After two weeks of nothing on the Virtual Console in North America, the first week in Europe post-Hanabi Festival offers ... also nothing. No Virtual Console games. This is a bit troubling, on account of the fact that we like Virtual Console games.

We can only distract ourselves from our increasing panic with a decent-looking WiiWare selection -- three games, one of which is the first Tales of Monkey Island (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/07/07/review-tales-of-monkey-island-launch-of-the-screaming-narwhal/). And on DSiWare, Guitar Rock Tour, from the shockingly wealthy Gameloft.

Driift Mania (WiiWare, 1-8 players, 800 Wii Points)

The Three Musketeers: One for All! (WiiWare, 1-3 players, 700 Wii Points)
