Icarian - WiiWare

Out today in America:

NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits – 1000 Nintendo Points

Experience the awesome story of Nyx, an enigmatic winged girl, that must descend from heaven in search of her missing friend Icarus. Fly over the ruins of ancient Greece and avoid falling into blazing sands or perishing in the claws of cruel harpies and hydras. You will need the help of Zeus and other benevolent gods from Olympus to summon their powers. They will let you cast rays, modify the scenery and control winds at your wish. With your own wrist movements and pointing to the game screen, you will be able to achieve these and many other feats in this new and enjoyable Wii platform game. Fly, aim and shoot using the new and fullest potential of your Wii Remote. A game for one or two players. Play with a friend and maximize your abilities, while one controls Nyx, the other will control the powers from the gods!

Rock N’ Roll Climber – 800 Nintendo Points

Prepare to “rock out” like never before in Rock N’ Roll Climber. Climb rocks using the innovative control scheme, which has you controlling your character’s movement using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers. If you want an even more immersive experience, optional support for the Wii Balance Board is also available. Make your way up an array of courses, ranging from the Pop level’s indoor rock wall to the Heavy Metal level’s waterfalls (watch out for those moss-covered rocks – they’re slick). In addition to the sense of accomplishment you’ll feel upon reaching the top, you might just be rewarded with your own guitar.

The SNES version of Super Star Wars is also out on the Virtual Console, costing 800 Nintendo Points
