Nintendo eShop Update – Gotta Protectors, 3Souls and BLOC

There are a handful of new digital titles and Kirby-related content available on the Nintendo eShop today… nothing particularly high profile except a Kirby: Planet Robobot 3DS demo and a few indie titles such as Gotta Protectors, 3Souls and BLOC. And a couple of Virtual Console titles.

Read on for all the fun.

This week?s Nintendo Download includes the following featured content:

  • Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS
    • Kirby: Planet Robobot ? Another year older, another year ? pinker? What better way to celebrate Kirby?s birthday than with a free demo of his new sci-fi adventure,Kirby: Planet Robobot for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, alongside other great Kirby games.
  • Wii Retail on Wii U
    • Kirby?s Epic Yarn ? When Kirby incurs the anger of a sorcerer, he is transported to a world made completely of cloth and yarn. In this Wii classic, guide Kirby through uniquely crafted levels in Patch Land as he takes on a variety of forms and transforming into powerful vehicles. A second player can also aid in the adventure by playing as the adorably named Prince Fluff (additional accessories required for multiplayer mode; sold separately).
  • Virtual Console on Wii U
    • Kirby Mass Attack ? Gather a mob of Kirby characters and then lead them through this crazy Game Boy Advance adventure in which nothing can stand in your way. Send Kirbys swarming over enemies, fling them into the air to hit flying floes and even use them to take on challenges of strength. Don?t forget to collect medals hidden throughout various stages to unlock mini-games.
  • Virtual Console on Nintendo 3DS
    • Kirby?s Dream Course ? Get ready for one of the most surprising Kirby games imaginable! In this fun Super NES golf game ? yes, it?s a Kirby golf game ? control the force and angle of your shot and sink Kirby for a hole-in-one.
