Check out to see what you might be getting if you download some retail 3DS games.

Earlier this week, Nintendo of America announced plans to reward those who buy one of their upcoming 3DS releases digitally with a copy of Donkey Kong: Original Edition, which is modeled after the arcade version of the game. It was previously available on a limited edition Wii in Europe.

Check below for video of the Japanese version of the game, which was given out as a reward for downloading retail games off of the eShop in Japan earlier this year.

Thanks for the video. I didn't realize that this was the NES DK game.  For some reason I thought it was a modified GameCube version of the game.
Now I'm less interested in it, but will still get it on my wife's 3DS as I'm buying CrossWords Plus digitally for it.
