Nintendo Download Updates (3/7) Let’s go, Super Turbo Art Academy!

Not a bad start to July, with this weeks update! It might be a quiet time of year for game releases in general, but there’s a lot of cool stuff here on Nintendo consoles, at least. Let’s get started!

The big Wii U release this week is Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition, which quietly launched earlier this week. If you haven’t already picked this one up on another platform, do it now! On top of the Metroidvania style platforming, there’s plenty of sly references to older games, including our favourite plumber brothers (hint: Mario and green Mario). Give it a whirl!

The 3DS has also got a few cool games this week, with Chibi-Robo! Let’s Go, Photo! and Pokémon Art Academy smashing their way onto the eShop. Draw Pokémon kinda poorly like me? Let’s improve to ‘oh, I suppose it is a Squirtle, if you squint a bit’ after a bit of practice! And Chibi-Robo will give you an excuse to use those two dots on the outside of your 3DS. That’s right, they’re cameras!

So what are we all grabbing this week? Let us know in haiku in the comments below!
