How comes Cave Story is on this list unless it’s already out in Japan?
Cave Story is on eshop, but the old version (DSiWare)…
Surprises me so many people would buy it on eshop though, considering the 3ds version is coming out so soon. That’s why i’m holding off still.
Well, it makes perfect sense why people buy it. Because it’s the original version, which won’t be in the 3D remake.
I bought it because its 30 cheaper than it will be when the 3ds version is released… why pay more to see a 2d sidescroller in 3d? Seems kinda redundant since its the same game plus maybe a few extras lol
and it was the Staff Pick of the Week
@silent The 3D version has 102851 times better graphics.
I plan on buying both to support the developer. He spent years making that game by himself, and I played part of the free PC version, so I’d like to give back.
I would rather pay 10 bucks for the download instead of 40 for the remastered version.
Sorta like Ocarina then… I didn’t think so.
Not that surprising!
Link’s Awakening FTW!
Well… Theres no suprises at the top of that list…
The bestsellers are in all countries different.
A shame Cave Story isn’t available in Europe considering it’s selling so well. It’s a damn good game, best on the eShop by far.
But glad to see Shantae getting some love.
I would give really like to give shantae some love, but not at that price.
Too expensive, what are you talking about? It’s $12 and has as much much content as your average DS cartridge game.
It’s a bargain!
Perhaps, But I really didnt buy my 3DS to play DS or even DSiWare games. Ill pay $12 for some proper 3D content.
Haha good luck bro.. all the proper 3D content i’ve seen is over $60 though
What games are over $60?! They’re all $40 (or $45 when EB games tries to rip you off)!
Well here in NSW it’s around $60.. and that’s when EB games is being nice
Scratch that.. the whole of Australia it’s like that..
hence why most people i know buy games from America, with our dollar being higher and their prices being so low even with shipping you can save around $20
@lizzie Not everybody is from the states…
@mr.catz HOW DARE YOU CALL ME AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!! Us Canadians are nothing like them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol my apologies :)
@Lizzie
Oh my god, if you have bursted that out in real life, you would have terrified everyone around you… I’m just glad you didn’t put a 1 after your exclamation points. That would have been an even more Troll-ish move. XD
Waaaah! I want Gameboy Color Pokemon games, already!!! Please~?!
^this
Thought I was the only one, really want to play pokemon crystal on virtual console! Dying for it! :)
no gameboy ORIGINAL pokemon games. Red, Blue, Yellow (Although yellow was kind of gameboy color)
Mee too!! I hope if they do it supports wireless multiplayer for linking.
YESS ME WANT POKEMON SILVER!!
Screw that I want my GBpocket days back. My older brick boy just died yesterday, my childhood took a hit ;_;
@Steven, you’re amazing! I completely forgot that could be a possibility!
£10.80 for Shantae takes the piss.
really worth it though
I might forgive the prices except for the fact you have to add £20 to your account just to buy a £10.80 game. THAT takes the piss.
but then you can buy mighty flip champs with the left over money and get a bonus in shantae when you talk to the npc lady :D
اين برنامج Flipnote Studio
Where the Flipnote Studio
انا لا اعرف الانجليزية
I do not know English
Where the Flipnote Studio
I do not know English
flip note studio is NOT available for the 3ds. but nintendo is making a new one exclusive to the 3ds :)
My Favorite is Zelda LA DX!!!!
Love “Link’s Awakening”. Wish they’d get Metroid II, Super Mario Land 2, and the Wario Land games as well. Not many liked it, but I’d download “Jurassic Park” if that was ever on Virtual Console release. Very catchy 8-bit music, but I’d bet the game would be worth $2.99 USD but Universal try to inflate it to $4.99+ USD. XD
TLoZ LA WOOOOOT 2ND!!!!
Yo…RE:M3D case is going for $91 on ebay atm. Sooooo glad I got mine! It’s arriving on the day of my birthday: June 29th. Happy BIrthday me! Hah ha!
ha my birthday’s the same day
is this the american list? or is it global
What? No Pokedex 3D???
