It's another slow week in Nintendo Downloads.

If you thought the last few weeks were slow, this week has them all beat. The releases for this week included both Life Force, for the 3DS VC, and Mighty Bomb Jack, on the Wii U VC. That's it.

3DS eShop Sales

Fractured Soul - $5.99, until February 6

Shin Megami Tensei IV - $29.99, from January 27 to February 3

3DS Virtual Console

Life Force - $4.99

Life Force, also known as Salamander, is s spin-off of Gradius, a popular side-scrolling shoot 'em up series. Just like in Gradius, you have control of the Vic Viper, a powerful ship that can take advantage of various power-ups to up its arsenal. There are six stages to fly through filled with waves of enemies.

Wii U Virtual Console

Mighty Bomb Jack - $4.99

In Mighty Bomb Jack you bomb your way through 16 levels of a pyramid in order to save the royal family of Pamera from the clutches of the demon Belzebut. You'll have to brave both enemies and the timer alike if you want to save the royal family from harm in this classic NES title.

Really, Nintendo?  This is just getting sad...  :'(

Yeah.... I know everyone is saying this, but I just wish they would release more games on VC!!  I don't have any type of classic/pro controller because I used to use my Gamecube Wavebird, so I have a bunch of SNES games just sitting there in Wii Mode - unable to be played.  I can't spare the cash right now to buy a new controller, so it's just frustrating...

Wow! Great job Nintendo. I don't understand why they don't get it. :'( :-[ :@
