Nintendo of America’s New eShop Indie Website

Nintendo of America has launched a new eShop Indie website, which has information and links on notable games, the process for buying downloads, where to buy eShop funds and plenty of attractive artwork.

Nintendo of America's New eShop Indie Website

 

Here is what Nintendo of America had to say:

At this stage the featured games — aside from NES Remix — are mostly for the 3DS and are a mix of current and upcoming releases, with Unepic also sneaking in to represent the Wii U.

We’d hope that web portals like these — an equivalent in Europe and other territories will hopefully arrive — lay the groundwork for future connectivity between the stores and Nintendo Network IDs. Nintendo has stated that it’s looking to improve the access we have to its content, so options to use websites such as this to buy a game — with our system of choice automatically downloading the product in standby mode — while away from our hardware would be most welcome. As a source of information this seems like a solid start, however, even if we’d substitute the Mario Party: Island Tour 3DS graphic at the top for an eShop-only game.

What did you think?
