Super Mario Run, the big Nintendo digital release this week isn’t even for a Nintendo platform… but that doesn’t matter, as long as you have access to an iOS device (for now), you can pick it up from the Apple App Store.
For those who want to check out actual eShop titles, the selection is a little more sparse. Those include Breakout Defense, Scribble and SDK Spriter for the Wii U; and PICROSS e7 and Mercenaries Saga 3 for the Nintendo 3DS.
See all the new content, sales and games below.
