Nintendo have confirmed that Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] will receive a digital release on Nintendo 3DS' eShop. This confirmation comes from Joystiq, who heard the news from Nintendo in a E3 investor presentation. A list of titles confirmed for a digital release can be seen below.

Update: Joystiq have added that Nintendo have included an update to the announcement. Apparently, the digital release announcement "refers to first-party titles only". As Kingdom Hearts 3D is not a first-party title, it seems they were mistaken in announcing that Kingdom Hearts 3D receive a digital release.

Now I really don't get why BBS isn't on the PSN! SE why you no digital release it?

At least I can get Epic Mickey, Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon, Paper Mario Sticker Star, and New Super Mario Bros 2 on the eshop. I am going to try and get the MoM verison of Kingdom Hearts 3D so I wouldnt be able to get it on eshop, but this is good for the other games. :D

I prefer physical copies of games, so this doesn't make a difference to me. Plus, you can't get the MoM edition from a download :)

I don't buy downlodable copies of games...I prefer physical copies, mostly because I know I'll always have it. You never know when something could happen to your 3DS and you'd lose that data.
Plus, I like collecting the boxes^^

IKR maybe it will be the first of the main games not to get a final mix but instead get DLC for all regions :D

That will surely be big news (propably).

I guess it'd be nice in some ways, but I like physical copies better. x3 Btw, Riku'sAngel, I think if you lost your 3DS, you could just re-download the game.

My Internet acess is limited to 200 MB a day with additional 120 MB costs $5 because I cannot get broadband. Plus, I like physical copies better.

Read this online a few hours ago and would've posted it as soon as I got to a computer, but the KH13 staff is to fast for me, it seems.

So - MoM edition, or simple digital version of the game with no case, insert, etc.? Easy answer. :p But I suppose it being on the eShop is good for those who don't care for the physical things.

This is probably only on there because Nintendo is really pushing developers to put their titles on the eShop - especially big profile ones like KH3D. Sony on the other hand could care less for BBS, and Disney and Square wouldn't want to go through the trouble to put it on PSN, hence why it's not there. It's probably too late to put it on there anyway.

Time to delete all my stuff to make space for this.
But OMG yes. Too bad there won't be the AR Cards, though.

This is cool, but I think I'll prefer to have the physical copy.
