Digger Dan DX will be returning to the 3DS eShop
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 3 Comments
Four Horses made it known recently that Digger Dan DX had been pulled from the 3DS eShop. An unfortunate situation had developed, and First Star Software (owner of the Boulder Dash rights) asked Nintendo for its removal. Many had thought that Digger Dan DX would be gone permanently, but it looks like that won’t be the case at all.
Here’s the latest from Four Horses:
I am happy to announce that I received an immediate response from First Star Software, Inc. having contacted them on Sunday, and we have already settled this issue to our mutual satisfaction. (In fact I’m thrilled with the terms.) I hope to get Digger Dan DX back on sale as soon as possible though, due to the re-submission processes with Nintendo, this may take a few months. Hopefully much less. (I don’t know yet.)
Definitely good to hear that it’s all been settled! When Digger Dan DX does return to the eShop, you’ll be the first to know.

A rating in Australia originally confirmed plans to have the Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack in the west. That means it should be released in North America as well as PAL regions.
