There are a lot of free Shovel Knight updates coming to all versions that were originally Kickstarter stretch goals - new playable characters, challenge mode, genderswap mode, local multiplayer battle mode. The Amiibo unlocks extra exclusive content: local co-op, gear levelling/upgrades, amiibo-exclusive challenges.

Yeah I should specify: This is the Plague Knight DLC. The first of the DLC content that was proposed as a stretch goal for the Kickstarter campaign. The amiibo stuff was unrelated to the KS campaign and was added separately.

It's a roguelike (as much as the Mystery Dungeon games are roguelike) where you have a party of Etrian Odyssey classes instead of a single adventurer. Though nothing is stopping you from doing a party of one character if that's your thing. Each class has a skill tree like in the Etrian games so there's a lot more going on than just attacking and using items, and there's even a new class that looks like Shiren the Wanderer if you want to cosplay.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong is okay, it's basically New Donkey Kong '94. Mario vs. DK 2 is full-on stylus-controlled Minis stuff and I suppose it's not bad but I've never much cared for any of them.

The Year Walk devs put a lot of work into adapting their games for the gamepad and the two-screen format and they've claimed it's the definitive version of the game.

The Shovel Knight update is scheduled for around 11AM PST; it's a free update for all versions of the game that adds a second campaign with a new playable character with its own systems and moves, a new story, new music, challenge mode stages and more. The Wii U version should update automatically, but you'll have to update manually from the eShop on 3DS.

Year Walk is a fun horror adventure game that has been substantially overhauled to make full use of the gamepad and two screens; the devs say it's the definitive final version of the game but they would say that, wouldn't they?

Car Battler Joe is a kiddy early-2000s JRPG about battling and customising cars in a top-down Mode 7-ish arena; it was developed by Ancient, Yuzo Koshiro's studio, and while it's not amazing it's definitely unique and worth a look if you're into all the weird crap that littered the GBA.
