Nintendo Downloads for August 16, 2010

Time for another week of new Nintendo DSi and Wii downloads. There’s a fairly small batch of new games and apps available this week – only two WiiWare and four DSiWare games waiting.

Sadly, there’s not much to get excited about. There are no highly anticipated new games, nothing really looks like a surprise hit and there’s not even a classic Virtual Console game to enjoy. The only game that may have potential is Divergent Shift (DSiWare), but the screenshots I’ve seen for that look unimpressive and it’s $8. A Monsteca Corral: Monsters vs. Robots (WiiWare) might be okay too, especially since it has four player multiplayer.

There are no Gamertell’s Nintendo Download picks this week.
