New Titles Hit Wii Ware

This week’s titles have hit Nintendo’s online service with multiple titles hitting the Virtual Console and Wii Ware.  On Virtual Console one NES title hit with Blaster Master along with one Sega Genesis title with Earthworm Jim 2.  Four titles have also hit Wii Ware as well.

In Blaster Master you have fallen down a hidden manhole into a world of creatures so terrifying they’d scare the rats away.  You will have to blast your way through a seemingly endless maze of tunnels in search of secret passages so you can escape.  You’ll have to battle throuh enemies such as prehistoric creatures as you progress on your journey.  Blaster Master is available for 500 Wii points.

Earthworm Jim 2 and his new sidekick, Snott, are back for an off-the-wall sequel in Earthworm Jim 2.  Containing more action than your standard platformer from the Genesis era, each stage has a different style and mission, drawing on game play from different genres, including mazes, trivia contests and arcade-style levels.  The game also features music composed by Tommy Tallarico.  Earthworm Jim 2 is available for 800 Wii points.

The first title to hit Wii Ware is Stunt Cars.  Stunt Cars takes place on elevated racetracks with very little to stop players from accidentally driving off the side.  Turbo can be used to make a car go faster, but it can only be used for a limited amount of time in each race.  As you progress through the game’s four championship cups, you’ll unlock special features such as driver achievement awards.  Stunt Cars is available for 800 Wii points.

Diatomic is a fast retro-arcade action game that takes place inside a set of petri dishes.  The safe confines of your petri dish are about to be invaded by nine different diatomic creatures that seek to destroy you.  Armed with your shield, tail, strategic intelligence and good reflexes, you stand a good chance of defeating the overwhelming odds.  You must stay alive during 65 hectic stages spread over five chapters.  The high score list shows what kind of player you are.  Playing defensively and gaining an all-out defensive high score is harder to pull off than gaining an all-out offensive high score.  Diatomic is available for 800 Wii points.

Moki Moki is the next title to hit the Wii Ware service today.  It’s a mind-bending, gravity-defying puzzler. The Moki are being devoured by the voracious Gromblins, and it’s up to you to guide the hapless little guys to safety. Bend, twist and rotate the environment to herd the Moki through a series of brain-teasing puzzles. Along the way, you’ll have to contend with deadly pitfalls, spinning blades and shifting gravity. Roll Moki down ramps, grab them with hooks and blast them with jets to guide them safely to the portals. Challenge your skills in 100 unique levels.  Moki Moki is available for 800 Wii points.

The final title to hit Wii Ware this week is Rubik’s Puzzle Galaxy: RUSH.  Rubik’s Puzzle Galaxy: RUSH is a 3-D puzzle game with more than 70 challenging levels. Players need to guide Cubes to color-coded exit points. Using the Wii Remote^™ controller’s intuitive controls, players herd the colored cubes along by using Conveyer Belts, Warps, Stop Signs, Directional Signs and Splits. RUSH also includes the original Rubik’s Cube as a bonus. Players can attempt to solve one of the four different-sized Cubes alone, compete against a second player or learn how to solve the classic Rubik’s Cube.  Rubik’s Puzzle Galaxy: RUSH is available now for 600 Wii points.
