Three more Virtual Console games are making their way to Wii U in North America this week. Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos, Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom, and Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones are all due out tomorrow.

All three Virtual Console releases are priced at $4.99 each. Brief overviews are posted below.

Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos

“The Emperor of Darkness, Ashtar, is on the move following his servant’s failure. It’s up to Ryu Hayabusa to save the day again! Pick up items that will provide increased abilities, like splitting Ryu into three. Destroy enemies with the Invincible Fire Wheel and other powerful ninjutsu techniques.”

Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom

“Join master ninja Ryu Hayabusa, last member of the famous Dragon Clan, in the third and final chapter of the legendary Ninja Gaiden saga. Ryu is framed for FBI agent Irene Lew’s murder, and it’s up to him to clear his name. Defeating superior life-forms created out of “”life energy” called BIO-NOIDs and avoiding enemy ambushes are among the many obstacles which Ryu faces in this unpredictable adventure of mystery, deceit, and destruction. Ryu’s techniques have improved from last time—his ability to grab on to horizontal surfaces, his reduced falling speed and altered jumping maneuvers, as well as using power-ups give Ryu that extra advantage against his foes. Help Ryu defeat the forces of evil once more and discover the real culprit behind Irene’s death as one of the most loved trilogies in video-game history comes to a close!”

Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones

“Join the Lee brothers as they head on a worldwide search for their friend Marion and the powerful Sacred Stones. Defeat your enemies using a collection of martial-art moves, including those of enemies that join your quest. Play solo or together with another player as you finally reach the evil mastermind behind Marion’s kidnapping.”

Just stay away from DD3. I think this game is so frustrating compared to DD2 on Nes.

Sigh another week without Super Mario RPG and Kirby Mass Attack.

Nice. One day I'm going to be beat the Ninja Gaiden trilogy.

And I'm going to use a whole lot of restore points doing that.

getting all three. transferring both ninja gaiden games to wii u

Awesome! Strong week. NoA has been on a roll with the VC lately.

Well, I have DD 1 & 2 NES on Wii U, should pobably get 3 as well lol

Heh, I'm glad that NOA is rolling out the VC service in a more concise manner. Obviously not long awaited titles and some of witch we already got in wii or 3ds mode but it definitely beats out the slow trickle or no vc at all from the past.

(3ds vc sits quietly in the corner)

Looks like it truly is a dead week for EU then, I was convinced we'd get something because no VC has meant Nintendo Direct on Wednesday/Thursday in the past but it's too late for Nintendo to announce one. Sounding a lot like EU is getting these days what NA got a lot of in the early Wii U days, nothing. (NA playing catchup)
