As promised, Sunsoft’s brought Blaster Master to the Virtual Console — though we think the impact is somewhat dulled by the quantity of other games available for download this week. There’s a total of 11 different games available, so head past the break for the full list.

If you thought last week’s NintendoWare Weekly update was huge, well … you’ll probably think the same thing about this week’s update! That’s mostly because Nintendo provides quite the overweight offering this time, with a total of ten new titles available for your post-Thanksgiving download. Loosen that belt and make some room for more by heading past the break for the full list of this week’s releases.

This week brings two casual games to Xbox Live Arcade. For puzzle fans, we have Gyromancer (1200
, $15), an RPG take on PopCap’s Bejeweled Twist. For those who prefer something a little more manic, there’s Diner Dash (800, $10), which tasks players with running a restaurant and keeping customers happy. If you’ve ever dealt with real customers before, you’ll know that keeping them happy is harder than it sounds.
See both games in the latest episode of XBLA in Brief.

Here’s how the sausage of video game news gets made: ShackNews reports that the Peggle Nights DLC will arrive on XBLA this Wednesday, November 18. The DLC is a $5 addition to XBLA Peggle, adding sixty-something levels to the game classified in several countries as a controlled substance.
Double-checking with Peggle developer PopCap, the company hasn’t officially announced the date in a release and is optimistic that Nights will be available this Wednesday. Checking with Microsoft, the company is “looking into it.” So, yeah, there’s no reason to doubt anyone, but there doesn’t seem to be an affirmation of Peggle Nights‘ release this week.

Square Enix is teaming up with the “broadly appealing” e-crack peddling masters at PopCap Games on Gyromancer, a new puzzle RPG for XBLA and PC. At its core, Gyromancer is a re-skinned version of PopCap’s Bejeweled Twist with Square Enix delivering the … um, big hair? Maybe some writing — or 20-minute cutscenes? We have no idea.
There’s currently no scheduled release date for Gyromancer, but we’ve definitely had our fill of Puzzle Quest clones recently. Give it some time and, you know, something different. Then again, PopCap has a nasty habit of turning tired casual-gaming genres into gold.

In an absolutely stunning turn of events that surprised everyone in the world, PopCap Games has confirmed that Plants vs. Zombies is to XBLA. WorthPlaying heard the word straight from a PopCap mouthpiece and Shacknews confirmed.
There were no further details given about what, if anything, will change for PopCap’s fastest-selling game when it reanimates itself on XBLA. We’re sure that whatever the developer/publisher/kingpin does, it’ll keep us up until 4AM crying about what happened to our lives.
