European Nintendo downloads: Pokemon Rumble, Shootanto, demos

November 20th, 2009 at 04:45pm Under DS

The WiiWare demo service arrives in Europe today, though a bit light on content compared to other regions. On the upside, both of the demos offered are for games that cost 1,500 Wii Points, which means you could save a pretty large chunk of change if you discover (somehow) that you don’t like World of Goo.

In terms of stuff you pay for, Shootanto is going to be totally overshadowed by Pokemon Rumble. DSiWare has a decent selection of games, including something that looks kind of like Defend Your Castle, a few card games, and myNotebook.

Pokemon Rumble (WiiWare, 1-4 players, 1,500 Wii Points)
Shootanto: Evolutionary Mayhem (WiiWare, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points)
Army Defender (DSiWare, 1 player, 200 DSi Points)
A Little Bit of … All-Time Classics: Strategy Games (DSiWare, 1 player, 500 DSi Points)
myNotebook: Blue (DSiWare, 1 player, 200 DSi Points)
Uno (DSiWare, 1-6 players, 500 DSi Points)
Demos: Pokemon Rumble, World of Goo (free)

European Nintendo downloads: Zombies Lit, BBQed My Ghost Mansion

October 30th, 2009 at 03:00pm Under Wii / Nintendo

Nintendo of Europe apparently believes Halloween is serious business and worth celebrating. Four of the five new downloadable games this week are in some way horror-themed! Zombies Ate My Neighbors arrives on Virtual Console in the same week as its North American release (under the European title Zombies), as does (unfortunately) Ghost Mansion Party. WayForward’s LIT proves a more appropriate Halloween release than its Valentine’s Day-adjacent release in the US would suggest.

Perhaps the biggest, scariest surprise of all: Little Red Riding Hood’s Zombie BBQ is out in Europe, finally! And, while it was released on a cartridge here, it’s an 800-point DSiWare download in Europe! No excising of zombie food talk for this one.

Zombies (SNES, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points)
LIT (WiiWare, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
Ghost Mansion Party (WiiWare, 1-4 players, 1,000 Wii Points)
Little Red Riding Hood’s Zombie BBQ (DSiWare, 1 player, 800 DSi Points)
A Little Bit of … All Time Classics: Card Classics (DSiWare, 1-8 players, 500 DSi Points)

Studies show that American consumers are most receptive to downloadable content at the beginning of the week. It’s true! Why do you think Nintendo dumps its releases out on Mondays? It’s not rocket science, people. But, we digress. Hop past the break to check out what’s new this week for download on Wii and DSi.

Happy Labor Day! To celebrate the occasion, Nintendo offers a WiiWare game that is guaranteed to be hard work. That’s what Labor Day is about, right? Doing as much labor as possible? Nintendo certainly isn’t taking the day off, bringing us a decent number of downloads (relative to our lowered expectations). The list is available after the break.
