The former retail game from Ignition and Renegade Kid is going the way of Order Up.

Planet Crashers 3D, from Ignition and Renegade Kid, is eschewing its retail aspirations and heading directly to the 3DS eShop in North America on July 26 for $10.

Originally set for a March 2012 retail release, Planet Crashers 3D, much like Ignition's Order Up!, was delayed and shifted to the eShop. While Order Up! actually did come out on cartridge in Europe, Planet Crashers 3D has yet to be released in any region.

From Mutant Mudds developer Renegade Kid, the game is a light RPG with turn-based battles, a variety of dungeons, and fully customizable characters. There is also apparently a two-player mode according to the  game's page on Nintendo's website. Read our preview to learn more.

There is currently no word on a release in another region.

Wow! I love this $10 price point, I really don't think I'll be able to resist a "light RPG" at that price point!

Visually, it looks pretty good.  Kind of Super Mario Galaxy with Wind Waker cel-shading.  The trailer I saw didn't show show off the RPG elements.

yea, had this ordered on amazon from the end of 2011.
$30 for the cart, is it still coming in cart form?, should i cancel my cart order?

The Nintendo UK website says that this is out next week for Europe as well, it will cost £9/€10, so that's great! It also says that it connects online in some form, is this true? Because if it has online multiplayer, I will buy it at launch!
