(+) Yeah! (+)

I just got the Strecthmo dlc the other day. You have to play the tutorial puzzles (they start automatically when you open the game) and then the dialog to purchase the DLC will pop up at the end of them.

And you can buy the route DLC in Fates at the title screen I think. You only have to play a couple hours up to the route split to open up the dragon gate on the world map and buy the map DLC. Same thing with Awakening. You have to play a couple hours to open up the dragon gate option on the world map. In Echoes I think you just have to get to the world map, so just like the opening cutscenes and the first battle so maybe about half an hour or so.

I remember seeing an article pointing out that while the Layton vs. Ace Attorney DLC is free, you have to beat the game to access it. There might be some games with Spotpass features too, like I think Devil Survivor 2 had some demons via spotpass it rotated through.

Fantasy Life DLC probably has to be bought from within the game, but I don't know if you have to have already started it or not. It might just be there on the title screen.

oh and before I forget again I should say something about SD cards.

The 3ds documentation mentions that you can only use up to a 32 gb card. You can use a 64 gb card or higher, but you would need to download a partition manager program and reformat it to use FAT file format for the 3ds to be able to read it.

Though it might not be necessary, depending on how much software you have. You're not going to fill up a 64 gb card unless you have a lot of retail games (like you bought everything in the capcom and atlus sales), and you pretty much won't be able to fill up a 128 gb or higher card unless you hack the system. And there's a hard limit on the number of titles you can have downloaded at once anyway.

Also note that apparently using SD cards over 32 gb may negatively impact performance slightly in the menus and break system themes.

oh, regarding wii u actually i just checked my wishlist and i forgot that yeah there were a lot of other indie games even here, though very few weren't on pc or other consoles... still, wii u experience was probably pretty different to other releases so there's that. i wouldn't be too surprised if stuff like ziggurat, soul axiom, axiom verge, the trine ports, tengami, child of light etc etc still hold up in at least a few ways despite all being on probably 10+ other platforms... (it's unfortunate they just weren't competitively priced compared to said platforms)

(actually i might as well just note all the other ones i had on there... the bridge, the swapper, the fall, nihilumbra, electronic super joy, badland, cloudberry kingdom, knytt underground, thomas was alone, never alone, chasing aurora, giana sisters, poncho, pirate pop plus, little inferno, nano assault neo, tachyon project, aperion cyberstorm, xtype plus, ghost blade hd, 140, and 6180 the moon... and dr luigi and the nes remixes, some physical games and and a lot of virtual console stuff)
