Description
Arcade-style submarine combat simulation. Published by Nintendo, released in 2011. 7+ submarines, strategic missions, stylus controls, StreetPass mode. Released in Japan, North America and Europe.
North American pressing of Steel Diver, one of the 3DS launch softs with timid sales across the Atlantic. The US version shares the weak shelf presence of this stylus-submarine concept, which thins clean complete copies today. Its interest comes from its place in the Nintendo inaugural catalogue more than from manufactured scarcity.
