New 'Humble Friends of Nintendo' Bundle nets you 3DS, Wii U games

Following last year's rousing success, Humble Bundle has put together another crop of excellent third-party titles for Nintendo's Wii U and 3DS handhelds.  The bundle runs for the next 13 days, until May 10. 

As always, Humble Bundle's offerings come in tiers to give you more control over how much you choose to pay.  For only a buck, you get three games: Retro City Rampage DX for 3DS, Affordable Space Adventures for Wii U, and Shantae and the Pirate's Curse on both systems. 

Paying more than the going average earns you Freedom Planet for Wii U, Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure for 3DS, a Retro City Rampage DX theme for your 3DS, and Citizens of Earth—for Wii U or 3DS.  Yep, you'll have to choose one system over the other.  More games will be added to the "pay more than the average" tier later on. 

Finally, pay $13 or more if you want Darksiders 2 for Wii U and Super Street Fighter 4: 3D Edition for (wait for it) 3DS. 

Just a heads-up: you won't earn any My Nintendo points for purchasing the bundle, but all those games for just $13 (with more on the way) is more than good enough.
