From Nintendo:
Virtual Console™ on Wii U™
PAC-MAN® – Control iconic character Pac-Man as you navigate through mazes, eating Pac-Dots and simultaneously avoiding devious ghosts. Warp from one edge of the maze to the other using tunnels, or eat a Power Pellet to turn the tables and make the ghosts vulnerable. Earn extra points to achieve the high score and see how far you can get before losing all your lives.
MEGA MAN™ – Join the blue bomber in his first ever adventure as he battles the evil Dr. Wily and his robotic henchmen. Mega Man is a super robot created by the genius scientist Dr. Light. When another scientist by the name of Dr. Wily goes rogue with an army of six of his own devious Robot Masters, it's up to Mega Man to put a stop to his nefarious plot by traversing a series of stages rife with enemies, traps and perilous platform challenges. Mega Man was originally released for the Nintendo Entertainment System™ in 1987.
Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS™
BearShark – BearShark, the hit animated 3D series exclusively on Nintendo Video™, has inspired a game. Play as Steve, last of his bloodline, as you run, jump and swim for your life from the top predators of land and sea.
Virtual Console on Nintendo 3DS™
Balloon Fight™ – Don't be fooled by the simple premise of Balloon Fight: Underneath the game's cute exterior you'll find a surprisingly challenging game with strategy to spare.
