Aussie Nintendo Download Updates (1/9) – A Tale of Two Metroids

Welcome back to the weekly eShop goodies list! We’ve got an alright list of games and sales this week, so let’s just jump right in.

The Wii U is the quiet one this week, but we are getting Axiom Verge with an introductory price! Alongside that, we have Tetraminos, and also a handful of sales.

The Nintendo 3DS gets Federation Force, the Metroid Prime spin off that’s got everyone talking. Don’t forget to join the Vooks Discord channel if you want to group up for co-op!
