Review SonSon (Virtual Console / Virtual Console Arcade)
A chimp off the old block
Looking for an arcade game that resembles a side-scrolling Ice Climber in which you control a monkey that hurls fireballs at angry dinner plates? Then look no further! Capcom has seen it fit to release 1984's SonSon from its trove of arcade treasures, and while this isn't likely to be the game anybody was particularly...

Nintendo Download 17th December 2010 (Europe)
Lots and lots of catchup titles

Water, fire and much, much more
Never let it be said that the Nintendo Download lacks variety.

800 points? Ugh I hope not. We don't need another Zaxxon repeat.
If by Zaxxon repeat you mean that the game's too old for its own good, then all I can say is that Son Son is really worth it...though there are other Capcom collections where you could also get this on. ^^
@Keeperbvk: What I meant was charging 800 points for a game that looks like it should be 500 or maybe 600 points.
