Nintendo Download for June 23, 2016 – North America

There are fourteen games and more in today’s Nintendo Download! 

This has to be one of the largest Nintendo Downloads in quite a while as there are fourteen different titles to select from.  Unfortunately the majority are for the Wii U, with only three being available for the 3DS.  So let’s jump right in!

 

There is an interesting selection of games available on the 3DS.  We have ghouls, ghosts, monsters and a Rubik’s cube.  The first two belong to the SNES classic Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts.  This is the third entry in the series where Arthur is on a quest to save the princess.  Time to save the day (and night) yet again!  Unholy Heights combines monsters with apartment management.  You rent out a building of apartments to monsters and you must keep them happy.  While they remain happy, you need to fend off heroes who will come in and try to slay all your residents!  Team them up to fight back in this simulator action game.  Or if you are looking to solve a virtual Rubik’s Cube, you can pick that up on the 3DS or even the Wii U.

There is a huge selection of games to buy on the Wii U eShop.  First up, and available tomorrow are Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.  These games have been covered plenty from E3.  Fans and backers from Keiji Inafune’s campaign will be delighted to see Mighty No. 9 is now available.  This is the spiritual successor to the Mega Man franchise where it takes side-scrolling action, enemies with unique powers that you can absorb in this fast-paced action-packed game.  Fans of Pokémon will be happy to see not one, but three virtual console classics with Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team, and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky.  All three come from the GBA and now available for you solve the mystery dungeon.  In addition to Rubik’s Cube, you can also find Splashy Duck, Star Sky 2, Blackjack 21, and Educational Pack of Kids Games.

There’s a couple new themes available on the 3DS Theme Shop if you are a fan of Rhythm Heaven.  There is also a new activity, where you can submit a Miiverse post to how gaming on the 3DS/2DS will be extra fun while on vacation.  Check below for official rules, how to enter and more.  As always, you can check out the full list of all new releases, prices, discounts, and more below.
