It’s kind of a rare sight these days, but there is indeed new WiiWare in the Nintendo Download this week. None other than Indiana Jones Professor Lemeza makes his debut in La-Mulana.
An old school platformer, La-Mulana was released in Japan to some pretty solid reviews. I myself have heard some good things about the game, but I’ve never played it. From the page on Nintendo’s site, it does look pretty interesting- and definitely very SNES-like.
We also get a demo for The Denpa Men this week, which is a really oddball title that mashes up Augmented Reality and RPG. Looks sorta… different.
Oh, and a quick note for all you procrastinating Pokemon fans- this is the last week that the Pokedex 3D will be available for download onto your 3DS. Why, I have no idea, but you better grab it if you want it.

This is the last week for Pokedex 3D because Pokedex 3D Pro is coming out for B&W2, and apparently Nintendo doesn't like the idea of "lite" and "pro" apps coexisting, like they do on smartphones.
Okay, that sort of makes sense.
Your point is perfectly valid though- why not just have lite and pro options?
Let me guess – you have to buy the Pokedex 3D Pro?
