Mercenaries Saga 2 is one of my favorite 3DS eshop games. The graphics and gameplay of Mercenaries remind me of Final Fantasy Tactics a bit, while also providing a unique story (with multiple endings!). When I finished the second game, I was hoping that there would be another one. I was very happy when Mercenaries Saga 3 was announced! And I’m even happier to announce that the game is coming out next week. Mercenaries Saga 3 is coming out on…

Of course, ever since Nintendo announced the new Welcome amiibo cards, I’ve been really excited for them too. And on Saturday last week, I finally received three packs of the new cards! I carefully opened the three packs and took out all of the cards. These cards each…

Nintendo’s BoxBoy, a downloadable game for the 3DS eshop, has seen two games already. BoxBoy is created by Hal Laboratory, the creators of Kirby. The unique puzzle platformer is an example of another new franchise from Nintendo.

Currently, these are both just for Japan, but we may see them in the West eventually. Check out the details ...

He gave me a review copy of the game and I’ve been…
