Mega Man 3 and a HarmoKnight demo aside, most everything else comes out next Tuesday.
Today's Nintendo Downloads ask us to look forward to...the future. Well, maybe the past, too. Is 200X some weird past of the future? Or maybe the future past...Anyways, the reason is the eShop's two biggest releases are actually coming out next week. Lego City: Undercover is due out March 18, and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is coming on March 19 for the 3DS and Wii U. Not only that, Need for Speed Most Wanted (Wii U) and The Croods: Prehistoric Party! (3DS, Wii U) are due March 19, as well! Mega Man 3 is out today on the 3DS though, and warps players back, forward, or sideways to 200X. If demos are the flavor you savor, HarmoKnight for the 3DS and Chasing Aurora on the Wii U are both available. And did you think I forgot DSiWare? Of course not! Goony and Forgotten Legions are ripe for the picking. One last thing! Ketzal's Corridors is on sale for $4.99!

3DS Virtual Console:
Reading the plot synopsis for Mega Man 3, I'm pretty relieved that Dr. Wily has seen the Light, as in Dr. Light. Just one look and he knew that being a good guy could be pretty baller. So the doctors unite, and rope in Mega Man to gather the parts to build a monstrous, peacekeeping robot. A gesture that says, "Sorry, MM, but you're just not good enough." Rude of Dr. Light, for sure, but the guy already sends his homemade son into battle, so it's hardly unexpected. To cope, Mega Man brings along his dog, Rush, who transforms into a ton of stuff and is likely the coolest dog ever. Also, in his continued efforts to validate himself to his "father", Mega Man slides along the ground now. I'm sure Light will notice.
DSiWare Games:

Ready to command an army? How about...from the side? That's a pretty big wrench I threw in there, but Forgotten Legions is indeed a side-scrolling affair. It's also a strategy game!
