Hot off the heels of some major announcements (Xenoblade Chronicles dated! The Last Story announced!), Nintendo has added their tower defense/brawler hybrid Dillon’s Rolling Western to the 3DS eShop.

You can learn more about it (and the rest of this week’s new downloadable games) right here:

Dillon’s Rolling Western (3DS eShop) – Roll, build and fight as you defend the villages of the Wild West from an invasion of earthly proportions. Protect the innocent and live to tell the tale in this unique combination of tower-defense strategy and character-driven action.

2 Fast 4 Gnomz (WiiWare) – Four brave gnomes venture on a journey so epic, they don’t even know where they’re going. Join Bumb, Berzerk, Speedster and Uncle Time as they run, fly, bounce, glide and break their way through the magical lands of Gnomia.

Hulu Plus coming to 3DS, Wii; more features announced for 3DS

Posted on October 24, 2011 by Nicole Kline

Nintendo has made a big, if unsurprising, announcement: Hulu Plus is coming to the 3DS and the Wii. Hulu Plus – which costs $7.99 a month – is host to dozens of current and popular seasons of television shows from all the major channels.

In addition, Nintendo also announced some major additions to the 3DS. 3DS owners will now be able to record up to 10 minutes of 3D videos, opening up venues for all manner of creative endeavors – including 3D stop-motion animation videos. There are also new musical artists coming to Nintendo Video, including Foster the People’s “Don’t Stop (Color on the Walls),” as well as a new animated 3D video from Dreamworks called “Thriller” which features characters from Shrek. New puzzles will also be available in the Mii Plaza, and a new dungeon added to Find Mii.

Reggie Fils-Aime, President of Nintendo of America, said, “Nintendo 3DS continues to evolve with great new features and functions designed to reinforce its position as a premiere entertainment device. All of these features, in addition to great upcoming games like Pokémon Rumble Blast on October 24, Super Mario 3D Land on November 13 and Mario Kart 7 on December 4, make Nintendo 3DS a smart gift option this holiday season.”

Still want more? Nintendo also announced four new games – Freakyforms, Pushmo, Swapnote, and Dillon’s Rolling Western. The system update to the 3DS will be happening at the end of November, and Hulu Plus will be coming “soon.” Hit the jump for a complete description of the four new games. (more…)
