@gojiguy The arcade version is only on the Wii VC in Japan, but you can play the arcade version on a Wii or Wii U with Namco Museum Remix or Namco Museum Megamix.

The "3D Classics" version of Xevious uses the graphics and sound from the arcade version. You can also play the arcade version on a DS or 3DS with Namco Museum DS.

I think Mario is joining the Wii U version of Sonic racing Transformed.

I think it's Mario coming to Transformed.

@manu0 I think they're talking about just the Wii U VC.

I think Mario's coming to Transformed

I hope this one's big since Nintendo's not having an E3 conference.

Another excellent week!

I hope they phase out the basic version of the Wii U. because it's not much cheaper than the Deluxe version.

I wonder if the Teen Titans will be in this

I'll probably get the 3DS version.

I'll at least pick up the 3DS version.

Bad move Ninty, the only understandable reason to fix this would be if this was getting localized to the US (I personally wouldn't mind it, but many Americans wouldn't take this very well.) but this is still probably not going to be localized either.

Damn it, that pic got me excited.

I don't need the VC version since I have Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions and Namco Museum.

I already have Mario All-Stars on my Wii, but I hope everyone that does plan on downloading it enjoys it.

Reminds me of when Fox News made fun of the 3DS and called it a "DS3".

I'm buying lots of 3DS eShop games.

@TwilightV I'm doing it.

@UnseatingKDawg Oh, okay.

@UnseatingKDawg This wasn't a bad week, and what do you mean updating Super Mario Bros and Xevious?

Great week! Tank Tank Tank DL version is finally here and the 3DS NES Ambassador games are done in North America.

So it gets it on the Japanese day of the month on the American month.

These are almost like Steam sales.

I wouldn't be completely shocked if it was revealed to not be for Wii U.

Animal Crossing Bad Fur Day

@MrWalkieTalkie A new holiday got recently created called May Fools.

I like playing games on my nephew's smartphone, but they don't replace real games.

Nintendo needs to do the same by sending a 3DS message to DSi owners.

Another day 1 purchase! 2013 continues to be the best year for the 3DS.

@megamanrulz14 I wouldn't be surprised if it was rated M.

Day one purchase for me.

@TheRavingTimes What Captain_Balko said plus it's in Japan where everyone's super-fit.

I'm getting the retail version.

That image fooled me into thinking there was a Mutant Mudds Deluxe Wii U bundle for a second.

Nice catch up on the Ambassador games Europe!

Also, the Wii U VC releases remind me of Street Fighter X Tekken.

The chances of a character made outside of Japan winning are super slim, but I'll try it anyways for the heck of it.

With Iwata making choices for Nintendo in America instead of an older man doing it, we may get more games a week.

I'm surprised that not even the Japanese 3DS has that many shumups.

Heh, I was planning on picking up a copy during May at the latest anyways.

I hope Harvest Moon GBC and Tank! Tank! Tank! DL version come to NA soon.

I remember watching a trailer for the Japanese version last October, I may pick this up sometime.

@KaiserGX If this was Miiverse, I would click like.

@HeatBombastic It'd be suicide to not make a Mario Kart Wii U bundle on the day MKU comes out.

I'm surprised, since Mario Karts usually come every 3 years.

I'll get Rayman Legends Challenges App if it comes to NA.

I'm getting Tetris Axis and Aero Porter for myself, and Dress to Play Cute Witches for my niece.

While links to the NA and EU Directs are in the Nintendo Life news section, here' a link to the Japan Direct.

@GamerZack7 They'll release that the same day they release Hotel Mario.
