Plenty of retail goodness coming soon, but very little for Virtual Console fans.
Another week, another download! This time around most of our releases are mostly downloadable versions of retail games, and one major eShop exclusive: Pheonix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies. We’re also given a few more Virtual Console titles, although they probably aren’t going to surprise the pants of too many potential customers.
I really hope Nintendo doesn’t forget the eShop and Virtual Console during the impending holiday season. Yeah, I know the holidays are all about retail, but us download aficionados need love too!

Reminding us that digital-only games are still worth our time, here comes Phoenix Wright! Put those baddies behind bars as Apollo Justice and a slew of other people whose names I always forget! If you’re not sold on the game, then check out the demo also available on the eShop.
3DS Virtual Console
No, you read that right, this is Star Soldier, not Super Star Soldier. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t worth your time! In this first entry in the series you’ll be battling it out against Starbrain in an effort to rid the galaxy of…well, of whatever nasty stuff he’s put in it! With 16 stages and many power ups, shmup fans will probably still enjoy this entry.
Wii U Virtual Console
If Golf didn’t satisfy you then maybe Baseball will. No, it’s probably not the best baseball game on the NES, but if you’re in the mood for a Nintendo history lesson then you might want to check this one out.
Continuing the now two week old tradition of releasing only games with single word titles on the Wii U Virtual Console, is Pinball. What will they think of next? How many single word titles are there on the NES? Probably more than anyone would like to remember…
