WiiWare: Bit Boy!!, 600 Wii Points
This game bills itself as "Retro Arcade Action" and sends the title character, Bit Boy Kubi, on a short trip through gaming history. Rescue Kubi’s friends on your own or with a partner as you explore "4-bit dungeons, 8-bit caves, 16-bit strongholds, 32-bit labyrinths, 64-bit arenas and 128-bit worlds".
WiiWare: Incoming!, 500 Wii Points
This game is of the genre "blow up all the enemy everything". As you play through the game and blow up the enemy repeatedly, you can collect powerups and upgrade your arsenal in order to more effectively blow up the enemy. If you like, you can blow up a human opponent instead.
WiiWare: Ant Nation, 700 Wii Points
This ant colony game is about tough love. As you play through this game, trying to defeat enemies, collect things and accomplish tasks, you’ll fire lasers at your ants, set them on fire, or even strike them with lightning in order to toughen them up and make them immune to your savage attacks, as well as those of the enemy and the harsh terrain.
Master System: Secret Command, 600 Wii Points
This import title from Europe has you infiltrating an enemy base all on your lonesome, trying to rescue the hostages and kill everything that is not a hostage. You’ve got a machine gun and an exploding bow and arrow at your disposal, along with other weapons that will help you get the best of the enemy soldiers. This game can, awesomely, be played in two-player co-op mode.
Genesis: Pulseman, 900 Wii Points
You are Pulseman, a half-human, half-computer-program hero with a somewhat complicated set of origins. You’ll need to use your electric Volteccer to defeat enemies and get yourself moving quickly as you battle the Galaxy Gang of Dr. Waruyama across seven stages in this action platformer.
A large haul this week, including a couple of imports. Bit Boy looks like it could be pretty fun, I’ll have to see how it holds up.
