Japanese Nintendo downloads: NyxQuest, PooYoos

So, some games are available this week on the Virtual Console, WiiWare, and DSiWare in Japan. Last year's NyxQuest, the Greek-themed platformer, is the star among the Wii releases.

DSiWare has ... Miami Nights! Perfect if you like The Sims and constantly thinking of David Caruso jokes.
