[wraggster]

Nintendo will launch the US 60Hz version of Punch-Out!!, the next Wii U Virtual Console release in Europe.The decision follows fan fury at the inferior 50Hz version of Balloon Fight (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-01-25-nintendo-using-inferior-50hz-mode-for-european-wii-u-virtual-console) launched on the PAL eShop in January.Nintendo of Europe subsequently shifted to the US 60Hz version of F-Zero last month (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-02-20-nintendo-releasing-us-60hz-version-of-f-zero-on-wii-u-virtual-console), a policy it is evidently continuing.Punch-Out!! launches on Wii U eShop this Thursday, priced just 30p (€0.30).Also on the eShop this week - digital versions of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (on Wii U priced £49.99/€59.99, on 3DS priced £39.99/€44.99) and Need for Speed: Most Wanted U (£44.99/€59.99).There's a huge sale on Ubisoft games too, with ZombiU and Assassin's Creed both nearly half price (£30 instead of £55). Enjoyable downloadable-only title Little Inferno is cut-down in price again as well.
