Yep. Still tons of great deals there. If you are looking for something inexpensive and pretty awesome, pick up Ninja Battle Heroes.

Ninja Battle Heroes??? What's that about?

I miss your weekly updates and recommendations. I picked up a few things from those. I can get the list of what's on sale but it's the recommendations and advice that goes with it that is extremely helpful, beyond just Nintendo Life's reviews.

Thanks!

I haven't been posting much because the deals there have been a little ho-hum, IMO, recently. They are pretty good right now, however, and I suggest people check out:

Escape from Zombie City
Ninja Battle Heroes
Runny Egg
Smash Cat Heroes

All are from Tom Create, a small Japanese studio whose output on the 3DS is very solid. The first is a top down run-n-gun like Commando; the second is a really great side scrolling action game like Shinibi; the third is a fantastic Sonj the Hedgehog style platformer; and the fourth is a fun over head action game like Pocky & Rocky.

I also suggest:

Azure Striker Gunvolt
Block Bot
Hazumi
Jonhnny's Payday Panic
Mutant Mudds
Never Alone
Nova-111
Olli Olli
Paper Monsters
Quell Memento
Rage of the Gladiator
Speed X
Spy Chameleon
Stealth, Inc. 2
The Swapper
The Swindle
Ultratron

All are solid, and all are on sale. (Nintendolife has detailed reviews of each game if you want more information.)

That's my go-to source for all Nintendo related news and review. Also, I totally agree about Ultratron; that's one of the best Wii U eShop games IMO. Then again, I have a serious hard-on for Robotron and twin stick shooters in general.

Nintendo Life is my go to for Nintendo news. They have nice reviews as well but sometimes it's nice to get someone else's take on games. Especially someone who's offered good advice before.

It's fantastic, man, and more than worth whatever the asking price is.

FYI

A bunch of Sega 3D classics are on sale in the eShop. They are the games not included in the forthcoming physical release; so, this is a great time to pick them up. (I will be getting 3D After Burner II, Out Run, and Space Harrier.)
