New Nintendo 3DS

Pirate Pop Plus will launch for Wii U and New 3DS on October 20, 13AM Games announced today. The game will cost $4.99, and cross-buy will be supported. If you purchase one version, you’ll get the other at no extra cost.

Pirate Pop Plus is an 8-bit action game with Game Boy-era graphics. It’ll offer a “touch of Buster Bros (Pang Adventures), a bevy of weapons and power ups, and gravity-altering mechanics”. The main mechanic involves building chains and combos to achieve high scores while battling the Bubble Pirate and having to work through gravity that can turn you upside down or side to side at a moment’s notice.

View the launch trailer for Pirate Pop Plus below.

Final Fight 2 isn’t the only New 3DS Virtual Console game due out in North America tomorrow. In addition to that one, we’ll be seeing Final Fight 3.

Nintendo’s website has the following overview:

“Following the defeat and subsequent disappearance of the Mad Gear Gang, a small group known only as “Skull Cross” is responsible for a new uprising of vandalism, terrorism and death. The government of Metro City is at a complete loss. Metro City’s mayor, Mike Haggar, and Guy are prepared to take on the new gang, but before they can act, the door bursts open, revealing Lucia, Cody’s old friend. “Metro City is under attack!” she shouts, “Skull Cross is loose, and they’ve got something up their sleeves.” But before any of them can move, a mysterious man appears in the doorway. “My name is Dean,” he says. “I know Skull Cross inside-and-out, and I hate them more than anything. I can help you, and you can help me. We must go!” All four fighters vow to bring Skull Cross down. It will be a tough assignment, and may even be their final fight!”

Just like Final Fight 2, Final Fight 3 will cost $7.99.

Capcom is bringing another release to the North American New 3DS Virtual Console. As of tomorrow, Final Fight 2 will be available, according to Nintendo’s website.

A listing provides the following overview:

“It’s been several years since peace settled in Metro City. With Cody and Jessica on vacation and Guy resuming his training out of town, everything seems to be in order. But recently, Haggar is feeling uneasy after learning that Mad Gear was not completely destroyed.

Once again the Mad Gear Gang has emerged and this time they want revenge. They’ll stop at nothing to bring Haggar and the entire world down to its knees. This time they’ve kidnapped Guy’s master, Genryusai and his daughter, Rena.

Now Haggar must travel the four corners of the globe to search for Genryusai and Rena. With the help of Maki and Carlos, the reign of the Mad Gear Gang will hopefully be destroyed.”

Pricing for Final Fight 2 is set at $7.99.
