Deal Details
Nintendo eShop has Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure (Nintendo 3DS Digital Download) on sale for $1.99.

Thanks to Community Member Shad0WeN for finding this deal.

Note: The ability to make purchases from the 3DS eShop will be closing down for good on March 27, 2023 (details). You can still access / download / play your already-purchased titles after that date (just won't be able to make new purchases any longer).

About this game:
  • From legendary Japanese developer Nihon Falcom (creators of the highly popular Ys game series), comes Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure. Get ready to embark on a monstrous adventure created by masters of the craft and brimming with everything that makes 3D platformers and Action-RPGs so great.
  • Gurumin 3D features Parin, a sassy, strong-willed and (surprisingly) heroic young girl who finds herself unexpectedly tossed into a battle between friendly Monsters and evil Phantoms. Learning of the fabled and mysterious Legendary Drill, a powerful weapon that she alone can wield, Parin sets out on an epic quest to save the world from the Phantoms, who are determined to destroy Monster Village and spread darkness across the land.
  • Parin must explore, run, swim, climb, leap, and drill through ruins, caves, snow-capped mountains, lush forests, and more to save her Monster pals and put a stop to the Phantoms' nefarious plans. Uncover rare parts to upgrade the Legendary Drill, imbue it with elemental powers, or use the drill in rare earth to restore lost power. Head back into town to buy, sell, and trade equipment, medals, junk taken from monsters and other objects. Equip Parin with upgradable outfits and headgear for new strengths and abilities, and learn how to perform dozens of unlockable attacks and special moves.
  • Gurumin 3D features tons of traps, puzzles, treasures and mini-games together with real-time rhythm-based combat, 35+ hours of playtime, 90+ items, unlockable difficulty levels, multiple endings, and fully upgradable weapons and gear. Voicing is by an all-star cast including Tara Strong from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Gurumin 3D is presented in dazzling 3D and with a rockin' soundtrack that will keep bobbing your head with the beat.

I suppose one could reply to every post on this site with, "but it's free if you steal it."
As a point of comparison, the DSi Shop shut down six years ago and still allows downloads of previously purchased software.
Yes, Nintendo has previously stated that you will still be able to download games from your purchased library "for the foreseeable future". How long that ends up being is anyone's guess.

Once it shuts down can you still download games you own?

This is also on sale on Steam and playable there. Would rather it on the 3ds for the portable but for those afraid about the shutdown and who have PC's. Discussion states it runs on steam deck though looks like keyboard controls might be in front, not sure how true as I don't have a steam deck myself.

I really liked this game on PSP. It was cool seeing it released on Steam, and I think it was completely free there for a period of time for whatever reason. IIRC kind of like an "early access" price of $0.

I like this game, but it wasn't made for the 3ds. There's lag when there are alot of enemies on screen, and the graphics look pretty bad. I've seen the pc version on youtube, and it's definitelybthe definitive version.

That said, it's definitely worth more than $2, I just wouldn't bother when theres a better version of the game on PC.

The English audio isn't bad, but its notable if you get the PC version you can easily copy & paste in the original Japanese audio files.
