With the virtual shop opening its doors next week (7th of June), Nintendo is sure to give us information about it. First up is Nitendo of Japan who has revealed the games and prices for its launch. Some of us made predictions about prices here and here (that I know of), let's see how they compare. Prices use the new Nintendo cards. Update: Both Nintnedo of America and Europe have given little updates on their respective updates, but no detailed information was given.

no i think that's just means that the trailers for 3ds games can be viewed on the 3ds

Prices are in Yen, not points.

True, it slip by from andriasang, fixing.

Guessing they will be the same prices for America and Europe; 100 Yen = 1 Euro = 1 Dollar.

I believe that too, but the prices in real money leave space for promotions and discounts, which is obviously a good thing.

Is this why they are going for real currency instead of points? Have they stated it somewhere? Still think it's the same just a different way to call it, it depends on how you buy the points online (instead of the cards). Talking about discounts, I've been able to get point cards at half the price... so also got promotions that way :P

I'm interested if someone can explain the DSi to 3DS transfer?

Finally! That was the info I waited for!

I think I'll be getting Kirby and Super Mario Land. Maybe also Rockman... not sure yet.

Hopefully NoA pitches Link's Awakening DX

More updates from official NoE and NoA press releases'

Both say that the free update will give them access to a variety of new content, including Pokédex™ 3D and Excitebike™ re-mastered in 3D (free download until July 7).

But NoE goes into it's Virtual Console saying they will be Game Boy games: Super Mario Land, Alleyway and Tennis. And that new content will be added to Nintendo eShop every Thursday.
