Pokémon, volleyball, Hello Kitty and more this week!

This week isn't as heavy as last weeks, it seems, but there are still some games here to whet your appetite. If you've been looking to play anything that has Pokémon in it, Pokémon Battle Trozei will be sure to satisfy your fix. Ever wanted to play chess or volleyball in digital form? Well good news for you this week! Nothing this week is a megaton blockbuster, but there's still plenty to like.

Wii U eShop

Pure Chess - $7.99

Since I have no idea how to play chess the proper way (aside from looking at the figurines and thinking they're cool looking), the tutorial modes in this game from VooFoo Studios will probably give me a great idea as to how to play the game. Soon enough, I'll become the best chess master in the world, and replace the old guy that was on those Chessmaster 3000 games for so many years.

Hello Kitty Cruisers - $19.95

Mario has finally found his arch rival in racing as Hello Kitty and pals have taken it to the road! The infamous kitty and her pals will be able to soar the skies and race on the sea. For being such a recognizable figure, I know zero of Hello Kitty's friends. I think there's a frog. I don't know who else is Hello Kitty's friend.

3DS eShop

Pokemon Battle Trozei - $7.99

I have no idea what a Trozei is. All I do know is that Trozei is a Pokémon-themed puzzle game that is out today in North America. If you've been looking to grab it, now's your chance. So now that we got the obligatory non-RPG...is it time for Hoenn? One can only hope...

Pure Chess - $7.99

It's the same title that's on the Wii U, but on the 3DS. I've always wanted a portable version of chess, and now here it is! In all honesty though, I don't think I've ever learned how to play the game properly. I have a better idea of how to play checkers. But there is no Pure Checkers out there, now is there? (Or maybe I just gave the developers a brilliant idea for a sequel!)

Yumi's Odd Odyssey - $29.99

Yumi's Odd Odyssey will have you coasting through levels using a fishing pole. Think Bionic Commando...except not. You'll also have to avoid all those weird walking fish that might impede you along the way.

Wii U Virtual Console

Volleyball - $4.99

Move over, Super Mario Bros. 3, the real game everyone's been wanting on the Wii U is now out-- Volleyball! The 1986 classic is now available for you to own on the Wii U console. That ten minutes you'll spend clunkily playing volleyball will be magical, I'm sure.
