The other NintendoWare services were not left out though. Here is a list of all of the virtual Nintendo releases for this week:

WiiWare

My Little Baby (dtp young entertainment, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): Your very own fake electronic baby to feed, play with, bathe, change …

Demo: Bit.Trip Core (Aksys Games, 1-2 players, 0 Wii Points): The second game in the Bit.Trip series uses the D-pad to hit “beats” that come toward the middle of the screen in time with the music. It’s the newest iteration of a popular classic gaming inspired series.

Virtual Console

Mega Man X (SNES, 1 player, 800 Wii Points): The first SNES Mega Man game is set in the “future” of the series, with a new Mega Man, new enemies, and a new wall-grab move.

DSiWare

GO Series Captain Sub (Gamebridge, 1 player, 200 DSi Points): Control a cute little submarine, and grab undersea treasure with your mechanical arm.

DodoGo! Robo (Neko Entertainment, 1 player, 200 DSi Points): Alter environments by digging, sawing, etc., to create safe paths for Robo-Eggs.

Music On: Learning Piano Volume 2 (Abylight, 1 player, 200 DSi Points): Turns out a single 200-point DSiWare app didn’t quite finish teaching you piano.
