3DS eShop

Petit Computer looks to be making its way towards the 3DS. Teases posted on Smileboom’s website and Twitter account hint at an upcoming announcement. I imagine we’ll be receiving details in the near future.


Shin’en’s Manfred Linzner recently commented on a number of topics pertaining to Jett Rocket. Linzner discussed the original game’s success, what the team initially had in store for Jett Rocket II and the game’s length, interest in making a third entry, and more.

You can find a few of Linzer’s comments below. You can find more about Jett Rocket II over at over at Nintendo Life.


Although Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse has mostly been shrouded in mystery since Nintendo Power’s reveal late last year, WayForward has been chugging away at the game’s development. That work has paid off as Pirate’s Curse will be making its playable debut at PAX Prime 2013 later this month. The title was included in Nintendo’s list of games at its PAX Prime booth.

This revelation suggests that details and media for Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse are on the way – keep your eyes peeled for updates. Last we heard, the 3DS eShop release is on track for a Fall 2013 launch.


We wanted to highlight one particular game from Nintendo’s PAX 2013 lineup. According to a press release provided by Nintendo, Retro City Rampage will be playable on 3DS.

As far as I know, Retro City Rampage was never announced for the handheld. It’s a bit of a surprise, but a nice one! Stop by Nintendo’s booth at PAX later this month to see the game running on 3DS for the first time.
