With all eyes on Nintendo’s reveal of the Wii U price and release date for North America this morning, a gem like Endgame Studios’ Fractured Soul for the 3DS eShop might get lost in the shuffle, but not here. A side-scrolling action-platformer with a twist, Fractured Soul utilizes both screens of the 3DS, allowing players to shift between the two dimensions represented on the fly. With the differing resolutions of the screens that’s not something many developers have dared to do, but here were are. Fractured Soul is a bit pricey at $11.99, but it’s got 30 levels of play across five different zones and dual-screen boss fights, so it should be worth your while. And hey, if that doesn’t float your boat there’s always Bookstore Dream! Actually I’ve always wanted to work in a bookstore, so it’s more exciting than I make it sound.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"5942913","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"uncategorized","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"uncategorized","TAGS":"nintendo","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); Who needs the Wii U?
