Super Mario 3D Land and Other Hit Retail Titles are Now Available in the eShop

By Thursday evening, sites like Digitally Downloaded has already posted news about the newest content in the Nintendo 3DS eShop. The thing is, my Google Reader is still not picking up any news from Nintendo's official news feed. What did I do? I checked up the eShop as soon as I got and the bus and what I found was a barrage of games Nintendo still hasn't announced officially. This just tells me that they update the eShop first before announcing anything. The announcement came in like several hours later. Probably to avoid people coming to the eShop because of their news only to find out that the new content has bugs? Probably.

Here are the new content at the eShop. Some are not entirely new, but these are big retail titles now available for the officially for the first time. Still haven't got these Nintendo 3DS games? Or perhaps you live in a place where access to retail games are so damn scarce and even expensive? Here's what you can get at the eShop:

Let's start with the retail hits like Super Mario 3D Land, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Star Fox 64 3D, and Mario Kart 7. Hey, these are big titles which pours so much damn money for Nintendo back when the 3DS was struggling. Getting them now at the eShop will mean, ahem, more money for them. But ultimately, as I've said, if you live far away from civilization (lol,) get these titles in the eShop instead.

Next we take a look at Style Savvy: Trendsetters which looks like a young girls' 3DS game to me. This fashion game will be available in the 3DS on October 22, or 23 if you live in Asia.

We also have Sparkle Snapshots 3D which looks a very nice add-on to the Nintendo 3DS camera's graffiti. Will it enables me to save a copy and then upload anywhere? Like in Facebook? I still don't know Apparently, yes. I haven't really check out the game's official page, but it is certainly something I consider. Why? Me and my girlfriend loves taking 3D pictures. And it pains me to say that my girlfriend hates the very small library of graffiti currently available in the system. Sparkle Snapshots 3D can be a very nice extension of the 3DS camera. And guess what, she'll be the one paying so that we can buy it at the eShop. Why should I complain right? :D

There is a new demo available at the eShop. It's for the Nintendo 3DS game called Moshi Monsters Moshlings Theme Park. Heck, I dowloaded the demo and it's awful. I never though Activision will release a game such as this one. I don't even recommend it to kids. Heck, I think it doesn't even deserve to be in the 3DS. It should just be in the iPhone for 99 cents. It's perfect there. (I have no knowledge of it being in the iTunes since I only browse the Apple store for music, never for games.)

Nintendo Video's newest addition is Dinosaur Office: Halloween Spooktacular. I think this is pretty much self explanatory. It's coming on the 25th, 26 if you're in Asia.

Other eShop additions include Reel Fishing: Ocean Challenge, Puzzler World XL, and a classic - Gradius. Looks like this classic game is revamped with 3D effects. Kudos to Konami for bringing this very good game in the eShop.

So there you have it. This week's newest at the Nintendo 3DS eShop. If you haven't check it out, then better do so now.
