Nintendo has unveiled a list of upcoming download titles on the 3DS eShop with some release periods for us to take in. There aren't any specific dates, but we at least have an idea of when we can expect the titles to arrive. These are all North American details, but we'll optimistically hope that PAL region releases won't be too dissimilar.
We have two titles confirmed for June so far. Order Up!! will arrive for budding chefs in need of 3D training, while Planet Crashers looks like a colourful and vibrant RPG dungeon-crawl. For retro gamers in North America there's also the good news that the Game Boy Color version of Prince of Persia, already out in Europe, is due in Q2.
Four titles are confirmed as 'summer' arrivals. Unchained Blades sounds like one to watch, with turn-based first-person dungeon crawling combined with a promised 60 hours of gameplay. Bomb Monkey is the latest from Renegade Kid, with this title being a puzzler where a monkey throws bombs, surprisingly. Nicalis will produce two titles this summer, Cave Story+ is yet another re-release on a Nintendo platform, while NightSky will eventually arrive after a long spell in the WiiWare wilderness.
There are five titles due to arrive in the fall, which a cynic may suggest means 'may be delayed'. First up is Coaster Creator, a rollercoaster creation title where your Mii's test out the finished rides. SpeedX 3D is a tunnel racer with an old-school polygon art style. Aban Hawkins & the 1,001 Spikes is a retro platformer that's also on the way to Wii U, but 3DS will get there first. Finally we have two Pokémon titles: Pokédex 3D Pro is a paid and enhanced version of the launch day app, while Pokémon Dream Radar is an AR shooting game in a similar vein to Face Raiders.
That's all folks, are any of those on your eShop wishlist?

First comment ? Might get NightSky, but that's 'bout it for me >.<.
I tried out the Order Up!! demo. It....reminds me too much of work. >.>
Where's Jett Rocket?
Any word on Prince of Persia for (North America) Wii Virtual Console?
NightSky O_O Looking forward to it!
I want Planet Crashers! Last time I saw it, it looked great. Maybe we'll get a demo first like w/ Order Up!
Still waiting for Wario Land!
We'll see I guess..not enough info on the games.
Cave Story and SpeedX 3D are probable purchases from me though.
Nope.
The video I watched for Planet Crashers didn't look too exciting, and Order Up appears fairly average from what I'm seeing but I'll just have to wait and see, willing to give either a chance if they turn out to be better than I expect.
Good to hear a nice list of titles for the more long-term future.
Also, liking the auto-updating comments!
Order Up is great, and I've been looking forward to Unchained Blades for a while.
But where's Johnny Kung-Fu?
Probably will get that AR pokémon game, but everything else...eh.
Need info on each individual game before I can download. Order Up was an ok Wii game wasn't it? I may DL that. Nightsky, Pokemons, Coaster Creator. Need revws for all
Considering the great lineup we've recently had, the entire remainder of this year sounds really disappointing.
These all sounded pretty "meh no big deal."
Im going to get Order up because I liked the demo!
The new Thundurus and friends forms look cool, Landorus being the coolest.
I'll definitely get Cave story+ as I've never played any version of it and I might get Bomb monkey.
Can't help but wonder is that Coaster Creator is why RollerCoaster Tycoon 3ds keeps getting delayed..Nintendo often uses a knock off game experience to beat thier vendors to the punch line. System Flaw/Face Raiders is an example of thier copying and idea, not original to them. I love how they pad a 3ds (with wii or WiiU) article to make it appear there is more games being released than there actually is..This list is lame for a comparatively new handheld. I'm one embarassed Ambassador..
Unchained Blades , Planet Crashers, Aban Hawkins & the 1,001 Spikes, and NightSky are on my want list
Pokemon AR game is a given.
Starting to get the feeling that the 3ds life span will contain mostly GBC games with a few actual 3ds games sprinkled throughout it's life span.
Undoubtedly awesome lineup for the most part. How anyone can be dissapointed in this is beyond me.
Cave Story + and unchained blades. Now we need a release date...
Night sky, 1000 spikes, Pokemon dream radar, pokedex pro 3D, those are what I want
@SyFyTy yes, because one GBC game and many more 3DS games announced is great evidence for that.
I really want Bomb Monkey!!
Cpaster creator 3d is way better then rtc!!!
Unchained Blades, Planet Crashers and Bomb Monkey all sound like possibilities for purchases. Unchained Blades almost a sure thing being XSeed and all.
CAVE STORY YUSSSS
When will Tingle's Balloon Fight come to NA? Downloadable is fine!
I'm downloading NSMB2 trailer from Wii shop right now!
Maybe Pokemon Dream Radar... I don't plan on getting Black/White 2 but I enjoyed Face Raiders...
Cave Story+, Night Sky, Coaster Creator, Unchained Blades, both Pokemon game. Quite a bit I want to download. Have to wait for more information of course.
Greatly looking forward to NightSky!
I'm waiting on NightSky and Unchained Blades!
I'm at least getting both the Pokémon titles, not decided about the other stuff yet.
Waiting on the two Pokemon titles and Order Up
