Nintendo Download: Kingdom Hearts 3D demo, Marvel Pinball, more
Marvel Pinball 3D leads this week’s smattering of 3DS eShop releases. But shooting a virtual metal ball through tables based on Iron Man, Captain America, and the Fantastic Four doesn’t compare to this week’s biggest addition: a Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance demo.
Tongue-twisting titles aside, Nintendo also added a second demo to the 3DS eShop today, the Sega-published rhythm game Rhythm Thief & the Emperor’s Treasure.
In other news, Nintendo is jumping on the weekly bargain bandwagon with their “3DS eShop Game of the Weekend” promotion. The first title to get a temporary price cut is indie side-scroller VVVVVV, which will be available for $4.99 this weekend.

More information on all of these games can be found right here:
