Nintendo Download: Mario Tennis and more

nintendoeshop-header

Grab your rackets… Mario Tennis is now available to download from the Wii U eShop. Developed by Camelot, the Nintendo 64 classic featured the debut of Waluigi, Luigi’s evil doppelganger.

The rest of this week’s Nintendo Download includes a ton of micro-sized Wii U games…

  • Santa Factory is a Christmas-in-July side-scrolling platformer.
  • Neon Battle looks like Pong in a circular playing field.
  • Land It Rocket lets you control a side-scrolling rocket that needs to avoid missiles and other obstacles.
  • Keytari: 8-Bit Music Maker turns your Wii U GamePad into a keytar.
  • Don’t Crash is an overhead racing game.
  • Dare Up Adrenaline is a wingsuit simulator.
  • Asteroid Quarry asks players to mine the asteroids instead of avoiding them.

More information on all of these titles can be found after the break.

Wii U eShop

Mario Tennis – The Mushroom Kingdom’s finest hit the court in this wild multiplayer tennis game from Camelot, the talented developers behind the Golden Sun and Mario Golf games. Put some power and spin into your shots to claim victory on your own, or go head to head with up to three friends who also have the game in multiple modes.

Santa Factory – On his way to deliver the Christmas presents on Christmas Eve, there was a hole in the Christmas Santa sack, so the Christmas presents were scattered all over the earth. Santa was discouraged and asked Rudolf to get the scattered presents.

Neon Battle – Maneuver your way around the circular battlefield to victory in Neon Battle! Smash your opponent out of the way and yell obscenities at them without the threat of assault charges! Well, that’s assuming you keep it in the game, with four different game modes to choose from and a selection of powerups, it’s arguably more fun than smashing someone in real life, and definitely more fun than attending court hearings!

Land It Rocket – In this game your goal is to land your rocket safely, but watch out the world is full of danger like mines, lasers and turrets. Besides the main levels you can put your skills to the test in Endless mode. Earn 3-star rating by completing each 28 levels in the shortest possible time.

Keytari: 8-Bit Music Maker – Do you LOVE 8-bit music from classic video games? Prepare to create your own! Keytari: 8-bit Music Maker will transform your Wii U GamePad into an 8-bit jamming machine!

Don’t Crash – Don’t Crash. This is the only rule of the game. Race against another car, press A button to change lanes, and avoid a crash at all costs. Addictive and nerve-wracking, how many rounds can you beat?

Dare Up Adrenaline – Feel the adrenaline of flying with a wingsuit through narrow passages, dangerous cliffs, and down hills full of trees and rocks that will take your gaming experience to a whole new level!

Asteroid Quarry – Take to the heavens and mine the ore in the asteroids. This may seem like a simple task, however, you need to be wary. As with all new frontiers there are ones who take advantage of unprotected areas. These pirates are in all areas and they are looking for the thrill of the hunt and you as the prey.
