What could be better than taking control of 100 cute alien critters in a mysterious world? Taking control of 100 wonderful super heroes, perhaps! The latest crazy adventure from the masterminds behind Viewtiful Joe is here and if you purchased Pikmin 3, it's available at a discount price.
Elsewhere, Yoshinori Ono, creator of Street Fighter, answered a question on Twitter recently regarding the Wii U and his hit series. Sadly it seems that Capcom have no plans to bring the fight to Wii U (in HD form) but thankfully we'll still get a healthy dose of the earlier entries, three of them, in fact, on Wii U Virtual Console!
Scroll down for the full list of titles available this Thursday!