Excitebike is probably up there since it being free is just an limited offer until July 7th, Pokédex3D is probably not up there because it will allways be free :)
Because Pokedex 3D sucks. Wait–do you like it? I find it quite boring.
exactly
im surprised pokedex 3d isnt on here considering it free…
well i think it’s only games that cost money.. excite bikes is only free till the 7th so it counts..
I only bought zelda LA and mario Land.
Cave Story sounds interesting.
Just download the real one on your computer, its like 900 times better then what the DSiware version will look like on the 3DS and its totally free… it’s the exact same game really, like no differences besides some extra pixels lmfao its a no brainier.
@minecar
but you cant carry your computer in your pockets or can you?
The WiiWare version of Cave Story doesn’t look too different from the PC version, but yeah. Slightly better music, and easier to see detail on a larger screen.
What the?!?! Alleyway should have a higher spot on the eShop, also the DK game > mario game.(unless its the mario clock) I think that Pop+ Solo should be up there.
The UK list looks like this:
In other UK eShop news, they’ve added the Robin Williams Zelda commercial and interview to the eShop. Not sure if they have been added in other countries or not.
This is good to know… i was thinking about purchasing Znonia ^.^
Pokedex 3D didn’t make it? Thats strange considering it’s free
Because pokedex 3d isn’t a game
Oh wait nevermind, now I see that Mario clock is on there and it isnt a game either, so yeah that is strange
I want to buy links awakening SOOOOOOOOOOOO badly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But why arent they selling 3ds cards in Canada yet?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! We cant buy anything except whats free, its so unfair!!!!!
Its no fair to Canada because we cant buy any games yet-they arent selling 3ds cards here yet!
Go to Shoppers, buy a Visa or Master Card gift card. Problem solved. Plus if you don’t wanna use all the money on the eShop you can buy whatever else you want with it.
It’s called credit cards, smarty.
i know right there sopposed to b out already we canadians r always forgotton ): lol
Anyone else seeing this stupid thing beside the title that say “the webpage cannot be found”?!
youre not alone…i see it too
same thing happening to me
yes…
i liked ‘Excite bike’ and Airace:)
What are all you smoking really. I mention several times that the E-shop is a biggest waste. One many games are old dsi ware games, two instead of game boy and game boy color they need to bring out super nintendo and sega genius games to the nintendo 3DS. People keep forgetting how strong the nintendo 3DS truly is.
@fendish. Absolutely right about that playing the legend of zelda ocarina of time 3ds has let me to think how a little gaming device such as the 3ds can dominate the handheld gaming world. I deeply respect your your way of thinking, now if we could have more people on our side. Keep spreading your imagination. One love!
For crying out loud, it just did open not too long ago. Do you really, honestly think they’re going to shove everything on it all at once? They didn’t even do that with the Wii.
Freaking whiny brats.
Oh, hay guise i think we should think that the e-shop sux because Fendish sez so!!1!
We know you don’t like it man. David should make a special forum so you can bitch and moan as much as you’d like…
They should make all games available on wii virtual console available on 3ds. they should also be transferrable between the 2 systems
Hey Mr.Catz you’re an asshole YOU are bitching when he’s just saying his mind
@flyinggazelle Everytime David post something about the eshop this dude bitches about how it’s lacking variety of games even though it launched not even a month ago. So please, fuck off.
I like all game The legend of zelda
In classic, zelda ocarina of times 64 , zelda majora mask 64 , zelda phantom Hourglass NDS, zelda wind walker NDS, Zelda, zelda twilight princess Wii, zelda the minish cap in gamboy , zelda link awakening in gameboy
This is great game for me because i like nintendo game
Links Awakening is so amazing :)
I couldnt beleive donky kong was relessed so erly then I realised it wasnt donky kong land
It’s the original Donkey Kong with Mario or ‘Jump Man’ as he was known!! It’s so awesome and i would buy it if i didn’t already own the cartridge of it for the GameBoy ;D
Actually this version is with mario and isnt the original. just the original concept
excitebike i only play it 3 times and it bored me, I don’t see why is it on first place other than being a remake and free
That is why its first. Its free.
