This week in Nintendo Downloads we have seven new titles.

The first of two WiiWare titles this week is Fishie Fishie, a simple fast-paced action game for up to four players that uses only one button on the Wii Remote. The game has seven modes and 100 levels, and its multiplayer modes take place on the same screen. Fishie Fishie is available on the Wii Shop Channel for 500 Wii Points ($5).

The second WiiWare game this week is Learning with the PooYoos: Episode 2, a game rated for Early Childhood use. This learning tool is the second in its series, featuring the PooYoos, a small group of talking animals. The game is designed for children who have not quite learned to read yet. Learning with the PooYoos: Episode 2 is available on the Wii Shop Channel for 500 Wii Points ($5).

The single release for Virtual Console this week is Ironclad for Neo Geo CD. The game is a side-scrolling shooter, in which you control a flying ship attacking oncoming enemies. Ironclad is the first release from the Neo Geo CD system, with an additional cost of 100 points. The game is available from the Wii Shop Channel for 1,000 Wii Points ($10).

On DSiWare this week, we have four games total. The first three games are from the Game & Watch series: Manhole, Helmet, and Vermin. Each game is available for 200 Nintendo DSi Points ($2) and they are both single-player experiences. In Game & Watch: Manhole, you cover up a manhole to prevent pedestrians from falling into the sewer. In Game & Watch: Helmet, you move a construction worker from the left side of the screen to the right side of the screen while dodging falling tools. Game & Watch: Vermin plays like Whack-A-Mole, as you attack moles that pop up out of the ground.

The last game this week for DSiWare is Mr. Driller: Drill Till You Drop. This single-player update of a classic franchise features 40 stages and three modes: Time Attack, Dristone, and Mission Mode. The game plays somewhat similarly to Dig Dug, as you dig down underground while monitoring your air supply and avoid being crushed by rocks. Mr. Driller: Drill Till You Drop is available on the DSi Shop for 500 Nintendo DSi Points ($5).
