Kirby's Pinball Land heads to European eShop
Posted 23 Jul 2012 at 19:12 by Aaron Clegg
Another week, another wealth of new downloads, and once again the games are spread across all of Nintendo's shop channels.
The most high-profile new release is Nintendo's 1993 Game Boy classic Kirby's Pinball Land. Also hitting the eShop is popular mobile RPG Planet Crashers.
There are a couple more DSiWare games, while WiiWare will house on-rails shooter Horizon Riders, which seems to have taken an age to release over here. It is notable for being curiously compatible with the Wii Balance Board.
Trailers are as usual viewable below.
