VC/WiiWare Tuesday: Muscle Marches On

Under normal circumstances, by far the biggest news on the Japanese Wii Shop this week would be Final Fantasy. Square Enix actually delivered the game on time to Virtual Console, and didn't even take the opportunity to jack the price up. Even if it is ancient, 500 points for a classic RPG is a great deal!

But circumstances aren't normal this week: Muscle March, the game of posing a line of Speedo'd bodybuilders to run through walls in order to catch the thief who stole their protein powder, is out. Also on WiiWare, though less muscle-related: Arkanoid Plus!, a WiiWare release similar to the Arkanoid game for XBLA, and NEVES Plus.

Virtual Console:

• Final Fantasy (Famicom, 1 player, 500 Wii Points)
• Splatterhouse (Arcade, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)

WiiWare:

• Arkanoid Plus! (1-2 players, 800 Wii Points)
  
• Hamekomi Lucky Puzzle Wii (1-4 players, 500 Wii Points)
• ３℃ (1-2 players, 700 Wii Points)
• Muscle Koushinkyoku (Muscle March) (1-4 players, 800 Wii Points)
