Nintendo announced today that the long awaited e-Shop and Internet Browser firmware update for the 3DS will be released on June 7 in Japan and the evening of June 6 in America. The update had been previously announced for the end of May.

Although Nintendo did not share details on what exactly will be included in the update, the company's notice today specifically mentioned the e-Shop and Internet Browser, two areas that had been previously promised.

The e-Shop is expected to give players access to downloadable "3DS Ware" games and Virtual Console titles. An exact lineup for this has yet to be announced, but Capcom has said that a paid Mega Man Legends 3 demo will be among the launch titles.
