Dig up fossils and then fight on your 3DS...or something...
The latest entry into the Fossil Fighters series (known as Kaseki Horider or Fossil Diggers) is set to arrive this week on the Nintendo 3DS eShop. The series, which is published and developed by Nintendo (and some other collaborative devs) started out on the DS in 2008. While I’m not really well versed in the series, the Mugen Gear (Infinite Gear) looks to offer a variety of gameplay allowing players to drive vehicles, uncover fossils with the touchscreen and fight dinosaurs. Other than this big release from Nintendo, the eShop offerings are a bit on the tame side this week. There are, however, six new Virtual Console games spread across both the Wii U and 3DS so lovers of old school, semi-obscure games are in luck. Well, if you have a Japanese system that is! At any rate, be sure to check out the list below for a complete look at the releases this week!
