Aussie Nintendo Download Updates (11/9) 30 Years in the Making
This week’s update on the eShop is kind of a big deal. Actually there isn’t too many deals.. and there’s not too many games but what games there are – we know you want them.
First up, the big one – Super Mario Maker. Certainly cheaper in stores, but the convience of having this one on your system ready to use at moments notice? Tough choice. Not to worry either, you’ll get a nice PDF copy of the art book as well.
3DS owners you’re up this week, there’s Hatsune Miku and there’s Etrian Mystery Dungeon. Two games we know you’ve been waiting for a while for.
Other then that, there’s some games on special – some worth your time, others not. You should check out escapeVektor, that certainly is worth your time.
So where does the spice money flow this week?

Shame there’s no VC releases this week, but that great lineup of retail games makes up for it
“First up, the big one – Super Mario Maker. Certainly cheaper in stores,”
Not really, it’s actually $10 more expensive in most stores. The eShop has it for $69.95. Most stores are selling for $79.95 because of the physical book. A couple are selling it for $64 but that’s not that much of a difference.
You can get the limited edition with the Amiibo for $69, and seeing this Amiibo will likely have a $20 value, that makes the eShop version less appealing.
Been waiting forever for Etrian Mystery Dungeon. Why did it have to be this week haha

I’m only sad cause I was hoping for a Mario VC discount week leading up or during the Mario Maker launch. Oh well, once I’ve got SMM I’ll be lost in that game for a while anyway!
