Nintendo eShop Europe downloads have been released by Nintendo for September 19th. As per usual this list only applies to gamers in Europe and does not mean these are available to download right now, you’ll have to wait until Thursday as it’s the day Nintendo updates the eShop.
It sure took it’s time but Harvest Moon: A New Beginning finally arrives on the 3DS, this one has been out in Japan since early 2012 and yet we’re only getting it now for whatever reason. It’s not even a translation issue, it’s been out in America since late 2012.
I imagine the title that gains the most interest this week will be the Virtual Console release of Mega Man X for Wii U. The X series went down the toilet with later entries but it sure got off to a good start with Mega Man X so be sure to check that one out.
