Today's WiiWare and Wii Virtual Console releases have been announced by Nintendo. Here's the games which will be available starting at 9am PST:
WiiWare Release:
Evasive Space (Yukes Company of America, 1-4 players, Rated E for
Everyone Mild Fantasy Violence, 1,000 Wii Points): Launch a one-of-a-kind
mission to rescue the stars. The universe is going dark, and its up to you,
Konki the Stellar Guardian, to set things right. Dr. Dark Matter and his roving
band of space thieves have stolen many of the Constellation Stones that make up
the heavens. It's time to suit up, power up, recover the Stones and once again
bring light to the night sky. Using the Wii Remote controller's unique pointer
capabilities, simply point and thrust Konki through 20 dangerous time- and collection-based
missions in the harshest of environments. Navigate through narrow, mazelike astral
caves riddled with space worms, steam pipes and mining drills. Explore vast space
stations while avoiding turret fire, mines and huge crushing gears. Weave through
cluttered asteroid fields and gaseous planetary rings. Evade the hazards, pick
up precious items and ship upgrades, and save the Constellation Stones before
the night sky is lost forever.
Virtual Console Release:
Life Force (NES, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone Mild Fantasy
Violence, 500 Wii Points): This classic shooter, originally ported to the NES
in August 1988, is a spin-off of the seminal Gradius series. Pilot the Vic Viper
through six stages of intense action, alternating between horizontally and vertically
scrolling environments, and take on wave after wave of enemies. Destroy particular
enemies throughout the game (which takes place within the body of an enormous
alien) to release power-up capsules and equip your ship with your choice of more
powerful weapons, extra speed and shields. Utilize the power-ups carefully, though,
as a fearsome guardian lurks at the end of each stage and won't be easily defeated.
You can go it alone or bring along a friend to take on the challenge simultaneously.
Do you have what it takes to save your planet?
