VVVVVV finally heads to Europe in this week's update...

The week's downloads for Europe have been revealed, with another varied spread across all three of Nintendo's platforms.

Retro-styled and ultra-difficult platformer VVVVVV finally gets its release on the European eShop courtesy of Nicalis. The indie publisher will next be looking to publish NightSky and Cave Story+ on the platform.

Meanwhile on Wii, there's a certain theme with not one but two Wonder Boy titles hitting Virtual Console. The arcade version of the second game, Wonder Boy in Monster Land, gets a release at 900 Points. The sixth and final game in the series, Monster World IV, also gets a European release for the first time ever at the same price tag.
