Japanese Nintendo downloads: Bravo for Bunnies
Okay, so the two WiiWare games this week were actually released last week. Once again, no WiiWare games are out this week, allowing us the luxury of highlighting the content that didn't make it to the site previously. And how could we let a NEVES sequel or a game based on Toei Animation and Sanrio's Sugarbunnies go by without mentioning them? The Sugarbunnies game manages to out-cute Cooking Mama by setting its cooking minigames in a cartoon bunny world.As for Virtual Console, we're really beginning to tire of the standard 800 point price for arcade games. Bravoman is cool, but New Rally-X? Really? You shouldn't even pay eight bucks for a New Rally-X arcade machine.

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)
NEVES plus WiiWare equals NEVES Plus on WiiWare
NEVES, Yuke's Company's tangram-based DS puzzle game, is migrating to WiiWare in Q2. NEVES Plus, published by Yuke's affiliate Akinai Games, features the same gameplay as the DS version, in which players arrange seven shapes to fit into silhouettes. If the explanation isn't clicking for you, just try it!The WiiWare game, which is now Egyptian-themed for some reason, includes 500 puzzles, including some not found in the original. It also includes multiple modes for up to four players, including the ability for players to jump in at any time to help solve a puzzle or just bother you by waving a tiny hand around on the screen.%Gallery-48138%
