Are you willing to pay five bucks for Cut The Rope?

European gamers can look forward to four new games that will hit the download services on Thursday.

Nintendo eShop users will be able to download a new 3D Classic in the form of TwinBee. The classic shoot'em up puts you behind the wheels of the powerful TwinBee fighter craft in which you will have to defend Donburi Island. Players will have to aim at flying foes, as well as drop bombs on enemies below. Various power-ups can be found by shooting bells and changing up their color scheme. Once a bell is collected, your TwinBee will be more powerful then ever before! 3D Classics TwinBee will set you back £4.50/€5.00.

DSiWare enthusiasts will have two new games to keep them occupied this week, one of which is Anonymous Notes: Chapter 2 - From The Abyss. The RPG takes place in a monster-filled dungeon where players must ultimately fight a powerful boss. The game offers replayability through randomly generated dungeons. Combat includes the Soul Capture move, which allow you to steal weapons and magic from your enemies. Anonymous Notes is yours for either €2.00/£1.80 on the Nintendo eShop or 200 Points on the Nintendo DSi Shop.

The other new game on DSiWare is Cut The Rope, which many people might know as a very popular game on iOS devices. In this game you need to help Om Nom, an adorable monster who is totally addicted to candy. Your job is to cut ropes and solve mind-bending puzzles to get the candy to the little guy. This premium version of Cut The Rope can be downloaded for either £4.50/€5.00 on the Nintendo eShop or 500 Points on the Nintendo DSi Shop.

Finally, on WiiWare, we have 101-in-1 Explosive Megamix from Nordcurrent. In this mass collection of mini-game mayhem, there should be something for everyone. There are puzzle games, sports games and even some arcade classics to keep on the edge of your seat. 101-in-1 Explosive Megamix will cost you 700 Points.

Talkback

For the longest time I've only known Twinbee and the whole bell system from Parodius. The arcade original is on the Konami Arcade Classics cart for the original DS which is dirt cheap these days and includes a ton of games.


Kinda odd that an RPG can go for 2$ while Cut The Rope has to cost 5. Or did the developer decide on that price?
