Nintendo's Wii U sales may be a little less than hoped for, but that won't stop them from cranking out more and more games for the eShop and Virtual Console. Let's see what they have in store for us this week.
Digimon All Star Rumble Announced For November
Mega Man Battle Network - the entire month of August, a new Mega Man title will be released on the Wii U's Virtual Console. This week, for $7.99, you can pick up Battle Network, the classic GBA title that puts you into the virtual world of hackers and viruses. It's a slightly different version of Mega Man, eschewing the side scrolling blast em up for a more RPG oriented adventure. But since it's Mega Man, of course it's worth it.
Previously announced, the next great chapter in the LEGO world, LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids is out now for the 3DS. Priced at $29.99, expect the full game experience. This is a game about ninjas and androids and, god willing, ninja androids and I think very little else has to be said. It is the follow up to the original, best selling LEGO Battles: Ninjago. Based on the first five new episodes of the animated TV series, LEGO Ninjago Rebooted, players will battle and defend New Ninjago City, where the Ninjas face a technological threat by the evil Overlord and his robotic army of Nindroids.
