Europe receiving Nintendo Pocket Football Club, combined Mario vs. Donkey Kong offering at retail

Nintendo is bringing some of its 3DS eShop titles to retail in Europe. Kind of.

Nintendo Pocket Football Club and a combined Mario vs. Donkey Kong offering – comprised of Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! – will be available to purchase as boxed copies starting on January 16.

There is one catch, however. Neither of the two retail releases come with cards. You’ll receive physical boxes, but they’ll come with download codes instead.
