Hurray! It's the first Virtual Console releases of the new year and we see our old Nintendo favourite Donkey Kong make an appearence.

For 800 Wii points, you can get your hands on Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble. The Kremlings have a mysterious new leader named KAOS and are up to their usual mischief, even capturing Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong. Now it's up to Dixie Kong and the newest Kong, a giant infant named Kiddy, to rescue the two missing apes.

They'll travel across previously unseen parts of the island in their search, and even take to the skies in a rocket at one point. Lucky for them, Dixie and Kiddy's powers complement each other (including Kiddy's talent for rolling like a barrel), so they form a powerful team capable of major Kremling damage. They're not completely on their own, either, since returning favorites like Funky Kong and Enguarde the swordfish provide help along the way.

Also on the console is Harvest Moon. For 800 Wii points you can become a farmer, sowing seeds, milking cows, herding sheep and shovelling s.... Anyway, It's not all back-breaking work and a high rate of suicide, you can even chat up the ladies and hope to get married and have kids. Yes, it's a realistic simulation - apart from the lack of getting shafted by supermarkets and increasing mountains of debt.

Anyway, more info here.
