Demolish your enemy’s castle at the end of these two-dimensional battlefields and lead your troops to victory. Featuring hours of single-player campaign game play and challenging skirmishes, the game also offers frantic local multiplayer matches that let you take the fight to your friends.

As your rivals look enviously upon your domain, you must struggle to weather the assaults of your opponents and carve out a living for your people. Engage in diplomacy to forge alliances and organize your troops to defend the prosperity of your empire. If you can manage to spread the borders of your empire to the corners of the world, all will pay homage to your might.

Nintendo Written by Guest on 2009-06-08 13:44:08Dear Nintendo,
It's not you, it's me. We've had a great relationship over the past 20years but I think it's time I move on to bigger and better things, years ago, you promised me that you would continue to support the Virtual Console with outstanding classic games, and yet week after week, I am dissapointed to see a slew of lame WiiWare titles and a throwback retro title that only a select few with varying social skills might possibly remember thrown in here or there. Fact is, you have neglected hundreds of fantastic titles for your download service, and I for one am sick of waiting.
If only... Written by Guest on 2009-06-08 16:09:29Ah, if only someone who works at Nintendo would EVER actually read that.

Wolf26pack Written by Guest on 2009-06-08 19:38:22I really wish Nintendo would start to bring out more Virtual Console games. Now that they have Wiiware & DSiware coming out they only release like 1 VC game per week. There are Hundreds of Thousands VC games out there and probably a couple thousand good ones but they are sure taking there time in releasing them & it seems like they are using the Wiiware & DSiware as a cruch so they don't have to bring out that many VC games.
Free Download Wii Games Written by Guest on 2009-06-12 07:30:59Thanks for sharing! Nintendo Download Wii Games are made for the occasion with their unique gaming experience and they don’t have to cost a bomb anymore either.
