The Virtual Console takes a break in the first Nintendo Download of 2011.

This week's downloads presents us with 2 WiiWare titles, a WiiWare demo, and three releases on DSiWare.

The first game available this week is Sneezies from Chillingo. Players use their Wii Remotes to drop sneezing powder into a field of floating Sneezies and watch them burst their bubbles in chain reactions.There are more than 45 levels to play through in Classic Mode and another 15 in Challenge Mode. All of these levels can be yours for 500 Nintendo Points ($5).

This week’s other WiiWare game comes from Legendo Entertainment. Ghost Mania offers a different take on the falling-block genre. The goal of the game is to catch all of the ghosts before it's too late. There are 70+ levels to enjoy as well as four different game modes, those being Arcade Mode, Puzzle Mode, Endless Mode and Party Mode. Like Sneezies, this puzzle game will set you back only 500 Nintendo Points ($5).

Robox was released on WiiWare in November and this week players can enjoy a free demo of the game.

On the DSiWare service, Abylight has released another game in the Music On series, this one focusing on drums. The game features 160 different sounds, which can be used to create different musical arrangements. After figuring out patterns, players can then use them to create a much more complicated production in Song mode. In order to sign up it will cost you 500 Nintendo Points ($5).

Word Searcher 2 from Digital Leisure is also available this week. As the title suggests, Word Searcher 2 is a word search game that features more than 100 themed word search puzzles. These 100 puzzles can be yours for 500 Nintendo Points ($5).

Today’s final game is Alt-Play: Jason Rohrer Anthology. This is a compilation of award winning games from auteur Jason Rohrer, and includes Passage, Gravitation, and Between. The game is a mere 200 Nintendo Points ($2), so those whose interest has been slightly awakened can check out the game for themselves at a budget price.
