Got enough challenge in your daily routine? Chances are that basic
everyday tasks — getting to work or school on time, walking the dog,
taking out the trash — aren’t enough to keep you firing on all
cylinders. Luckily, Virtual Console is close at hand to help you test
your mettle in fresh and unusual ways. Whether you’re rescuing a
kidnapped pal or mastering a set of mind-bending grid puzzles, this

the late-winter blahs.
Nintendo adds new games to the Wii Shop
Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii owners with a
high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points to download the
games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail
outlets. This week’s new games are:
DoReMi Fantasy:
Milon’s DokiDoki Adventure (Super NES, 1 player, Rated E for
Everyone – Alcohol Reference and Comic Mischief, 900 Wii Points): This
is an action game where an energetic boy named Milon sets off on a great
adventure in a cute fairy-tale world. Piccolo is a village in the
country of Fantasia. One day, they hear from the fairy Alis that songs
and music have disappeared from the forest. Suddenly, the wizard Amon
appears, grabs Alis and vanishes with her. The brave Milon must now go
on a journey to rescue his kidnapped friend, with his bubble shooter as
his only weapon. Along the way, he’ll need to retrieve five legendary
instruments and stars by defeating Amon’s minions. Get ready to enjoy
the fun and comical action of this charming game.
Puyo Puyo 2 (Sega
Genesis, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone, 900 Wii Points): The object
of this head-to-head puzzle game is to clear your grid of falling
patterns called puyos by forming chains of four or more same-colored
puyos in a straight line or one of several geometric patterns. What
makes this a challenging two-player contest is the fact that when you
clear a chain of puyos from your grid, it drops a random piece of filler
onto your opponent’s grid. The more puyos you clear, the more you fill
your opponent’s grid, and if you can clutter up his grid enough to fill
it to the top, you’ve won the game. An intriguing backstory makes this
an amusing experience for one or two players.
