It was revealed as part of Nintendo’s 2010 conference that the Love Plus series is set to make the jump into the third dimension. The game, which essentially is a girlfriend simulator, will be back and better than ever as it will use new capabilities of the 3DS like the gyro sensor and StreetPass. They say that this will allow you to feel a deeper connection to a more appealing girlfriend. The girls will now even remember your face.
