WiiWARE - FINAL FANTASY IV: THE AFTER YEARS
(SQUARE ENIX, 800 Wii Points):
FINAL FANTASY IV: THE AFTER YEARS is the sequel to the hit RPG, Final Fantasy IV. The story takes place many years after the original and centres on a young man named Ceodore, the son of the paladin, Cecil, and the white mage, Rosa, who with their loyal and steadfast friends once saved the world from the evil born of the second moon.

Monsters have now begun reappearing in a world that had finally attained peace. The second moon has returned anew. What tidings does this ominous harbinger bring? Familiar faces and new allies join the battle to save the Blue Planet once more from a yet darker threat.

Plus – continue the adventure with additional chapters to download via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection; the first of which, Rydia’s Tale, is available from today for 300 Wii Points.

NINTENDO DSiWARE - ART STYLE: KUBOS
(NINTENDO, 500 DSi Points):
The Art Style series brings you unique, simple-to-play games with striking visuals and immersive sound.

In KUBOS your aim is to climb a tower of cubes which becomes higher as new cubes drop from above. Walk across the cubes to score points, avoiding being crushed by the falling cubes; but keep climbing or you’ll fall when the lower cubes disappear.

In TEN FLOORS mode, try to reach the 10th floor while scoring as many points as possible. In TOWER mode, simply climb as high as you can. Quickly defuse Bomb cubes before they blow a hole in your tower, and remove obstructing cubes with a gentle shove or a huge Cube Blast!

NINTENDO DSiWARE - ANIMAL CROSSING CLOCK
(NINTENDO, 200 DSi Points):
With the Animal Crossing Clock, wherever you go, you’ll always have time! Wake up with your favourite Animal Crossing music, or simply use the Nintendo DSi as a desktop clock complete with authentic Animal Crossing background. You can even compose a Town Tune to play at the top of every hour!

Customise the clock to your liking: choose from analogue or digital displays, 12h or 24h modes, and set up to three separate alarms with different Animal Crossing tunes, or use your own saved sounds from the Nintendo DSi Sound application.

NINTENDO DSiWARE - ANIMAL CROSSING CALCULATOR
(NINTENDO, 200 DSi Points):
Make maths more fun with this Animal Crossing-themed calculator! Simply use the Touch Screen to enter figures and make calculations, and you’ll see and hear your favourite Animal Crossing visuals and sounds

As well as a fully-featured calculator, also included is a Unit Converter for converting to and from a variety of different measurements such as weight, length, speed, temperature and more. You can even convert human years to animal years!
