Looks like Nintendo decided to take the week off from the virtual console scene since they have finally opened up the WiiWare for business. With that said, I guess I’ll cover the new WiiWare games from here on out. For starters, Nintendo has launched six new games all ranging from 500 points to 1,500 points and each in quite a bit different genre. The new games are: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King, LostWinds, Defend your Castle, Pop, V.I.P. Casino: Blackjack, and TV Show King. So give them a look over and just maybe you’ll find something you will like.
