Cubic Ninja pulled from the Japanese eShop as 3DS homebrew approaches
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 16 Comments
Have you heard of the 3DS game Cubic Ninja? It was a small title from AQ Interactive and Ubisoft, which arrived around the time of Nintendo’s portable.
As fate would have it, Cubic Ninja is the key to unlocking homebrew on 3DS. That’s led to the title disappearing at all major retailers with demand far outpacing supply. Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop pretty much have no stock remaining.
Cubic Ninja was available digitally in Japan, but not anymore! Nintendo pulled the game recently in what is likely an attempt to cut down on 3DS homebrew as much as possible.
Those who have managed to purchase Cubic Ninja can use an exploit in the game and add homebrew to their 3DS system starting on Friday.

DK: King of Swing rated for Wii U by the ESRB
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
DK: King of Swing has received a Wii U rating over on the ESRB. You know what that means: it’s probably coming soon to the Virtual Console. This week, perhaps?
A rating for Mario Kart: Super Circuit was discovered on the ESRB last week, and it ended up launching on the North American Wii U Virtual Console a day later. It’d hardly be shocking if something similar happened with DK: King of Swing.
