Only one Virtual Console release this week, folks. And, sad to say, it's not the best title around. To get a taste of the game in action, hit play on the video above. If you're more into reading than watching a video, head past the break.
Ninja Combat (NEOGEO, 1 - 2 players, 900 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: do not download
On the surface, Ninja Combat very much looked like a good time. But, upon picking up the controller and diving into the title, I found it was nothing more than a hollow button-masher, void of challenge and any kind of enjoyment. Well, there is some enjoyment to be had, in the ridiculous story and dialog that fill the game. Skip this one, folks.
