Join the Party with seven new downloadables this week.
DSiWare: Dragon’s Lair II: Time Warp, 800 Nintendo Points
The fully-animated sequel to the original Dragon’s Lair arrives on DSiWare. Control Dirk the Daring as he attempts to save Princess Daphne from the evil Mordrac, who wants to trap her in a time warp and force her into marriage. Use your sword and your quick feet to keep Dirk out of danger.
DSiWare: Cosmo Fighters, 500 Nintendo Points
You’ve got a battle to fight! In space! Train yourself in the training mode, then head into the main mode to clean house against the CPU or up to three other players, who can play even if they didn’t buy the game.
DSiWare: Paul’s Monster Adventure, 500 Nintendo Points
Paul’s taking a break from shooting to save some monsters. Formerly the iron-fisted rulers of the land, the people cut off their food supply and now they are in danger of starving. Knock out the inhabitants with your hammer and feed the monsters to restore them to power and return the land to order.
DSiWare: Just SING! Christmas Vol. 2, 200 Nintendo Points
The downloadable singalong game has a new batch of Christmas songs out. Sing into the microphone to be judged on your performances of “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” and “Deck the Halls”.
WiiWare: Frobot, 1,000 Nintendo Points
You are Frobot, the funkiest robot in the whole dang land, and your foxy girlfriends have been stolen. Travel through “The Big Payback”, the game’s story mode, and lay the smackdown on the bad guys who done stole them. Alternatively, gain awesome powers and weapons in Burn Baby Burn and Superfreak modes, or take on other playas in It’s Raining Guns or Do the Hustle.
WiiWare: Inkub, 500 Nintendo Points
You are responsible for the protection of eggs in an incubator, which are under assault on all sides by bacteria and other hostile life forms. Set up weapons like laser cannons or mines to protect the eggs from harm in this tower defense game.
Nintendo 64: Mario Party 2, 1,000 Nintendo Points
Play as one of six Mario characters in the sequel to the original Mario Party. Play on one of six themed boards against three other players, collecting Stars and Coins and playing mini-games. This title introduced such Mario Party staples as duels and items.
The older Mario Parties were a lot more fun for some reason, if you ask me. That might just be nostalgia talking, though.
