The WiiWare service seems to be a haven for returning franchises, with Contra ReBirth joining other classic games including Rainbow Islands and Puzzle Bobble. The Contra series is perhaps best known for its brutal gameplay, where players have to progress through 2D side-scrolling levels and shoot anything that fights back. What makes it so challenging? The fact you will die instantly if you take a single hit. It’s old school gaming at its finest! The game will set you back 1000 Wii points.
6 in 1 Dictionary with Camera Function is a software application which lets you translate words across six different languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Japanese. The application also lets you take pictures of a word using the DSi camera, and it will supposedly be able to recognise and translate it instantly - yep, we don’t even want to imagine the potential lost in translation moments that could arise from that one. The application will set you back 800 DSi points.
*Please note that Contra ReBirth is not available on the Australian Wii Shop Channel.
