Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure (Sega Genesis, 1 player, 800 Wii Points) Wii Fanboy says: do not download
Well, this week doesn't have much for us in the way of Virtual Console releases. All that is available for download is the mediocre platformer Boogerman. For 800 Wii Points, you'd be better off checking out another title on the long list of titles available for download. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.

Mega Man 3 (NES, 1 player, 500 Wii Points) Wii Fanboy says: download it!
What can we say about Mega Man 3? It's a classic game, one that should be in anyone's collection. We'd suggest you check out Anniversary Collection as it's a pretty good compilation disc, but if you're more the type to like downloading things, then check out Mega Man 3. Either way, just play it.

Yu Suzuki's Space Harrier is quite the fun time. It may not be the perfect arcade port and runs a bit slow when you're playing, but, overall, it's a fun game. And, seriously, for $5, it's a great diversion. You aren't going to be investing 20 hours into the thing, but, for $5, it's a great way to waste a rainy afternoon.

Mega Man 2 is something folks can talk at length about. Whether it's strategy involving the 8 initial bosses and their stages, or the bickering between which weapon is the best, it's a game that many hold near and dear to their hearts.

If you can't download this amazing game for $5, or don't already own it, you're doing yourself a great disservice. Everyone should spend some time with this game at least one time in their life.
