New Nintendo updates

WiiWare and DSi releases detailed
Nintendo's just fired over this week's list of update to its shopping channels of Wii and Dsi. Plenty to look at with a Halloween flavour. Full list below.

WiiWARE - LIT

(Wayforward, 800 Wii Points)

Dark creatures have taken over Jake's high school and it's up to you to guide him through each classroom in order to be reunited with his girlfriend Rachael. Existing light sources must be used smartly to create bridges of light for Jake to cross. One false step and Jake gets pulled into the darkness. Along the way he'll encounter twisted versions of his school's faculty, which must be battled in order to advance.

LIT is a horror puzzle game that requires the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. It contains 30 levels, five boss battles, replay modes, and several unlockable elements including multiple endings, Dark Mode timed challenges, and an unlockable character.

WiiWARE - Ghost Mansion Party

(Gameloft, 1000 Wii Points)

Fazzy the ghost has been locked out of his mansion by some evil spooks and he's willing to give his treasure to anyone who can chase them out! Work cooperatively or competitively with friends and family to defeat the ghosts and discover the huge treasure hidden within.

Travel around this wild mansion in a board game fashion, landing on mini-games that everyone can enjoy. You'll even engage in challenges on the board itself as you try to collect magic scrolls and hints to reveal the secret word that will open the doors to the treasure.

Get your Wii Remotes ready, as you're about to play with them in ways you've never imagined before as you take your journey through the mansion. It's so much fun, it's scary!

VIRTUAL CONSOLE - Zombies

(LucasArts, Super Nintendo, 800 Wii Points)

There are monsters, werewolves, slimy blobs and lots of other hideous creatures out to capture innocent people. They're attacking your neighbours, your neighbours' kids, their dogs and anyone else they can find. It is up to you to use any means possible to save the victims before the bad guys get them.

You will play the game as one of two brave kids: Zeke or Julie. There are hidden 1-Up bonuses in the game. You may also earn bonus lives if you have enough points and ten victims left when you finish a level.

So get ready to conquer 48 levels of giant ants, mad scientists, and big babies, find seven bonus levels, earn points and stockpile your water pistols and other weapons!

NINTENDO DSiWARE - Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ

(Gammick Entertainment, 800 Wii Points)

After saving her grandmother from the claws of the Big Bad Wolf and its army of evil, everything seemed to have returned to normal for Little Red Riding Hood. However, nothing could be further from the truth. Following the tragic death in combat of the woodcutter, an invasion of zombies endangers world peace once again.

Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ is a shooter that gives a unique, comical new spin on a classic tale. Survive by shooting down every living (or dying) creature in your path, using an arsenal of weapons at your disposal to do away with the savage hordes of the undead.

NINTENDO DSiWARE - A Little Bit of... All-Time Classics: Card Classics

(Nintendo, 500 Wii Points)

Enjoy some of the world's favourite games together in one handy collection, playable with Touch Screen controls and with support for up to eight players.

A Little Bit of... All-Time Classics: Card Classics features five best-loved card games: Blackjack, Last Card, Last Card Plus, President and Five Card Draw.

Play solo against computer opponents, learn the rules with in-depth instructions, or play with friends wirelessly, sharing a single copy of the game. You can even send a game to a friend's Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi as a gift, which they can enjoy until they turn off their system!
