Kirby: Canvas Curse And Animal Crossing: Wild World Available Now On Wii U Virtual Console
The Wii U got two well-received DS games on the Virtual Console today.
Kirby: Canvas Curse is the main draw of today's update. Turned into a ball by a witch, Kirby must navigate the world using a rainbow colored line while absorbing abilities and trying to return to normal. This game will be great for people who enjoyed Rainbow Curse though without all the adorable claymation.
If you'd like to take life a little slower you can chill out with Animal Crossing: Wild World. This finally gives the Wii U a proper game in the series, Collect various bugs, fish, and villagers while trying to distract yourself from the crushing debt you accumulate so your house can have a small basement. Both games are priced at $9.99
Our Take
I can't wait to have a ball with Canvas Curse, especially after having so much fun with Rainbow Curse. On the other hand Wild World seems like a strange choice since New Leaf is getting an update for amiibo functionality soon.
