  • Adventure Island (500 Wii Points) – It’s Master Higgins’ first outing on the NES! This one-player side-scroller sees Master Higgins running through eight stages to save his one true love from the evil Witch Doctor. Not only does he have to deal with the various enemies in his way, Master Higgins also has to keep on eating as his vitality keeps running out slowly.
  • Donkey Kong Jr. Math (500 Wii Points) – Players can practice addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in this NES title by directing Junior up and down vines to collect numbers and math symbols to solve the math problems his father gives him. This game’s perfect for teaching younger gamers about the rudiments of mathematics.
  • Landstalker: The Treasures of King Nole (800 Wii Points) – Players take on the role of an elvish treasure hunter named Nigel in this Genesis original. Nigel must embark on a quest to obtain all of King Nole’s treasure before the treacherous Duke Mercator does. This game is for one player only.
  • Bonk 3: Bonk’s Big Adventure (600 Wii Points) – This week’s TurboGrafx 16 title is Bonk’s last outing on the classic home console. Our hard-headed hero must go head to head against the evil King Drool once again. This game also features a two-player mode for some cooperative head-bonking action.

All the above titles should be available on the Wii Shop Channel. Check ’em out.
