Choices are slim in the US Wii Shop Channel this week. Usually we get three games in a single update, but this week we only get two: one from the Virtual Console and one from WiiWare.

From WiiWare we have Magnetica Twist, which has a DS version out. In the game you have a line of marbles moving down a line. The object of the game is to launch marbles at the line, matching their colors and wiping them out before the line gets too long.

I'm not really that excited for it, since I've quite frankly already have too many color-matching casual games already. And the marble concept's already been perfected by PopCap games' Zuma. Still, Zuma doesn't have my Mii rollicking about launching the marbles, or the instinctive controls of the Wiimote, so the game may be fun for a while. The game is worth 1,000 Wii Points.

On the Virtual Console this week is one of the more beloved fighting games of the early 90s, Fatal Fury 2. Terry, Andy, and Joe are accompanied by five new fighters in the tournament to crown the king of fighters. The game is available for 900 Wii Points, and rated T. To my memory, this is actually the first game on the Wii Shop Channel that's rated higher than E.
