It’s Monday and in Europe that means it’s time to check out what’s hitting the Nintendo eShop this week. There’s plenty on offer across the 3DS and Wii U, including the debut of super-popular Minecraft on Wii U, some Mario platforming on the Virtual Console, and an absolutely huge list of discounts.

Check out the full list below and let us know which games will be making their way into your download queue this week.

Wii U eShop

  • Minecraft: Wii U Edition (Microsoft Studios, €29.99 / £19.99) – the blocky, world-building sandbox phenomenon comes to Nintendo for the first time, bundled with six DLC packs and more available to buy separately. Despite the lack of inventory management on the GamePad it will include USB keyboard and voice chat support.
  • Ascent of Kings (Nostatic Software, €1.99 / £1.49) – this is a platforming adventure which sees a young brother set off to become a King.
  • Island Flight Simulator (Joindots, €7.99 / £5.99) – a flight-sim with 12 islands to travel between and a range of missions, including illegal deliveries for ‘shifty clients’.
  • Job the Leprechaun (Herrero Games, €2.99 / £2.69) – an oddly-named retro platformer with single-screen stages in which you collect clovers, find the door and dodge enemies.

Wii U Virtual Console

  • Mario Tennis (Nintendo, €9.99 / £8.99) – widely considered as the first true Mario Tennis title, this game originally hit the N64 in 2000 and was positively received at the time for its simple charm. Fun fact: it was also Waluigi’s debut game.
  • New Super Mario Bros. (Nintendo, €9.99 / £8.99) – this was the first in the “new” series of Mario platformers, after a fourteen year break between side-scrolling adventures. It hit the DS in 2006, spawning a fresh visual style that would continue with further “new” installments on the Wii, 3DS and Wii U. It also introduced the Mega Mushroom.
  • Onimusha Tactics (Capcom, €6.99 / £6.29) – this Game Boy Advance title was released in 2003, and was the first version of the tactical RPG to hit a Nintendo platform. It’s based on the popular Onimusha action series and takes place on a grid-based battlefield where the player has to defeat opposing forces in a turn-based conflict.
