Original (12/21): On Wii U, Mario Party 2 arrives on the Virtual Console tomorrow. But New 3DS won’t be left out of the re-release fun. Nintendo’s website indicates that the portable will be getting Castlevania Dracula X following tomorrow’s eShop update.

Here’s an overview:

“After rising from his eternal sleep, Count Dracula summons his dark minions–Cerberus, Minaurus and the Salamander–to bring a reign of terror on the land. In order to lure the latest Belmont descendant, Dracula kidnaps Annette Renard and her sister Maria as bait.

Gear up as Richter Belmont, equipped with the legendary Vampire Killer, in his strife to save his beloved. Battling against the monsters that lurk in the shadows, strategically using magical tomes, mystical power-ups and titanic weapons and discovering secret bonus levels. Unfold another chapter in the Belmont family’s lineage, with over 7 stages of grim encounters and a myriad of possibilities depending on the choices that you make.”

Castlevania Dracula X will be priced at $7.99.

Legna Tactica, which just came out in Japan last week, will be making its way west soon. Nintendo is listing the game on its website, confirming localization from Kemco.

Here’s the official overview:

“In the lands of Feyzum, where the Kingdom of Legna is drawn into the chaos of battle against the Empire of Izmoot, Leck and his friends Miana and Astar are engaged in field training as trainee soldiers. Suddenly, it is decided that they will accompany the Hero of the Kingdom of Legna, General Varrius, and the Azure Hawk Brigade which he leads, on a mission to suppress the bandits. However, they know nothing of the inescapable destiny that awaits them…

Legna Tactica is a full-scale strategy RPG with an orthodox system where players can choose party members to join turn-based tactical battles on isometric grid.

Not only the game features multiple endings based on the player choices during the story, but also titles to achieve and engaging skill tree system to customize characters as you like!

It is time to witness the fate of the lands of Feyzum!”

Legna Tactica doesn’t have a release date in North America or Europe yet. However, it’s likely that Kemco will publish the title in early 2017.
