What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Games cards roll the dice. Sometimes the dice roll you.

The site, in 2011

Nintendo's digital shop for downloadable games, demos and apps, which opened on the Nintendo 3DS in June 2011.

It took over from the Wii Shop Channel and DSi Shop. Nintendo closed the 3DS and Wii U stores in March 2023, so it now serves only the Switch and Switch 2.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
