hyrule-warriors-ganon

It’s Ganon’s tyrannical form that leads this week’s Nintendo Download, with Koei Tecmo Games continuing to deliver more content to Hyrule Warriors with the Boss Pack.

Hullbreach Studios also try to inspire your artistic talent by bringing SDK Paint to Wii U, with Konami’s Cybernator and Bandai Namco’s Pac-Attack joining the Virtual Console service.

Three Kirby themes become available on Nintendo 3DS, which itself sees plenty of new arrivals in Titan Attacks! and Zombie Incident, but, somewhat more significantly, an array of special offers presumably to help New Nintendo 3DS owners build their software library.

Virtual Console (Wii U)
* Cybernator, Konami – £5.49 (€7.99)
In the near future, nations fight over dwindling resources. As Jake, soldier for the Pacific States, you must lead a deadly mission with your Cybernator Assault Suit through seven stages of run-and-gun action. As you progress, power up your weapons like the Vulcan cannon, punch and missiles. Each level has new objectives that may require your suit’s special abilities like roller-dash and flying modes. Cybernator is shoot ’em up action on an epic scale with set pieces that could belong in a blockbuster sci-fi movie! This is the US version of the game.

* Pac-Attack, Bandai Namco Games – £5.49 (€7.99)
Pac-Man made his puzzle game debut in the pulse-pounding Pac-Attack. This quirky, fast-paced Super Nintendo puzzler tasks you with keeping the screen clear of falling blocks and ghosts, and Pac-Man well-fed! Every so often Pac-Man will appear, and will move across and down the screen; so you must get the ghosts lined up for him to munch. He will keep eating ghosts until he hits a dead end, so you need to plan quickly and carefully to clear all the ghosts. There are three game modes to choose from: 1 Player Normal Game, 2 Player VS Game and the challenging 1 Player Puzzle Game. This is the US version of the game.

Wii U Add-on Content
* Hyrule Warriors: Boss Pack, Nintendo – £2.69 (€2.99)
Two new Challenge Modes (Boss Challenge and Ganon’s Fury) with five new alternatively-coloured costumes as rewards. Each mode contains three battle types across three difficulty levels, as well as one extra-difficult scenario.

Wii U Download Software
* SDK Paint, Hullbreach Studios – £3.99 (€4.49)
SDK Paint takes a unique approach to Wii U artwork creation, by stacking five layers onto the artwork canvas. Each layer can be utilised independently to create the next masterpiece. By combining the artistic modes (Normal Paint, Noisy Paint, Smudge, and Spraycan), the numerous filters (Blur, Negate, Lighten, Darken, etc.), the shaders (Pattern Fill, Flood Fill, Texture, etc.), and the tools (Gridlines, Stencils, Drag, Swap, etc.), possibilities of what the stylus can paint onto the canvas are endless. Oops, a mistake… Ten levels of Undo will help with that! The artwork needs fine precision? Just zoom the canvas! A large colour palette, with dragging support, lets artists easily choose exactly the colour desired, and a Dropper tool makes identifying previous colours a simple task. The features don’t just end with painting, either! How does the artwork look on a wall? Explore the retro 3D Galleries to see all 18 paintings framed on the walls. Is the artwork ready to show off? Jump into the Sharing area and prepare it for either 2D or anaglyph 3D (special glasses required) posting of screenshots to Miiverse. Show the world your inner artist. SDK Paint supports 3D viewing by use of anaglyph 3D glasses. While these are not required, they do enhance the experience.
