It seems that Nintendo has turned off some DSiWare games that were available in the 3DS eShop. Games taken from the digital store seem to apply only to North America, but that could change soon if European and Japanese eShops follow the same trend. It is reported that more than 250 titles have been removed from the list since January 1 and they all appear to be games that were released before mid-May 2011. There are, however, a handful of exceptions which are:
- Art Academy: first semester – September 2009
- Art Academy: second semester – September 2009
- Game & Watch: Donkey Kong Jr – April 2010
- Pinball Pulse: The Ancients Beckon – October 2009
- Sudoku (Electronic Arts) – October 2009
There has been no announcement from Nintendo or clarification as to why the above titles have not been played, but if you are thinking of purchasing any DSiWare games on the 3DS and are not in North America, we suggest that you get them sooner or later.
