‘Dr Mario’ makes a digital appearance on the 3DS (3DS)

This weeks selection of Nintendo downloads will have you scratching your head and testing logic. A free trial of ‘Pyramids’ will test your mettle, while tactical brains are needed to assist the newly promoted ‘Dr. Mario’…considering he’s jumped from plumber to M.D. in a suspiciously short space of time…

 Put your logic skills to the test in a free Nintendo 3DS demo of Pyramids, available to download from the Nintendo eShop this week. Get a taster of this puzzle based platformer if you have not already downloaded the full version of the game from the Nintendo eShop yet. It will challenge you to escape a series of pyramids filled with hidden dangers, terrifying monsters and treacherous traps while holding onto your loot. Your dexterity and ingenuity will be well and truly put the test in this tricky puzzler!

Also available on Nintendo 3DS this week is Dr. Mario™, which brings you germs you’ll love to catch! At Mushroom Kingdom Hospital it’s your job to stop the contagious viruses that are running amok. In this Game Boy classic you must eradicate all the viruses in the bottle by spinning and lining up the coloured vitamin capsules as they fall. Rack up huge combos by clearing as many lines of viruses as possible!

What’s more, you’ll need to keep your eyes peeled in Aahh! Spot the Difference on Nintendo DSiWare this week. Challenge yourself to complete 40 testing levels in four unique scenarios by spotting the differences between the upper and lower screens.  

Check out all the other latest offerings which are available for download this Thursday via Nintendo eShop, Nintendo DSi Shop and the Wii Shop Channel.
