This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following featured content:

Nintendo eShop
Blaster Master: Enemy Below – Using the strong weapons and high jumping power of his legendary battle vehicle, Jason must explore a subterranean region where a sinister life form resides. (For Nintendo 3DS™)

Nintendo eShop / Nintendo DSiWare™
Elite Forces: Unit 77 – Drive armored trucks and tanks, defuse mines, locate explosives and rescue hostages. Gather your forces into a crack squad or control a single game character based on the strategic requirements. (For Nintendo 3DS /Nintendo DSi™)


Update: IGN has heard from Nintendo that the information below also applies to North America.

You know that game-breaking bug that some users are encountering in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword? Nintendo is finally offering a couple of solutions to help Japanese players who are unable to progress.

The company will soon send out a program for those with Internet access. Nintendo will share more information about this in the near future, but presumably it will fix the bug. Players without an Internet connection are being asked to send in their SD card or Wii system so Nintendo can take care of the issue.

All of this applies only to Japan for the moment. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if NoA/NoE followed up with the same exact solutions as well.

We posted the smaller resolution one yesterday, but now we’ve got something a little more comfortable to feast your eyes on!

Obviously some sort of hack/cheat was used here since Link jumped up high into the air toward the beginning of the video. Not sure why someone would want to bath with Gaepora, but it’s uh… interesting I guess? It’s strange seeing how the lower half of his body isn’t present…


Nintendo of America’s rewards program has announced a major overhaul of its website and the introduction of downloadable games for loyal Nintendo fans. Now, Club Nintendo™ members who earn enough Coins can redeem them for select downloadable Wii™ and Nintendo 3DS™ games. The revamped site offers members a streamlined online experience and more exciting ways to redeem Coins.

Starting today, Club Nintendo members can exchange 100 Coins for Super Mario Kart™ and 150 Coins for Fluidity on the Wii console. Normally these games are offered at 800 Wii Points™ and 1,200 Wii Points respectively, making this new offer a great value for members. Club Nintendo members also have the option of exchanging 100 Coins for 3D Classics: Xevious® and 150 Coins for Mario vs. Donkey Kong™: Minis March Again! for the Nintendo 3DS system. These two games normally sell for $5.99 and $7.99 respectively.

Kid Icarus: Uprising has a new logo, and I’m not sure that I like the change. It is just a logo though, so there’s no reason to make too much of a fuss about it.


Nintendo isn’t finished with MotionPlus controls for Zelda titles just yet. Eiji Aonuma told the Official Nintendo Magazine that there were some ideas they had that weren’t used in Skyward Sword.

These elements will appear in future Zelda games. Perhaps we’ll see some of these ideas in Zelda Wii U if Nintendo decides to use MotionPlus rather than the tablet controller (or maybe the two could be used together).

Aonuma told the magazine:

“We will want to use the Wii Motion-Plus controls that we did not use this time in future games, so we cannot tell you now. Please look forward to seeing them in the future.”
