Next week, Japan is getting 101 DinoPets 3D and a Japan only Famicom game called "Challenger".

Challenger is supposed to be one of the better of the first-gen third-party Famicom games.

Oracle Of Ages and Oracle Of Seasons are now out in Japan. No word on the Advance Shop, but the Link System is available. Both are due out elsewhere before Summer.

Edit: Ninja'd by the NL Team! XD

Just browsing around a few publisher websites, & I found out that CIRCLE Entertainment will be handling the publishing duties for the smash hit, Gunman Clive in Japan. They're localizing it under the title of Gunman Story (not sure when it'll release, though).

Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers
PS4 - Kingdom Hearts III, Tetris Effect (VR)

I'm not surprised that they're doing this, Guman Clive is the best selling 3rd party 3DSware game.

For 3DSware, Japan is getting 2 different games that star the same female character.

For VC, they're getting a Japan-only Famicom RPG that features odd characters you wouldn't see in most other RPGS. They're other game is the Famicom port of the Namco arcade game Dragon Buster. Even though I downloaded Dig Dug, I'm probably not going to download anymore Namco NES ports at least for now because I'm predicting Namco Museum 3DS is going to be announced this year. This will be the last time I mention Namco Museum in this topic, I promise.

Actually, it's an RPG-themed board game.
It's called Sugoro's Quest, and it was made by Technos.
I thought it kind of fun, but being that action in battle is determined by dice rolls, you can imagine it's very luck dependent. (of course, Restore Points can probably be used to pretty much eliminate any sort of challenge from the game.)
I've heard the FC version of Dragon Buster is an improvement over the arcade game, but I didn't play much. (I suppose Dragon Buster might be one of the earliest side-scrollers.)

I could be mistaken, but I believe those two 3DS Downloads this week, are actually educational titles (one of them an English aid).

The games Japan's getting this time were revealed early this week and Nintendo Life news already covered them all.

I'm surprised it's Castlevania II instead of Ninja Gaiden II since NGII in supposed to be coming to the 3DS VC in the rest of the world real soon.

Japan will also be getting Fractured Soul next week (I was hoping they'd get this one, I got it during it's sale).

EDIT: They're also getting another Guild02 game next week and Mother 2 is now out on the Japanese Wii U.

Super Hang On 3D is nice but I REALLY hope OutRun comes sooner or later.

While not VC related, Japan in finally getting Freakyforms Deluxe on April 10th along with Dillon's Rolling Western 2.

With Freakyforms Deluxe and Dillon's Rolling Western 2 being this week's 3DSware for them (they're not getting a cartridge version of Freakyforms Deluxe like we did), they will be getting the NES port of the Namco arcade game "Sky Kid" and a Japan only text adventure game called "Lipple(Ripple) Island" by Sunsoft.

EDIT: I'm going to try to post the links to these games from now on.

EDIT 2: The JP only text adventure is called "Lipple(Ripple) Island", thanks KingMike.

Adventure Island II is the only NES game that I want to come to the 3DS VC. It came out in EU and JP for the Wii VC but it never came to NA for whatever reason (despite us receiving both Super Adventure Island games).
