It is time again -- oh time -- yes time -- the time -- it is again you see -- for the Nintendo Weekly Download Report!

Instructions for Singing and Dancing to the Nintendo Weekly Download Report Song



(1) Stand on your desk and sing that loudly as you read it, lifting first your left foot, and shaking it twice for "It's time again" -- and then your right foot, shaking it twice for "oh time" -- lifting the other leg for each section until you get to the end, and then turn around and shake your bum at your nearest co-worker for "the Nintendo Weekly Download Report! "

(2) Now repeat the process as many times as is necessary to deliver the news to each and every person in the room individually!




Nintendo eShop

Commando: Steel Disaster
A military group is being attacked by some of its own war machines. It's up to a commando and vehicle specialist code-named Storm to stop this terrorist threat. (For Nintendo 3DS / Nintendo DSi)

New Super Mario Bros. 2 - Warp Cannon Course Video
To give players a special look at some of the courses in New Super Mario Bros. 2, a series of videos are being released in the Nintendo eShop. The second video highlighting one of the Warp Cannon courses is now available. When Mario gets blasted from a huge cannon in this special course, he sprints automatically toward the goal. In order to succeed, all players need to do is jump. Sounds easy, right? (For Nintendo 3DS)

REAL BOUT FATAL FURY SPECIAL
Originally released in 1997, this fighting game is the sixth installment in the Fatal Fury series. With a system based on previous games in the series, the game introduced a more evolved two-line battle, improved the power gauge system and abolished the ring out system. These and other changes allow for greater strategic diversity. In addition to the 15 characters featured in previous games (Excluding Geese), this game includes Tung Fu Rue, Cheng Sinzan, Laurence Blood and Wolfgang Krauser for a roster of 19 characters, all truly suited to the name Special. They’ll duke it out here to see who will come out on top as the strongest. (For Nintendo 3DS)

Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
Mario faces off against his evil rival Wario in this week's featured "Month of Mario" game. Starting today through Wednesday, Aug. 15, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins is available at a discounted price of $2.99. (For Nintendo 3DS)

Touch Battle Tank 3D
In Touch Battle Tank 3D, it’s you on a solo mission against a nearly unstoppable army of killer tanks. Your strategy – keep the action going and the shells flying! Command either a powerfully armored engine of destruction or a light, agile hit-and-run variety of menacing machines capable of unleashing incredible firepower!

The pick up and play ease allows you to use the Circle Pad to pilot your 3D tank and the Touch Screen to take aim in red-hot combat action! Skillfully charge through the multiple battle stages as you face increasing weaponry and constant bombardment. The enemies just keep getting bigger and more determined to crush you. Show them all that when the dust settles, you will be victorious and own the medals to prove it! (For Nintendo 3DS)
