Hey, Joe here to give you guys a break from all the Nintendo news that launched today to bring you some different Nintendo news instead.

Today’s Nintendo 3DS eShop update keeps up the recent trend of being packed lots of new stuff and plenty of awesome. Two old school classics on the 3DS Virtual Console, some Mario Bros. DLC, a pinball demo, and even a Virtual Console title for the Wii!

Hit the jump for all the info!

Nintendo 3DS eShop Update

• Castlevania: The Adventure (Game Boy Virtual Console) – $3.99 – Old school Castlevania action in some old school black and grey.
• Ghosts ‘n Goblins (NES Virtual Console) – $4.99 – Old school Ghosts ‘n Goblins action, but this one IN FULL COLOR.
• Liberation Maiden – $7.99 - Level-5 and Suda 51 hooked up and made a 3D mech shooter. What is this? I don’t even… How the hell is this a thing and why do I need it so bad?
• NightSky – $9.99 – Puzzle platformer with balls. I’ve been writing a lot of posts involving balls lately…
• 18th Gate – $4.99 - Strategy RPG with hex-grid gameplay. (Also available on the Nintendo DSi Shop for 500 DSi Points)
• Marvel Pinball 3D (DEMO) – Hey look! I get to talk about balls again! Pinball with Marvel characters. And in 3D. And balls.
• New Super Mario Bros. 2 Coin Rush Packs – $2.50 each – Coin Challenge Pack B and Gold Mushroom Pack challenges for you to buy and challenge yourself, Mariolistically.
• Mutant Mudds – New free update that includes 20 new levels!

Wii Virtual Console Update

• Shock Troopers (Neo Geo) – 900 Wii Points – Top down run and gun where you get to blow some s–t UP. God I miss the old days of gaming. I’m getting old… :(

So there you have it. A crapload of new games to play, some DLC for a game you probably already play, and a free update for another game you really should be playing if you already aren’t. And I had two more chances to talk about balls. Man, wait til that review of mine goes up when Kyle gets to it…
Ball talk galore!
