    Wiikly Update: Where’s Samurai Shodown II and Mega Man?

    Posted August 4th @ 9:07 am by jsharp

    WII-KLY UPDATE: ONE WIIWARE GAME AND TWO VIRTUAL CONSOLE GAMES ADDED TO WII SHOP CHANNEL

    Aug. 4, 2008

    The list of available games for Wii™ owners just keeps on growing as we add another trio of titles to the Wii™ Shop Channel. This week’s lineup features Old West thrills, supernatural chills and a little blue hedgehog whose name you’re sure to recognize. Thanks to Nintendo’s WiiWare™ downloadable game service and the classic-filled Virtual Console™, building your own blockbuster video game library has never been easier.

    Nintendo adds new and classic games to the Wii Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week’s new games are:

    I’m not sure why Samurai Showdown II and Mega Man aren’t on this list, but it doesn’t necessarily mean they won’t release today at 9am PST.  I’ll be checking for sure once these games go live and let you know!
