Humble ‘Nindie’ Bundle is packed with 3DS and Wii U games

Looks like the fabulous Humble Bundle promotion is no longer exclusive to just the PC Master Race. For the first time in the history of the Humble Bundle, you can pay what you want for console games.

And to kick things off we have the 'Humble Nindie Bundle', the first time Nintendo (or any of the major three platform holders) has made its games available for sale through the popular pay-what-you-want Humble Bundle service.

Up until now, the Humble Bundle has traditionally allowed users to pay what they want for an assortment of PC games, music, and movies (usually themed). Though this is the first time in the history of the service that console games have been offered, it's something Humble Bundle co-found John Graham can see happening more in the future.

"We are trying to talk to everyone and we are definitely exploring all possibilities," said Humble Bundle co-founder John Graham told Polygon. "I'm optimistic that our future will hold more console promotions."

As the name suggests, the Humble Nindie Bundle lets you pay what you want for a variety of indie games for Nintendo 3Ds and Wii U, including Stealth Inc. 2 and Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition. The bundle includes three 3DS games, three Wii U games, and two games for both systems, which totals to about $88 worth of Nintendo games. There are more games said to be coming soon.

As usual, there is a reserve you must meet if you want to purchase all of them, but it's well below the price than if you were to pay individually for all of them.

Pay what you want:

Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition (Wii U)

Woah Dave! (3DS)

Mighty Switch Force! (3DS)

Pay more than the average *$9.27* to unlock:

The Fall (Wii U)

OlliOlli (Wii U and 3DS)

Moon Chronicles (3DS)

More coming soon…

Pay $10 or more to unlock:

Stealth Inc. 2 (Wii U)

SteamWorld Dig (Wii U and 3DS)

Due to Nintendo's region restrictions, the games are locked and only redeemable on consoles purchased in North, Central and South America (exclusing Brazil).

As always, you can divide your purchase between the developers, Humble Bundle, and the charity Code.org, a non-profit dedicated to expanding participation in computer science by making it available in more schools, and increasing participation by women and underrepresented students of color.
