EU Nintendo eShop releases for 23rd June 2016
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and Mighty No.9 hit the Nintendo eShop this week.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and Mighty No.9 hit the Nintendo eShop this week.
After last week’s threadbare line-up the Nintendo eShop returns to being something worth visiting with a number of compelling releases. The big one is the long-awaited arrival of Mighty No.9. Much maligned but the early word is that it’s actually pretty good.
This week also sees the release of Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE, a Shin Megami Tensei and Fire Emblem mash-up that looks entirely bonkers. It won’t be to everyone’s taste but developers Atlus deserve full-marks for trying.
Elsewhere, The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask comes to Wii U Virtual Console, although if you are a 3DS owner we recommend the excellent remastered edition over this version. And former enemies turned lovers go running and jumping together in Mario & Sonic at the 2016 Rio Olympics Games. You can check out a demo on 3DS.
Here’s the full release list.

We have a favour to ask
Thumbsticks has a couple of main aims. We want to write interesting articles and cover games that most outlets won't, and we want to give opportunities to new writers and new voices. But it's hard to do that in the current financial climate. If you'd like to help us fund these aims, you could always buy the team a cup of coffee.
