendo:

Nintendo of Europe regrets to announce that Flipnote Studio 3D, originally due for a European launch on Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS on 1st August, will be delayed. Due to unexpectedly high levels of user activity since the launch of the application in Japan on 24th July, we decided to postpone our European launch until we can deliver the best possible service to users. We apologise for any inconvenience this delay may cause, and will announce a new launch date as soon as possible.

No delay has been announced in any other territories.

With the upcoming release of the new Nintendo 3DS application Flipnote Studio 3D this summer 2013, Nintendo discontinued the Flipnote Hatena community available to users of Flipnote Studio on the Nintendo DSi system on May 31st, 2013. Users can use the Flipnote Studio application on your Nintendo DSi system after Flipnote Hatena has been closed but aren’t able to upload and share flipnote creations on these communities after May 31, 2013.
