Greatest Nintendo 3DS eShop Exclusive Games

Since its release in 2011, the Nintendo 3DS has become home to some of the most memorable and enjoyable gaming experiences in recent memory. With the help of the eShop – Nintendo’s online store for buying digital games – the handheld has amassed an incredible library of titles that can be played on the go or on a big screen via the 3DS’s docking station.

But which 3DS eShop exclusives are the best? Here, we’ve rounded up some of the greatest games you can only find on Nintendo’s digital storefront.

1. BoxBoy!

This charming platformer from HAL Laboratory (the developers behind the Kirby series) has players taking control of a small, square character named Qbby as he solves puzzles using his unique ability to create boxes out of his own body. It sounds weird, but it works incredibly well – the game’s 180-plus levels are packed with clever challenges that require players to think outside the box (pun intended) to progress. The sequel, BoxBoxBoy!, is also available on the eShop, and is just as delightful as the original.

2. Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword

Sakura Samurai is a game that calls to mind classic titles like Zelda and Okami, but with its own distinct personality. Players take on the role of a young samurai who must travel the land, fighting enemies and honing his sword skills. The combat is fast-paced and satisfying, and the game’s art style is gorgeous, with bright colors and expressive characters that pop off the screen. Sakura Samurai is a hidden gem that deserves more attention than it got when it was originally released.

3. Pushmo

This inventive puzzle game from Intelligent Systems (the team behind Fire Emblem and Paper Mario) has players pushing and pulling blocks to create a path to the top of a tower. Each level is basically a giant puzzle, with plenty of twists and turns that require careful planning to solve. Pushmo also has a built-in level editor that lets players create and share their own levels, which adds even more replay value to an already-great game.

4. Dillon’s Rolling Western

Dillon’s Rolling Western is a tower defense game with a twist – instead of just placing turrets on a map, players take control of a armadillo named Dillon who must roll around and fend off waves of enemies with his trusty pickaxe. It’s a unique and charming concept, with fun gameplay that rewards quick reflexes and strategic thinking. Plus, Dillon is just plain adorable.

5. Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball

Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball is a quirky sports game that puts players in the shoes of a struggling athlete who must sell items to earn enough money to feed his family. It’s an odd premise, but it works surprisingly well – the game combines baseball mini-games with RPG elements and a genuinely touching story about family and perseverance.

Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball is a great reminder that sports games don’t have to be all about winning – sometimes it’s the journey that matters most.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
