Wii U eShop updates - 9/4/14 (North America)

Super Mario 3D World is $10 cheaper than usual until next Thursday

This is yet another busy week for the eShop. There are three new titles available, including two modern games and one classic SNES re-release, but that isn't the real story. The real story is the sheer number of discounts on Nintendo's own first-party titles. For the next week, you can download quite a few awesome games for significantly less than their usual prices. Details and videos after the break.
