A new Humble Bundle has been launched for third-party Nintendo eShop games. The price of Humble Bundles are not limited so you can pay whatever you wan. However, the more you pay, the more you’re rewarded. There are three different tiers of rewards, in which you can check out below.

Thanks, gamelall123
I’m all for supporting game developers but I bought ASA the other day and I could’ve just waited until today to pay a dollar for it :'( haha
Looks like I’m finally gonna try Freedom Planet and Citizens of Earth.
payed the full 13 to have street fighter on my 3ds, already had freedom planet on wii um guess i own it 3 times now
You could always give it to someone you know who has a Wii U.
That’s what I’ll be doing with Shantae on Wii U and 3DS (as well as Retro City Rampage, since I already have a version of that game).
Wish this came to Europe I’d definitely donate a good bit since its for charity anyway
It is in Europe too. I got it myself
Is it? How do I do it here?
all i did was purchase it, it recognised me as being in the uk and the codes it provided were for europe only.
what u mean? just go to humble bundle and buy it
I already have ssfiv3ds, is darksiders worth the $13 or nah?
If you haven’t played Darksiders before, spending an extra $3 to try it should be worth it if a demo isn’t available. However I played it and got tired of it after a while. The combat is good but the platforming and puzzles got tiresome for me and made me move on to something else.
I got Darksiders and launch and I personally loved it.
It’s polarizing. Imagine a mix between Zelda (overworld and puzzle-solving), Prince of Persia (acrobatic platforming) and God of War (combo-based combat) with RPG-lite elements thrown to the mix.
I’m on the camp that found it to be less than the sum of its parts, but I’d say it’s worth it for 13 dollars. It’s a very peculiar game.
Thanks for the heads up. I already have Darksiders and SFIV, but not many of the others. Will surely get it.
I wouldn’t have expected Rhythm Thief to be in one of these bundle! :D Love the game so much I wouldn’t mind buying it again to gift it to someone.
i’ve never even heard of that one. What’s it like?
It’s a game with many different, but really fun, rhythm mini-games you play to progress the story. The game has really likable characters and a really fun story, and most importantly an absolutely amazing soundtrack (which is key in a great rhythm game). There’s a demo on the eShop you can try. If you like it, I highly recommend getting it.
I already have Shantae, so have a spare Wii U European code:
B0LGFBM053YQK6KK
And… taken, for anyone wondering.
also i’m not from Europe lol
i already had that on wii u too lol
I was lucky, it’s the only one of the digital-only titles I already have. It’s nice to add some more indies to the Nintendo collection.
freedom planet was cool for the brief amount of time I played it, when I got to the giant bird boss i just stopped after a bunch of tries, it got too frustrating for me lol
i got the bundle today and i gotta say affordable space adventures is waaaayyy cooler than i was expecting, i’m really feeling it so far
Incredible bundle, to say the least. Smartest investment I’ll make in the near future, to be sure.
That said, Nintendo is accepting the money on the developers’ behalf. I’m sure the money will go to said participating devs, but I do wish Nintendo chose a more transparent method and allowed for a separate “developer” part of the money-split.
neat. the only rythm game i really liked was that final fantasy one on the 3DS. I wish they’d release the Dragon Quest one in the US. Oh yeah, I guess I also liked Parrappa the Rappa lol
uh ^that comment was supposed to be for ggregz above lol
Great bundle, I wish they’d do this more often! I got the last one too.
Awesome. Humble Bundle os the greatest. I got the last Nintendo one too and one of the Star Wars ones. Well worth the money.
I’m surprised to see Street Fighter and Darksiders on there though. The last bundle was all indie titles.
i have shantaes curse for WII U code and Affordable Space adventures for WII U. can anyone trade me a rythm thief code for them?
Immediate purchase.
So THAT was the advantage to not buying Freedom Planet yet. Maybe, JUST maybe, the added games later this week will include Runbow…
OOOH PREDICTED IT!
