Nintendo Download Highlights New Digital
Content for Nintendo Systems
– June 4, 2015
This week’s Nintendo Download includes
the following featured content:
- Nintendo eShop on Wii U
- Adventures of Pip – Adventures
of Pip revitalizes the classic side-scrolling action platform
genre. Digital underdog Pip proves that you can’t judge a hero by his
size. During the game, Pip gains the ability to grow by absorbing
pixels from his fallen foes, but Pip learns bigger is not always
better. Click here to view a trailer for the game.
- Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS
- Lord of Magna: Maiden Heaven
– Bowl over as many enemies as possible with a single strike in this
new strategy RPG from the producer of Story of Seasons and Rune
Factory. The unique “bowling” battle mechanic requires lining up
melee, ranged and magical attacks so frontline enemies are knocked into
others for maximum collateral damage. Click here
to view a trailer for the game.
- Virtual Console on Wii U
- Pac-Attack – PAC-MAN
makes an appearance outside of his familiar maze environment in Pac-Attack,
a fun and quirky Super NES puzzle game. Keep your screen clear of
falling blocks and ghosts by lining them up horizontally. Pac-Attack
includes three game modes to choose from: 1P Normal, 2P Versus and the
challenging 1P Puzzle.
- New Splatoon Update
- Kicking off a steady stream of free content additions
throughout the summer, Splatoon has a new
weapon and map: the nostalgia-packed N-Zap ’85 rapid-fire shooter and
the Port Mackerel map, both available now. The N-ZAP ’85 is a shooter
with excellent ink efficiency and rapid-fire capability. Its attack
power isn’t all that, but it’s fabulous at quickly charging up the
Echolocator special weapon. Combined with Splat Bombs, this set caters
to fighters who like to cover a lot of ground in battle. For more

The Nintendo eShop is a cash-based service that features a wide variety
of content, including new and classic games, applications and demos.

purchasing a Nintendo eShop Card at a retail store and entering the
code from the card. All funds from one card must be loaded in the
Nintendo eShop on either Wii U or the Nintendo 3DS family of systems,
but can be used in either Nintendo eShop if the systems are linked to a
single Nintendo Network account.
The Wii Shop Channel offers games and applications and uses Wii Points
