We're not yet to the point of spoopy, but it helps.
As we get ready for a little video in a bit, the downloads have a couple of interesting movers this week. The Wii U in North America gets its SteamWorld Heist - we'll have a review for that later today - with a nice offer if you get in early, much like the 3DS version. There's also 13AMGames's first publishing effort in Pirate Pop Plus, with crossbuy available as long as you have an upgraded 3DS.
The Wii U Virtual Console will pick up The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, which is perfect for a day that's all about the hype train, while the New 3DS picks up an RPG (shocking) in the original Breath of Fire. And the world is crawling all over (a small part of) Alola with the demo for Pokémon Sun and Moon.
Europe has a stanking sale, and Rhythm Paradise (aka Heaven) Megamix is finally out across the pond (and it's available physically, if that's your bag). Project Zero (Fatal Frame) 2 Wii edition is also available as a download for the Wii U today.
