This Thursday, we'll get another basket of 3DS goodies from Nintendo in the form of new downloadable content on the eShop.

This week's most noteworthy release is Gamelion's Speedx 3D, a port of the Bronze Award-winning Android game from Bytestorm.

While the jump from Android to 3DS may seem like an odd move at first, it does make sense, for the 3DS's built-in accelerometer is perfectly suited to a game like Speedx 3D.

Hopeful

After last month's port of Castlevania: the Adventure to 3DS, another memorable Game Boy title, The Sword of Hope II, is getting the same treatment.

The release of Kemco's RPG The Sword of Hope II this Thursday on the 3DS eShop will mark the first time it's been available in Europe.

Other games of note coming out this Thursday on the eShop include The Incredible Barbazan: Raging Bull, a game about the world's worst magician; 90's Pool, a realistic pool simulator with versus modes and trick shots; and 101 Pinball World, a fast-paced pinball game with an objectives-based twist.
