Akemashite Omedetō, or Happy New Year to all of you out there who don’t speak Japanese! 2013 is upon us and even though Nintendo has a somewhat limited eShop update this week, one of the greatest titles of all time is now available on the Nintendo 3DS eShop! Here’s a look at everything for this week:

3DS

Virtual Console
Super Mario Bros. 3 (Famicom) – 500 yen

Video Content and eShop Sales

As I mentioned above, this is really a minimal update for the eShop in Japan seeing as many people are enjoying the New Year’s holiday with their families. This still didn’t stop Nintendo from delivering a short gameplay video for Super Mario Bros. 3 and for implementing a number of sales on the eShop this week. As we reported last week, three titles are now discounted on the eShop – Denpan Ningen no RPG 2 for 700 yen (from 1,000 yen), Rhythm Hunter: HarmoKnight is now 1,300 yen (from 1,800 yen), and 3D Classics Kirby’s Adventure is 400 yen (from 600 yen). This particular sale will run until January 6 at 11:59 p.m. Pokédex 3D Pro is also on sale in Japan until January 8 at 11:59 p.m. for 1,200 yen (from 1,500 yen).

Arc System Works is also getting into the mix with a sale on a few of their titles as well. Here is a list of the titles for sale:
