Digital store for 3DS
The Nintendo eShop is the digital store for Nintendo 3DS. Content includes original 3D games, classic titles remastered in 3D, Virtual Console games, and more than 350 Nintendo DSiWare games. You can also view video game trailers, screenshots, and info for downloadable and retail games. eShop was first included with a system update in North America on June 6, 2011, and in Japan on June 7.

Unfortunately, this pretty good news comes off the heels of some pretty bad news: La Mulana, the retro indie Metroidvania-adventure-platformer that Nicalis intended to publish on WiiWare, has been canceled, though a self-published PC release is still in the works by the developer, and you can still download the original freeware release.
Tiny Cartridge reports that Nicalis’s next eShop game (and first Wii U game!) is Aban Hawkins & the 1001 Spikes, an enhanced remake of an Xbox Live game by JPN 8Bits Fanatics. 1001 Spikes is a retro-styled Platform Hell side-scroller that surprises you with death! All the time! The trailer for the original XBL game is attached. By the way, have you seen Nicalis's amazing home page?
