Only one title is being released on the Virtual Console this Monday. It's none other than the fighter Double Dragon, which PAL received this past Friday. Titles releasing by themselves seems to be popular for this week because Wii's weekly games aren't plentiful this week either.
Double Dragon (NES - 500 Wii Points)
Finally the NES conversion of the hit arcade game Double Dragon is here! The game follows twin brothers, Billy and Jimmy Lee, both trained in the martial art of Sou-Setsu-Ken. They run a small school teaching others in the art of Sou-Setsu-Ken for self defence. Billy's girlfriend, Marian, is kidnapped and the brothers find a note from Willy (leader of the 'Black Warriors' gang) telling them to reveal their fighting secrets in exchange for Marian's life. The brothers set out across the city fighting bad guys to save Marian!
Another of the original hit beat 'em ups that lead to the likes of Final Fight is here. Using basic kicks and punches as well as elbow strikes and weapons has became a cult hit. Movement was left to directional buttons while attacks were handled by the face buttons.

Coming Soon
In the coming weeks, the Virtual Console will be getting lots of variety. Staying with the fighting genre, you will soon be able to have fights in the streets of Brooklyn in the NES title Renegade for 500 Wii Points. If flying simulators is more of your thing then Aerofighters Assault or the original Pilotwings are the games designed for you; which are only 1000 and 800 WiiPoints respectively. For the fans of the pink puff ball, Kirby's Dreamland 3 will be arriving soon for only 800 Wii Points in order for you to save Dreamland once again and figure out what has gotten into King Dedede.
