The latest Wii Virtual Console update has just hit PAL machines, bringing with it three new additions to the Wii Shop's ever-growing retro roster.
The biggest title in today's batch is classic NES bruiser Punch Out! Which in case you're unaware (and shame on you if you are) has you fighting as a boxing rookie, rising through the ranks and eventually twatting Mike Tyson in his big smug face. Punch Out! Is yours for 500 Wii Points, and well worth the purchase.
Second in line is Konami's SNES offering The Legend of the Mystical Ninja, which much to our disappointment has nothing to do with Goeman. According to our mate Wikipedia, it's a 2-player action game which has you controlling Kid Ying and Dr. Yang (popular names in the Far East) on their quest to rescue a (videogame convention alert!) kidnapped princess. This one's yours for 800 points.
Last but not least is token TurboGrafx offering Dragon's Curse, which follows the story of some bloke who has an unfortunate encounter with a dragon and then for some reason turns into Lizard Man. The object of the game is to battle bosses and retrieve the Salamander Cross, which will return your scaly arse back to its pasty human form. Yours for 600 points.
Not a terrible bunch then - hopefully the short absence of massive first-party games means we'll be getting something extra special next week. We'll keep you posted.
