Malaysian Nintendo fans will be happy to hear that the video game giant has finally officially launched both its eShop and online subscription service in the country today (Nov 18), allowing local gamers to purchase games and pay for their monthly subscriptions in ringgit.

As the name suggest, the eShop is the Japanese company's digital storefront for video game releases and downloadable content (DLC). Gamers are also able to download free demos from the platform to try out before purchase.
