I have never had an ant colony growing, because my thought process was always “Really, a box of ants in some sand WTF?” Besides, I was always afraid they’d bust out and lay eggs in my mouth while I was sleeping, even though I’m pretty sure that’s not scientifically possible.
Where am I going with this? Konami’s ant-slave simulator,Ant Nation(1 player, 700 Wii Points)is available for WiiWare today. It’s what you’d think — you train a colony of Super Ants. That’s what you thought, right? Also hitting WiiWare world isBit Boy!!(1-2 players, 600 Wii Points), devloper Bplus’ crazy pixel adventure that spans 4-bit through 128-bit worlds. And you can get your strategy/action with withIncoming!(1-2 players, 500 Wii Points), which features tank characters with human eyes.
Gameloft thinks you’re stupid or lazy, because it’s delivering another brain exercise game to DSiWare today.Brain Challenge(1 player, 800 Nintendo DSi Points)will test your brain in Math, Logic, Focus, Memory, and Visual. Use this once again, and you’ll be the most well-tuned human soldier by the year 2099.
Finally, Virtual Console gets hit with two titles that originally hit Sega platforms: Sega’s ownSecret Command(1-2 players, 600 Wii Points)which originally hit the Master System, and Game Freak’sPulseman(1 player, 900 Wii Points). Yes, that’s the same Game Freak responsible for thePokemontitles; there are even Pulseman references in Nintendo’s pocket monster wrangling games. Gotta find ’em all!
