Not a ton of big name stuff this week, but an infamous little pen and paper time waster makes it’s way to the 3DS.
Sudoku by Nikoli comes to the portable from the company that gave the popular number puzzle its name. So if anybody could make a decent electronic edition, it’s probably them (him?).
The Virtual Console (on the Wii, don’t get too excited) gets some love with a pair of releases from Sega’s Monster World series. Both Wonder Boy in Monster Land and Monster World IV make appearances straight from the classic Master System console. Congratulaaaaaaaaaations!
