Nintendo 3DS eShop Update:
This week’s Nintendo eShop update brings three original games to the 3DS eShop, along with a bunch of downloadable retail games, and a Virtual Console title.
On the original games front is escapeVektor, a game where Vektor is trapped inside a CPU. You need to help him recover his memories as he travels through the CPU, eventually making his escape. The game has 150 levels across 27 worlds, and four abilities to unlock and upgrade. escapeVektor costs $9.99.
Joining the game are two other eShop titles. The first is PIX3D, a puzzle game where you try to reproduce a piece of pixel art by putting the scattered pixels together. The game has 1,000 levels and costs $3.99.
The other is Riding Stables 3D, which was a retail game in Europe but is a $29.99 download game in the U.S. Riding Stables 3D has you training ranch horses and preparing for a tournament while getting to know the other protagonists in the game and solving mysteries involving illegal practices along the way.
Also available this week is Wario Land 2, originally released for the Game Boy Color in 1999, for $4.99. Joining it is a free demo for 2 Fast 4 Gnomz, the running platformer that recently saw release on the eShop a couple of weeks ago.
Additionally, the following retail games are now available as eShop downloads:
- Mario Tennis Open
