eShop games of the week: Game Boy Advance VC arrives!
The Wii U and 3DS downloads and promotions coming this Thursday
We've been waiting a fair old while, but this week sees the start of the Wii U Virtual Console rollout for choice cuts from the Game Boy Advance library. We're starting well - all three of today's games are in our list of the Top 10 Best Game Boy Advance games. Enjoy!https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=8nkrQmlmeYcAdvance Wars (Wii U Virtual Console: Nintendo, £6.29) is Intelligent Systems' all-smiling, country-defiling war simulation, which somehow turns an incredibly serious subject into the happiest strategy game we've played.
Metroid Fusion (Wii U Virtual Console: Nintendo, £6.29) takes Samus, has her infected with a alien parasite, removes most of her Varia Suit, and tells her to just get on with saving the cosmos as usual. Essentially, it's the Spider-Man 3 of Metroid games. Except so much better than I've just made it sound.
Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga (Wii U Virtual Console: Nintendo, £6.29) part-RPG, part-puzzler and part-reflex test, the first of AlphaDream's crazed take on the Mario universe has them teaming up with Bowser, chatting with living beans and smacking each other with hammers like a more surreal Laurel & Hardy.
Super Monkey Ball 3D (3DS: Sega, £14.99) was never the best entry in Sega's fairly creepy primate cruelty series, but with the right price cut they could get back on the ball here.
Bubble Pop World (3DS: Cypronia, £4.49) takes the saturated Match-3 genre and pairs it with the, er, underrepresented Augmented Reality game genre to make a game that'll have you injuring yourself on furniture in no time.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rl40dspBJz0&feature=player_embeddedAlongside the new releases, the generous bunch at Two Tribes have permanently discounted Toki Tori, EDGE and RUSH, all of which are now £1.79.
