Wii Virtual Console

Wii owners have significantly less to choose from compared to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 owners, but two retro games can't be sniffed at. StarTropics is an action adventure game from Nintendo, first released on the NES back in 1990. Although it looks more than a little ropey these days, 400 Wii Points makes it worth a punt.

SEGA's Alien Storm hit the Mega Drive back in 1991 and offers similar side-scrolling arcade action, making it similar to Golden Axe and Altered Beast except with guns. Two-player co-op play adds to the fun, so if you're after some arcade-action, this 800 Wii Point shooter might be worth a look.

It's fair to say that Xbox 360 owners certainly have the best line-up of downloadable content this week.

If you happen to like a bit of Britney Spears, the eight music videos are also exclusive to the Xbox 360.
