European Nintendo Update: It's Pong. Edition
njsykora \| 3:35 AM on 05.01.2009	2 comments

4 games are available today over the 3 services. The Virtual Console gets Galaxy Force for the Turbografx (it's a shooter shockingly) and DSi Ware gets minified versions of cack magic game Master of Illusion and awesome puzzler Dr Mario. But we're all here for the WiiWare.

WiiWare Game - Bit.Trip Beat
Aksys Games - 600 Points

I'd love to put the boot into this one by saying it's just Pong without the fun of returning the ball but I honestly can't. This is a beautiful and brilliant rhythm game that is a perfect complement to Rhythm Paradise if you've bought that this week. For just 600 points as well, consider this essential.

YAY! This game is so amazing! So happy that you Brits can now play the amazingness that is Bit.Trip Beat. Now just hope that you get the next game in the Bit.Trip series too.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
