Super Mario Bros. 3 warps onto the eShop in Europe this week and you won’t need a Power Glove to pick it up – just a 3DS or Wii U. Both systems receive the classic NES platformer on Boxing Day, and there’s a “week-long special offer” to look out for, according to Nintendo of Europe. There’s no word on a price just yet.
There’s also no word from Nintendo of America on an arrival across the coast, so Super Mario Bros. 3 could join The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Pastin the transatlantic waiting room. That said, back in August, the big N announced it was due sometime this year.
The game features multiplayer on both Wii U and 3DS. The Wii U version supports local multiplayer, while the 3DS version uses download play, meaning only one player has to purchase the game for two people to play across two systems. Neither version supports online multiplayer.
