North American 3DS Ambassadors who downloaded the NES version of Download Donkey Kong Jr. from the eShop last year can now download an update for the game.

Simply head on over to the store, visit the Donkey Kong Jr. shelf, and touch the “To Update Screen” option. The download should then be ready to go.


This isn’t anywhere close to being one of the top Wii games, but it doesn’t look completely awful. If it really is halfway decent, that’d be an accomplishment considering how terrible movie tie-ins are.



Vampire: Master of Darkness will be hitting the Japanese eShop as a Game Gear download on June 27 for 300 yen. Screenshots of the game can be found above.

As has been the case for quite some time, Nintendo isn’t concerned with console power. The Wii U is capable in its own right, but no one expects it to offer more juice than Microsoft and Sony’s next-gen systems.

Shigeru Miyamoto was recently asked about the Wii U’s power relative to the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 successors. He responded by saying that power and cost must be balanced, and in a separate answer, said that “it’s easy to lose sight of whether a game is fun or not.”

Head past the break to see all of Miyamoto’s comments about console power, Nintendo’s switch to HD, and changes made to the Wii U (the hardware hasn’t changed over the past year, but obviously the GamePad has).


The video above provides a closer look at the actual Wii U console and the GamePad. This one is for the tech lovers out there!
