Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon for the Nintendo 3DS won't materialize in the Americas until the first half of 2013, Nintendo revealed today in an update on upcoming releases for handheld systems.

Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask will mark the puzzle-solving professor's first 3DS appearance on October 28.
