We're quite happy to see them returning, just as you undoubtedly are.Today's update brings news of a new kind of item: the Golden Hammer. As a more powerful and rare form of the normal hammer, it allows players to float in the air. And, like the normal hammer, it's also known to occasionally be a dud.%Gallery-6869%%Gallery-3347%Read - Ice ClimbersRead - Golden Hammer

    Another week and another round of old school games for your weekend enjoyment. This time, there's some variety, so we'll hope that everyone who is so inclined can find something worth playing. As a special bonus, they're all toward the lower end of Virtual Console pricing, which isn't bad, either. Any of these tickle your proverbial fancy?
