VIDEOS: New 3DS In Japan Feels The Super Famicom Love
The Super Famicom (the Japanese equivalent of the Super Nintendo) released on November 21, 1990. In celebration of the anniversary, Nintendo has supercharged the number of games releasing on the New 3DS eShop. Some of these games will probably never see the light of day over in North America, since they were never localized. Still, it would be nice to see a huge helping of SNES games on the service too.
This week’s releases in Japan are:
Super Famicom Wars
Mario’s Super Picross
Live A Live
Fire Emblem: Thracia 776
Pop’n TwinBee
Kirby’s Star Stacker
Last week’s releases in Japan were:
Super Punch-Out!!
Super Castlevania IV
Mega Man X3
Final Fight 2
Final Fight Tough
Tactics Ogre
