Aussie Nintendo Download Update (29/1) – Exploring your options

Normally when we write these eShop updates there’s a tentpole game or a theme or something we can write about to tie the article all together.

This week’s eShop update is literally has something for everyone, there’s new games, old games, indie games, long games, short games. Some things we’ll note though is the release of Shadow Puppeteer which looks like some fun. There’s also a couple of Shin’en games from years ago that have finally made it, one of them was released in 2013 in Europe and America. You can thank IARC for us getting that.

Final Fantasy fans though, I think this is your week. You’ve got the brilliant Tactics from the Game Boy Advance and the new Final Fantasy Explorers.

It would take a week to go through everything here, so instead I’ll just ask – what are you picking up this week?