The eShop is in a real need of 3DSware games
AGREED LemonJuice
Skype? lol
I hope they have support of youtube or some type of video streaming, or atleast 3D video recording.
video streaming = netflix coming soon
video streaming = netflix comig soon
netflix isnt youtube and its only in USA
I’m so frustrateeeeeeeeeeeed!!!!!!! I want to buy so many things but in Mexico the only way to add funds it’s using a CREDIT card and I don’t own one!!!!!! Y-Y
I’ve tried using my debit card but it says it’s not supported =(
What can I do? Can somebody help me? =’(
Mexican with no credit card… your a true Mexican ( im mexican too….MEXICAN AMERICAN actually)
I dont know what you can do?
You can probably buy an eShop code or an card on Amazon. Debit cards work on Amazon.
get a debit card that supports visa or mastercard (i mean that they have the logo) and it works, at least is how i have been doing it!
Got the same problem here in Canada. Why won’t they start selling prepaid cards here yet?!
You can buy 3DS pre-paid cards here: Walmart: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Nintendo-Cash-Card-3DS-3DS/16517812 Best Buy: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Nintendo+-+Nintendo+3DS+Cash+Card+(%2420)/2345419.p?id=1218322743034&skuId=2345419&st=3ds%20cash&cp=1&lp=1

Try buying one of the prepaid credit cards at like a grocery store
That has Nothing to do with the 3ds You fucking gay aussie
zenonia should be up there
I want 1, 2, 3 and 4 on my 3DS. I also have 7, 9 and 20 on my DSi.
Just wondering, how is Pokedex 3D not on there?
If you want 1, it’s free, so just get it!
i thought link will be 1st oh well
…I guess they don’t count free stuff but Exitebike is there anyway because it’s only temporarily free?
Where’s Tennis?! I mean great game right there! Totally better than Japan’s DOUBLE DRAGON
they really really need to release more titles the pickings are slim right now. they should release like 10 titles per week or something!
Still no Sonic 20th Anniversary Channel on eShop?
6/19 Nintendo Week said it was coming this week :P

I love this new eShop, it’s always exciting checking out what new games were added. Hopefully some Pokemon classics like Gold or Blue come out soon!
StreetPass Meetups are happening today. Just remembering
I don’t think Gold or Silver will be released on the eshop for the simple reason that HeartGold and SoulSilver were released not too long ago
Yeah but red and blue definalty should be on there. I also want the zelda oracle games.
gold and silver are almost gone and they have games from the 80s so why wouldn’t they have gold, silver, blue, red, crystal, and/or yellow
how about just put all of them on! like, red and blue, then gold and silver, then yellow, then crystal
pokedex 3d & super mario land ftw!
I actually like Extreme Hangman. It’s such a silly game to play but I like it.
Unrelated – I bought a 3DS when it came out. I never owned a DS before, but used to own a NES and SNES systems, and also the first GameBoy and GameBoy Advance.
I thought that maybe the new system with the 3D capabilities (yes, it sold me. Still does) bring me back to my gaming days, I am now 31 years old and have not played games for a few years. The thought of a 3D Mario was enough for me to buy the system.
I have to say though that so far I am very disappointed with the software the system has to offer. Maybe it’s common these days, but I just think it’s ridiculous that a system has so few titles, and even fewer good ones. I can’t. The Eshop, sadly, is so far a joke. It has almost no content at all. What’s the deal with Nintendo? why not release ALL the SNES and NES library on the virtual console? it’s an emulator, right? it’s technologically possible, right? how come I have to wait a year for a Mario game, didn’t they know they were developing a new system? Don’t they know how many systems a game like this can push?
