Nintendo have released a list of this week’s eShop UK downloads for October 10th. As per usual this list only applies to gamers in the UK/Europe and does not mean these are available to download right now, you’ll have to wait until Thursday as it’s the day Nintendo updates the eShop.
Pokémon X & Y is the obvious highlight of the week for Nintendo fans so expect everyone to be playing this one next time you meet someone via Street Pass. It’s a little surprising to think that a Pokémon game has taken this long to arrive on the 3DS.
Pokémon X (Nintendo) (Available from October 10th)
3DS - €44.99/£39.99

There are a number of newly discovered Pokémon waiting to meet you. Gogoat is a Grass-type Pokémon so large it can carry people on its back, Sylveon is a newly discovered Evolution of Eevee, and there’s a mysterious Pokémon that’s connected in some way to Mewtwo.
