Nintendo are holding a spring sale on the Nintendo eShop, and they are offering multiple games at cheaper prices as a result- while the drops themselves are not as drastic or dramatic as are often seen during Steam or PSN sales, the fact that Nintendo rarely drops prices on its games means that these prices may represent some of the better deals you are likely to get on these games.
The sale is applicable to 3DS and Wii U games each, and also ties into Nintendo’s newly launched MyNintendo promotion- by buying games from the eShop, you can accumulate more points on MyNintendo, and use them to redeem further free games.