Just my thoughts. The hardware itself is good, I really like the 3D effect (not so much the resolution of the screen and the camera), but as someone who’s not “in the know”, and been out of the gaming world for some time now, it seems like I have a new system with nothing to play on it. Even the games that are planned are too few in my opinion. I know there are good games coming. Too few, and too far away from the release date of the console. I just want my Mario, Nintendo – shake a leg.
Amen
The SNES, NES and N64 games are on the Wii. Only GB, GBC and GBA games will be on the 3DS Virtual Console. At least that’s what I know.
the lawd (lord) has spoken
I bought Donkey Kong and Super Mario Land.
mine is super mario land
Well Excitebike isn’t really selling, is it? :P
I got Link’s Awakening, and it’s great (Virtual Console is really nice, great layout and controls) although the story is odd and almost sad.
Still debating on whether or not to get this cave story or the remake :P
I very highly recommend X-Scape (known as “3D Space Tank” in PAL regions). It’s a DSiWare title, and the sequel to a 3D Japan-only Game Boy game from 1992, which was simply titled “X”.
It’s by the same people who made the original two Star Fox games for the SNES, and Star Fox Command for the DS, and it plays like an excellent mash-up of parts from all of these (with it mainly leaning towards the SNES games, atmosphere-wise).
i didnt know you can sell something thats free. plus excitebike wasnt even worth free.
do me a favor, shut up, and leave davids blogs. your a troll, and u know it. go die in a ditch
@ jdub
trool? WTF! thats lame STOP watching adventure time and get laid.

Too bad Zenonia wasn’t on that list….
Shantae is the best out of all these games you listed
The dungeons are like zelda and castlevania combined! Really awesome I cant see how you say its bad
I heard Shantae was really good, but I bought it and I don’t really like it/ don’t know what to do :c. After spending twelve dollars what good games can I get with my 8 dollars remaining? Or should I wait for new content?
@stargazer i suggest, if you havent already, get zelda links awakening DX. it was a great game!
I just really want to see Nintendo come out with some quality 3DS”ware” games on eshop and some more 3D classics
Almost all of these are on my wishlist :D
Where’s the 3DSWare? I have no complaints with the Virtual Console but please, can’t they make some apps specifically for the 3DS and not DSi? =(
where`s pokemon blue/red?
When is Nintendo going to remake Pokemon Gold and Silver because they both are going to be extinct soon, from the internal battery for the clock in the game. Don’t tell me that they made Heart Gold and Soul Silver because I bought Soul Silver and it is not the same. I want to see those old graphics again !
HeartGold and SoulSilver are what is commonly called a “remake”. That means that although it is like the origional, but is remade for an newer system. Remake would often have new and improved features (such as the obvious “update of graphics and sound”). in fact, some stuff may even be changed! I see your point, though: remakes aren’t the origional game.
I know they are remakes but some people I know just think they’re the same
when well flipnotes come
I’d personally would like to see Square Enix release “Final Fantasy Adventure” and the “Final Fantasy Legend” series as well. I still enjoyed FFA more than its remake, “Sword of Mana” for nostalgic reasons.
I bought Link’s Awakening (Of course) and Donkey Kong because I lost the original a long time ago.
£7.20 for Plants vs Zombies??? i can get that alot cheaper on iphone.
This is a good site, I like all your info of the games coming out, that why you are on google search page 1. Good job. I like it.
Plant vs. Zombies is a fun game. I’ve also played Cave Story for hours. I bought it for a great price of Dsi points.
I’m surprised that Risky’s Revenge is on this list. I mean, $11.00 is pretty steep for a downloadable game.
does anyone know if it’s the same games that are available in all PAL countries? contents differ a little as an example in Germany the Nintendo news comes out every week in Britain, they have a 3d trailer of a movie. Does anyone know any more variety?
hi there got 3d exite bike the legend of zelda awaking super mario land and mario clock with 1,085,975 coins toatal soo thise saying mario clock is no game then why do i have millions of coins on mario clock
