Today we maintain the 2016 trend with slim pickings in today’s Nintendo Download!
The Wii U continues to get love and support through 2016 with four new titles available to download today. The 3DS side gets a single title and some Fire Emblem Fates DLC. If none of these five titles or the Fire Emblem Fates DLC does not interest you, perhaps pre-loading Star Fox Zero will. Let’s dive right in!
The lonely title on the 3DS is Doll Fashion Atelier. This is a game where you can pick a doll model, and design it just the way you always wanted. After picking one of the five themes, you can then purchase over six hundred pieces of clothing to further customize your doll. If that did not sell you on it, well, there is always the new Fates map, Anna on the Run. If you purchased the Map Pack 1 – you will just need to download the new map. The Map Pack will likely only be available for a few more weeks when the first ‘season’ of DLC runs its course. You save money by purchasing the pack!
If you were looking for a new Virtual Console game, you are in luck as the Game & Watch Gallery 4 is now available on the Wii U eShop. Also appearing today are Emojikara: A Clever Emoji Match Game, Epic Dumpster Bear, and SUPER ROBO MOUSE. If you are excited about the new Star Fox game like us, then you will be heading to the eShop to pre-purchase Star Fox Zero. By pre-purchasing the game, you can download practically the entire game and when the game releases on April 22, you just have a launch part of the code to download. So you can immediately begin enjoying Star Fox Zero after a few minutes.
There are variety of games on sale for Spring, so be sure to check those out. While they are not all listed below, be sure to check the eShop for special deals. By purchasing any of the games, you will earn My Nintendo Gold points. You will also get a few Platinum points by just logging into the eShop!
