Activities:

  • Fire Emblem Heroes
    • Choose a Special Hero for Your Army – Before the Fire Emblem Heroes mobile game launched, a Choose Your Legends event was held to determine the most popular Fire Emblem characters. Now special versions of the four winning Heroes can be summoned in game. Plus, to thank fans for their participation, we’re letting them pick whichever one of these four Special Heroes they like best for FREE (without using Orbs)! The one chosen will be summoned as a five-star Hero. Then, players can use Orbs for a chance to summon the other three Heroes. But act fast – this event ends Sept. 14 at 11:59 p.m. PT.
    • Voting Gauntlet – The top eight finishers from the Choose Your Legends event are going head-to-head. Get in on the action before it ends on Sept. 5 at 8:59 p.m. PT.
  • My Nintendo Rewards
    • Celebrate a month full of Pokémon games with new My Nintendo rewards. On Sept. 22, the fast-paced fighting game Pokkén Tournament DX lands on the Nintendo Switch console. On that same day, two of the most beloved Pokémon games of all time, Pokémon Gold Version and Pokémon Silver Version, arrive on the Virtual Console service for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. To help celebrate, My Nintendo is offering some great, themed Pokémon rewards. Redeem your points now and get the new September calendar to help you prepare for the big day.

Also new this week:

In addition to video games available at retail stores, Nintendo also offers a variety of content that people can download directly to their systems. Nintendo adds new games weekly to Nintendo eShop on the Nintendo Switch console, the Wii U console and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.

Nintendo eShop is a cash-based service that features a wide variety of content, including new and classic games, applications and demos. Users can add money to their account balances by using a credit card or purchasing a Nintendo eShop Card at a retail store and entering the code from the card. All funds from one card must be loaded in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch, Wii U or the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, but can be used in any Nintendo eShop if the systems are linked to a single Nintendo Account.

Customers in the U.S. and Canada ages 18 and older can also link a PayPal account to their Nintendo Account to purchase digital games and content for the Nintendo Switch system both on-device and from the Nintendo website. Once the accounts are linked, users may also use PayPal as a payment option when buying digital content for the Wii U or Nintendo 3DS family systems from the Nintendo website.

The Wii Shop Channel offers games and applications and uses Wii Points, which can be purchased via the Wii Shop Channel.

Remember that Nintendo Switch, Wii U, Wii, New Nintendo 3DS, New Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL, and Nintendo 2DS feature parental controls that let adults manage some of the content their children can access. Nintendo 3DS players who register a Nintendo Network ID gain access to free-to-start games and free game demos from Nintendo eShop, and also get the latest news and information direct from Nintendo.
