Nintendo Download – Jan. 5th 2017
Nintendo has a lot of stuff coming in 2017 for the Nintendo Switch and 3DS, but they are slowly adding content to the E-Shop for all platforms. Today’s update includes the N64 Classic ‘Pokemon Snap’ as the major release for the week, as the game is infamous for offering a clever mix of photography and light gun action using the Pokemon IP.
The rest of the E-Shop Line up for this week can be found below and it contains games across the Wii U and 3DS. If you have My Nintendo, you can take advantage of some discounts for a few Virtual Console games as well.
- Virtual Console on Wii U
- Pokémon Snap – The Nintendo 64 cult classic is now on the Wii U console! Travel to Pokémon Island to embark on a safari and take the best possible in-game photographs of 63 different Pokémon. The island has many types of climates and environments to explore, along with secret activities and hidden passages to discover. Some of the Pokémon can be a little shy and won’t pose for the camera unless you tease them with special items. After you’re done, submit one picture of each Pokémon to Professor Oak, and he’ll judge it based on size, pose, technique and number of Pokémon captured. Can you snap the perfect shot?
