There’s a tiny bit of an arcade theme to the downloads this week. The Virtual Console game on the 3DS was originally based on an arcade classic. The Wii Virtual Console game is an arcade game and the WiiWare version is a remake of an arcade game. The CRUSH3D demo spoils my analogy, though. Damnit! More »
After last weeks terrible performance of no titles for Australia, Nintendo decided that they were awake this week and have decided on not only giving us two Virtual Console titles but also some demos. It’s amazing really. More »
The new year is upon us and the Nintendo download stores have refreshed again this week. Or at least one of them has. This week sees the addition of another Virtual Console title to the 3DS eShop and not much more. More »
It’s the second last week of the year for updates and Nintendo isn’t letting up with the amount of great content hitting the eShop. In the past few weeks we’ve had Freakyforms, Pullbox and the Ambassador Games. Now it’s time for the 3DS to gain a new feature, a great original third party downloadable title and a Virtual Console classic. More »
It’s been the Nintendo 3DS’s time to shine lately. We’ve gotten two Mario titles in the last month, a fresh new firmware update and those pesky Game Boy Advance Ambassador games shouldn’t be too far away. Nintendo is also pumping things up on the download sides of things; last week’s great releases are now followed up by more. We’re not big on quantity this week but both titles are of great quality.

I’m not even kidding this week, we actually have more than one game on a variety of platforms. New and old games too! It’s just like it should be! Let’s take a look; we’ve got a lot to get through. More »
So Nintendo’s finally gotten through most of its early generation Game Boy games now. Most of the colourful fluff of launch games are gone; here comes the good stuff. The first of hopefully a trend of change is a Metroid title. About time, right? There’s also some ‘fun’ on WiiWare if you’re keen, but I imagine you’ll be playing something else this week right?

Kirby is taking the step into the third dimension this week with a 3D Classics title devoted to the pink puffball. It’s not an entirely new 3D game, I’m sure that will come soon enough but for now you’ll have to make do with the NES version done up in 3D. Just be thankful it’s not a vertical shooter, we’ve got enough of those on the 3D Classics range. More »
It’s a portable-only adventure this week with the Wii getting neglected again, 3DS and DSi owners though get their pick of a couple titles, one old and one new. More »
Nintendo has dubbed this week’s update as Halloween themed. However, I still think last week was scarier when we got absolutely no games on the eShop. Why? This is a brand new system, brand new online store and it’s not doing to well. So what do you do? You ignore it for a week and let it get forgotten. That’s not the way to go about things and to think if Nintendo have this little content on the 3DS this early, never mind the Wii and DSi continuing to get ignored. More »
