Capcom have brought the 1990 NES title Mega Man 2 to the Virtual Console this week. The is the second in the classic series and considered by many as one of the best.

To bring end to the chaos, players must battle through each stage, defeating each Robot Master and gaining the robots' signature weapon before moving on to destroy Dr Wily's Fortress. It's out now and costs 500 Wii Points.
Also this week is NEOGEO comical arcade action title Top Hunter, in which players must assume the role of one of the dynamic freedom fighters Roddy and Cathy as they play solo or with a friend, to battle across planets of forest, ice, wind and fire! Making use of extendible arms to snatch items, power ups and even startled enemies. Players must take on robot-riding bosses and seek out a variety of secret mini-games. It's available now for 900 Wii Points.
