Grinsia will launch on the North American 3DS eShop in a couple of weeks, according to a listing on Nintendo’s website. An official page has the game pegged for a May 8 release. Nicalis just confirmed this week that Grinsia had been approved by Nintendo of America, so an early May launch certainly makes sense.
