Virtual Console (Wii U)
* Wild Guns, Natsume – $7.99
Blast your way through villainous outlaws, diabolical robots, and towering, screen-filling bosses either by yourself or with a friend at your side in the two-player co-op mode. You’ll need a sharp eye and quick-on-the-draw reflexes, but fortunately, you’ve got plenty of moves to help you survive the hail of bullets heading your way. You can dive-roll, jump, double jump, rope enemies with a lasso, and clear the screen with explosive special attacks. Blast apart just about everything in the environment to find guns, bombs, and other hidden power-ups. It’s up to you to bring justice back to town—or whatever’s left of it when the gun smoke clears.
Wii U Download Software
* Arrow Time U, XenoHorizon – $1.99
Arrow Time U has you take control of none other than a neon blue arrow. With limited time, health, and special powers, it’s your job to point your arrow in the right direction… and take it there as well! Your unique movement mechanisms and abilities to slow down time and move through any object will certainly help, but you’ll need both quick thinking and quick reactions to overcome all the obstacles and foes in your way in this top-down 2D game.
* Spikey Walls, RCMADIAX – $0.99
Spikey Walls is an exciting arcade game available exclusively for the Wii U. In this title, you must avoid hitting the “spikey” walls by tapping the A button on the Wii U GamePad to earn a high score. Share your high score by posting a screenshot of the results page on Miiverse! Endless fun!

* Legend of the River King 2, Natsume – $4.99
Mean-hearted spirits control the River King and Sea King, the biggest fish in the world. An angel appears to you and your brother, asking you to track down these fish. But before you’re ready to begin the search for the elusive water beasts, you’ll need to score smaller fry to feed yourself and save up to purchase better tackle and rods. Just be careful, because wild animals may prey on your catch of the day! With all manners of angling to enjoy, from freshwater fly-fishing to deep-sea trolling to collecting a variety of insects and plant life, you’ll have hours of nonstop fun in this role-playing adventure!
