If you don't have Wii Points you'd better collect around 800 somehow, because at least one of this week's Virtual Console downloadables is a must have classic title. Every week, Nintendo throws in classic arcade titles or older titles from older systems such as the NES, SNES, SEGA
Genesis, Turbografx16 and so on. This week is no different, as the Wii's creators are making available two must have classic games: Kirby's Ghost Trap and Devil's Crush. Their descriptions and pricing can be found if you read on.

As the Nintendo's official report informs...First up this week is Kirby's Ghost Trap, originally available on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1995. Players must battle Kirby's adversaries by strategically stacking and blending fast paced, color-coded blobs! These blobs form huge chain reactions which in turn will cause a plethora of ghosts to fall on your opponent! With 16 levels of fast-paced action and familiar enemies from the Kirby universe to defeat, this is one puzzle game you don't want to miss! Kirby's Ghost Trap is available on Virtual Console this week for 800 Wii Points.

As for Devil's Crush... Get those fingers ready to flip as pinball simulation game Devil's Crush makes its way onto the Virtual Console. Originally released for Turbografx in 1990, Devil's Crush is the sequel to the successful Alien Crush. The fast-paced game sees players using the Devil Shooter to propel a ball onto a pinball board and using flippers to keep it in play and rack up a high score. After successfully completing certain conditions, up to six different bonus stages can be unlocked! Set against a ghoulish backdrop with ominous wandering enemies, this pinball game will flip your paddles! Devil's Crush is available for download for 600 Wii Points.

These additions are just the latest titles added to the list of classics up on Virtual Console. Adding these two, there are currently 116 classic titles available for download in Europe. What are you waiting for? You know you've got those Wii points.
