No Virtual Console games this week, but Nintendo isn't skimping on the classics. Studio Pixel's classic indie adventure Cave Story sees its triumphant return as a remake for WiiWare, and three Game & Watch titles pop up on DSiWare.
WiiWare
- Cave Story (Nicalis, Inc., 1 player, 1200 Wii Points)
DSiWare
- Drift Street International (Tantalus, 1-4 players, 800 DSi Points)
- Libera Wing (Pixel Federation, 1 player, 800 DSi Points)
- Game & Watch: Mario's Cement Factory (Nintendo, 1 player, 200 DSi Points)
- Game & Watch: Chef (Nintendo, 1 player, 200 DSi Points)
- Game & Watch: Judge (Nintendo, 1 player, 200 DSi Points)
This week's download is a no-brainer -- you simply must get Cave Story. Last night, I fired up the freeware version to prepare myself for today's release, and can't wait to play the update this week. As for the Game & Watch games, it's tempting, but with my DSi XL on the way (and no way to transfer DSiWare games from one DSi to another), I think I'll hold off.
Where are your Wii Points and DSi Points going this week?

...tower defense.
Game N Watch it is. I'm a sucker for Game N Watch stuff.
When I have Wii, Cave Story looks nice.
I am really psyched to see some Game and Watch games trickle out. I'll be looking forward to Ball, Super Mario Bros, and the original Mario Bros. If only they could work on getting rights to Popeye.
Believe it or not, most Game and Watch games are excellent time killers.
Thank you Gunpei Yokoi.
cave story is worth it because it has multiple endings, and is just a fun game overall
Every tuesday? where does it say that cuz it's always been monday.
Almost considered calling out of work today to sit and play through it.
I have the PC version but Wiiware is going to be even better thanks to all of the new features. Although, I plan on sticking with the new graphics and old music.
FUCKING BUY IT.
Had to settle for Rondo of Blood instead. Not sure how i should feel about that...
