New Nintendo eShop releases: Super Smash Bros, Dracula X
It's time, once again, for Nintendo's pantheon to beat the ever-loving snot out of itself. Super Smash Bros. for 3DS headlines this week's Nintendo eShop update, arriving tomorrow with a cast of familiar favorites and eager newcomers. Smashers can currently download the game's free version 1.02 update from the Nintendo eShop in advance of tomorrow's release. Also hitting the eShop this week is a Wii U Virtual Console port of Konami's Super NES platformer Castlevania: Dracula X. Note that this isn't the version of Dracula X that many hold in high regard; the SNES version is a compromised reworking of the PC Engine classic Dracula X: Rondo of Blood. Konami has more Castlevania in store for the month of October, announcing that the Game Boy Advance series entries Castlevania: Circle of the Moon and Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance will hit the Wii U on October 9 and October 16, respectively. Other games premiering this week include the anime-based 3DS fighting game Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle, edutainment release Red Riding Hood, and EnjoyUp's Wii U dodge-'em-up 99Seconds. A full list of this week's eShop releases is after the break. [Image: Nintendo]
Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle coming to 3DS from Namco Bandai
Cartoon Network series and toy line Tenkai Knights will shapeshift this summer into Tenkai Knights: Brave Battle, a 3DS game from Namco Bandai. Nintendo Everything reports that Brave Battle will build its story and four-player versus modes from 2D, action-oriented gameplay. Players won't be stuck with static representations of a creative toy, either - robots will be customizable and capable of shapeshifting to different modes in battle. Brave Battle will follow the Tenkai Knights as they attempt to stop The Corrupted and their leader Vilius from conquering the planet Quarton, as well as Earth. Namco Bandai did not specify whether Vilius' final attack will be a single-stud brick hidden in carpet, but we feel it would be the most convincing way to establish sinister intentions.
