Under Wii / Nintendo
This week, the Virtual Console dumptruck has unloaded two new games onto Wii consoles. One is a fighting game with a superior version already on the service, while the other is a pretty good Factor 5 joint for the SNES. If you fancy yourself an Indy fan (not that kinda Indy), then you’ll definitely want to check out the video above.
Actually, you should probably just watch it anyway. You know, just to be safe.
- Indiana Jones’ Greatest Adventures (SNES, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
- Street Fighter II’ Champion Edition (TG16, 1 – 2 players, 700 Wii Points)
Every week, we like to check out what’s new on the Virtual Console. We offer these videos as a sort of taste to help you decide whether or not you would want the game in question. We also toss in our own two cents because we’re pushy jerks like that.

Under Wii / Nintendo
This week, we get our first taste of Nintendo’s new WiiWare demos. Surprisingly, it didn’t take Nintendo that long to flip the switch for North America, considering the company revealed the long-overdue feature — and day-one annoyance — only earlier this month. And on top of the free trial versions of select WiiWare titles (five total this week!), there are also two new Virtual Console titles to enjoy, as well as three new DSiWare games. Hit the break for the full list.

Under Wii / Nintendo
Even though many of your trusted Joystiq editors are a little old to be playing with toys (there’s an age limit?), we can’t deny having a huge soft spot for the LEGO franchise tribute games. So, of course we’re excited that the Indiana Jones films are being remastered block-mastered again, since we heart them too. (Actually, don’t get us started on the last one — sheesh!)
As this newly released trailer shows, the tongue-in-cheek humor, charm and co-op play that’s made the previous LEGO offerings so appealing doesn’t seem to have been turned town in the tiniest for LEGO Indiana Jones 2 – and we can’t wait to create some truly weird stuff with the new level editor. We’re thinking of awarding a prize to the editor who devises the most ingenious and playfully painful way to get rid of “Mutt” — preferably as fast as possible — since all of our pleas to Lucas to write him out of canon have thus far gone ignored.

Under Xbox 360
Originally, LucasArts’ Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings was planned to be released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 as well. After a couple of years of troubled development, the next-gen version was shelved, and a few months later the game arrived on Wii, DS, PSP, and PS2.
Unseen64, following a car chase, a fistfight with Nazis, and a trip through a booby-trapped cave, unearthed early footage and screens of the next-gen game. We’ve got one rough gameplay clip after the break; check the site for more early gameplay and test animations, and decide for yourself if LucasArts chose wisely or poorly.
[Thanks, Werner C!]
