Aussie Nintendo Download Updates (24/12) – Holiday Special

Shall I give you dis-counts?

It’s Christmas! So what am I doing here? Oh, the eShop doesn’t sleep, my friends. Especially not for all the new Wii U and 3DS owners out there!

The Wii U gets the most content this week, as in, it gets content. And boy, Nintendo and Square must have had a few happy drinks over the holidays, with not just Cloud joining the Smash roster, but Super Mario RPG heading on over to the Wii U Virtual Console as well! Strangely enough, it’s joined by the DS port of Super Mario 64. I quite liked the port, with it adding Luigi, Wario and Yoshi as playable characters, but I’m curious to see how it will control!

And it’s not Christmas without a long list of sales! While last week had a monster of a list that nearly killed us, this week still adds a decent chunk more, with a lot of great titles in there. Darksiders II, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and a bunch of Atlus games on the 3DS are my personal stand outs, but still give the whole list a flick through!

We’ll have one more eShop update before the new year, so we’ll see you next week!
