Once again, we sum up recent arrivals on the console downloadable scene...
WiiWare -- Three titles this week. Capcom's Mega Man 10 will be hitting all three contemporary consoles this month, but it arrives first on the WiiWare service today, continuing the NES-era series in classically challenging 8-bit style. Dart Rage is a motion-control dartboard simulator. Happy Hammerin' is a multiplayer whack-a-mole party game.
Wii Virtual Console -- One game this week -- Fatal Fury Special, another high-quality Neo-Geo fighter from the venerable SNK series.
DSiWare -- Four titles arrive for Nintendo's portable. Let's Golf is easy to guess. Globulos Party is a compilation of 20 minigames reminiscent of early handheld electronic games. VT Tennis uses stylus swipes to play tennis with plenty of options. Flips: Terror in Cubicle Four is not a game, but a digital book from EA, adapted from the UK Too Ghoul for School series; this story pits students against an evil loo (which sounds so much more pleasant than 'toilet.')
XBox Live Arcade -- Three games released last week. Fret Nice is a guitar-controller-based platformer with an interesting cutout art style, coming to the XBox 360 after debuting early last month on PSN for the PS3. Greed Corp. is a hex-based multiplayer strategy/resource management game, sort of a cross between Catan and Panzer General. Lazy Raiders is a roll-the-rotund-explorer-through-the-maze game, patterned after labyrinth wooden-maze-and-ball games with a comical archaeology theme.
PS3 on PSN -- Greed Corp. also arrived on the PS3 last week.
