Europeans and us only get four games this week, but I don’t think too many will be complaining after yesterday’s game release.

 

Today the arcade version of Ninja Gaiden hit the service, but if you’re used to the NES version then this one may seem a little odd. It plays in a similar way to most brawlers, with you needing to beat up your enemies a fair bit with all your special moves before they die. The title will set you back 800 Points.

Two WiiWare titles are available from today, and one of them is quite a ’big’ release. Why do I say that? Well, the game is My Zoo, the sequel to the incredibly popular My Aquarium. The gameplay in this looks a little more varied than the fish tank simulator, with lots of animals available to keep and more work needed on the the part of the player. At 500 Points, the same price as its predecessor, we can only expect this to sell well, too.

Next is Rock N’ Roll Climber, a Nintendo-published, well, climbing game for 800 Points. Giles Goddard was the guy who developed the game, so you’d think after his work on Starfox, Super Mario 64, 1080° Snowboarding, and Zelda: Ocarina of Time that it’d have to be at least a decent game! The musical title even has Balance Board support, so you can feel even more immersed as you traverse interior and exterior walls.

Like the Virtual Console, only one DSiWare release this time. We reported earlier when the OFLC rated A Little Bit of... Nintendo Touch Golf, and it has now hit the service for 800 Points. Originally released over four years ago as a retail DS title, the game generally had positive reviews. We’re not sure if the game is a cut down version of this or the full title, so you might want to wait up on this one until that is explained.
