Nintendo has released its weekly bit of Wii and DSi content, and should you have either console, here is what you’ll get.

Wii:

  • You, Me & The Cubes (1,000 Wii Points)
  • Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 2 (1000 Wii Points)
  • R-Type (500 Wii Points)
  • Gameloft’s Sexy Poker (500 Wii Points)

For DSi there’s Yummy Yummy Cooking Jam (500 DSi Points), which challenges you to “cook for vampires, extraterrestrials, mafia thugs and Vikings, preparing everything from hot dogs to burritos before they storm out of your restaurant in a huff.”

Goodness. What a list, there.

Thanks, CVG.
