A GBAtemp user was running a weekly scan of Nintendo’s CDN, which is the server where Nintendo hosts eShop titles, and noticed that the ID’s of the European versions of both Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario Land 3D were recently added to it. This means that, supposedly, Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D Land will join New Super Mario Bros. 2 as downloadable titles from the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS.
Thanks, Brandon.
Wow!! Thats amazing.
They say:Next gen consoles must have downloadable games.Then Nintendo did that
Amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazziing.From lil’ rob himself.
No, it isn’t. It’s common sense.
ONLY if the physical copies are sold out.
About fucking time!! Way more people would buy their game if they are downloadable!! I hate cartridges and I am not alone!
That would be raw. Too bad I already have it though, I’d have downloaded it maybe.
Me too!
That meens that you can download the hole games?
I still don’t support digital but if some people likes it…
Digital is better.
Both are good
No, gay. Are you 6?
Retail is better. I want my fucking box. Like every respected gamer do.
Ahhh, but what happens if you lose the game? Hmmmmm?
If you lose it, you’ll never get it back. If you download digital, you’ll never lose it as it’ll always be with you… Forever… And ever… And ever… And ever…
Unless you delete it, but you can always re-download it to get it back.
Er actually you can lose the digital copy if your 3DS breaks, remember you can’t simply just pop the SD card in the new 3DS without doing a transfer and you need the old 3DS in order to do it.
And good luck trying to get Nintendo to help you with that.
unless their servers go down. unless nintendo dies. unless 3ds dies. granted there’s a very low chance of any of these to happen, but that’s a concern.
i agree with you . the only way i will ever even be a tiny bit tempted into buying a full digital game instead of retail is if it cost’s £20 instead of £30 .
NSMB2 is £40 to download in UK and £30 in the shop.
you want me to pay more for something that hasent been manufactured and hasent gone through a stores profits ?????
no sense made . no incentive .
i just hope they have sales on those games
Good option for people who still dont have it, Sleep Mode downloading is genius.
Still hoping for some DLC for these 2 games :(
mario kart 7 and SM3DL are just crying out for DLC i could not agree with you more.
imagine a new level pck for 3d land every 2 months ?? *mouth waters*
That’s a deeply impractical request. First of all to develop consistently high quality levels every 2 months is near impossible, even for Nintendo, second that would hog resources way too much for other game development.
agreed. maybe just some DLC then. i know was aiming too high. 3d land didnt get made in a day after all . neither did mk7.
i am happy with both games. but they just seem perfect for DLC .
Not every two months. I’d say 8 NEW worlds at max.
agreed. looking back my comment was slightly BS . thx .
I’ll probably buy Mario Kart 7 again because of this. It would be cool to always have it with me on the home screen when I need it instead of switching cartridges and getting it mixed up with my friend’s games.
I’m fine with my physical copy of 3D land thank you very much :).
They said that they were going to try to enable every game to be available digitally…

lol thats funny because i just barely lost my copy of mario 3d land. if it does come to the eshop, i’ll definitely download it
We need more new games!!
Very cool.
Especially good news about MK7. That’s pretty much the definition of a game I’d like to be accessible at all times.

It’d be nice if they offered a free download if you had already purchased the games in question, I wouldn’t mind always having Mario Kart 7 on me.

ok im pretty sure someone already asked this but i bought the physical copy (dont like physical copies as much) of 3D Land, and if this is true do you think people with the physical copy who linked it with club nintendo will be able to get the digital version at no cost, being we already bought it?
…probably not :/

Question really is can the physical copies play against the digital copiess in wireless
I just noticed the tolfoomery regarding this website’s impending demise and, I must say, I believe Mr. Portnoy is panicking.a0 Ms. Mourey’s work has been exemplary and there is a niche being served.a0 Whilst, indeed, I do acknowledge that patience can equal death when it comes to a web-business, a far larger problem is oft megalomania.a0 To wit: attempting to create a Barstool franchise in many different cities could prove disastrous.a0 As could letting a talent like Jenna Mourey walk away . . .
