Nintendo loves to bring games on the Virtual Console that feature Kirby. This week, American Wii gamers can expect Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards as well as Psychosis on the Virtual Console.
Details of the game on the American VC:
First up, we have the Nintendo 64 classic, Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. The game sees Kirby battling a new enemy called Dark Matter, who happens to be after a distant land’s powerful crystal. But a young fairy named Ribbon saves it by escaping with the gem to Dream Land. The crystal is broken and scattered around the world and Kirby has to collect all 100 pieces of the shattered crystal. The game features six worlds and gamers can expect many enemies as well as challenging bosses. There are three exhilarating multiplayer minigames also.
Next we have Psychosis, which first debuted on the TurboGrafx16. The game is a side-scrolling shooter. It is played in a world fashioned from the mind of a twisted demon. Gamers have to shoot their way past the monstrous creatures, which block the path in five causes (or stages). They have to make use of three shot types as well as a satellite option. They can also use power-ups to swap their shots for stuff like wide-coverage beam or a satellite-generated laser. What’s more, the enemy fire can be blocked by rotating the satellites to a preferred position.
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards will come with a price tag of 1,000 Wii Points. Comparatively, Psychosis is a little cheaper as it costs just 600 Wii Points. Both these games are already up on the Wii Virtual Console. Just a few months ago, Nintendo had put Kirby’s Dream Course on the VC.
