Nintendo Download for July 7, 2016 – North America

Five lonely titles and more in today’s Nintendo Download! 

Following the mega-sized week, this week takes it easy on our wallets.  Only five titles were added today, with just a single game on the 3DS.  You can also check out some new themes and some new sales, though.  So let’s jump right in!

The lone wolf title on the 3DS this week is the SNES classic Legend of the Mystical Ninja.  It is an action adventure game where you will need to rescue the princess Yuki.  To do that, you will be battling some interesting characters in both 3D and 2D settings.  To rest and relax you can try your hand at some mini-games as well.  There are three new themes styled around The Legend of Dark Witch 2, so if that interests you, be sure to check those out.

The Wii U side also gets blessed with some virtual console games, but both of these are NES classics.  First up is Baseball Simulator 1000.  You can play as one of six teams in their race for the pennant.  If you get tired of the classic style play, you can spice up the game with invisible pitches, making your hits explode, and even knock down fielders!  Other NES game is Flying Dragon: The Secret Scroll.  This is an action game with six different fighting mechanics and types.  You need to be able to advance to the World Tournament and defend it from the legions of darkness.  Also available are Steel Lords and Tap Tap Arcade 2.

As always, you can check out the full list of all new releases, prices, discounts, and more below. Be sure to share your thoughts on this week’s downloads, and let us know if you plan on downloading any of them.
