Try-before-you-buy comes to Nintendos latest handheld

This morning Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime revealed that select demos of both retail and downloadable games will be heading to the Nintendo eShop this year. This means you will be able to test-play the latest releases before committing to purchase them.

Nintendo has had a demo system in place for WiiWare and DSiWare but the offerings haven’t been so consistent. Hopefully this will change with the 3DS. We’ll have more news about this and other E3 announcements as we get them.
