This week, the lone WiiWare release is a deer hunting game from Arc System Works. We would have expected such a game to come from an American publisher first, so we're a bit surprised to see ASW premiere it in Japan. Not surprised enough to pay that much attention.Our attention is fixed, instead, firmly on the Virtual Console. Between the proto-strategy game Famicom Wars and Namco's arcade arena combat game Cyber Sled, it's a pretty awesome week to have a Wii in Japan. Even if we're pretty sure the Virtual Console Arcade version of Cyber Sled can't have multiplayer (since the arcade game used separate cabinets for each player).Virtual Console:
- Ninja-kun: Ashura no Shou (Famicom, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points)
- Famicom Wars (Famicom, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points)
- R-TYPE (Sega Master System, 1 player, 500 Wii Points)
- Cyber Sled (Arcade, 800 Wii Points)
WiiWare:
- Shikagari (Hunting) (1-4 players, 500 Wii Points)
