Nintendo Download Update (22/1) – Apes of Wrath

Got a Wii U? Like Donkey Kong? Well, you’re in luck, because that’s the majority of this weeks update! Other than ATLUS’ new game Citizens of Earth, the Wii U is getting 3 classic DK games, including our second Wii downloadable game! Donkey Kong Country Returns will be $13 for a week upon release, which is half price. Probably worth getting, even if you have a disc copy somewhere. Gotta love not swapping discs!

The 3DS is also getting Citizens of Earth, with a bit of a cross buy promotion going on, if you own a copy of the game on the other console. On top of that, there’s two ATLUS games on sale this week, as well as 3 NES themes for your home screen. The themes usually go up on the Saturday, so keep your eyes peeled!

So that’s it from us, what are you grabbing this week?
