It’s a triple dose of Kirby classics on the eShops this week in North America. Aside from Kirby’s Epic Yarn and Kirby Mass Attack on Wii U, Kirby’s Dream Course is slated for New 3DS.

Nintendo’s website has the following overview:

“Scan the course and check out the obstacles ahead. Get ready for the most surprising game play imaginable in Kirby’s battle against King Dedede! This checkerboard challenge brings outrageous hazards and bizarre surfaces. Gordo, Kracko, Whispy Woods and a cast of zany characters await you. Gain special powers including Fireball, Freeze, and Spark. Transform your enemies into stars revealing eight hidden cups. Control the force and angle of your shot and sink Kirby for a hole-in-one!”

Kirby’s Dream Course will be available tomorrow for $7.99.
