After a week of releases that led to the introduction of the Commodore 64 last week, Europe's Virtual Console regresses back to a single game this week.

That game? Yoshi's Cookie for the NES. It is a puzzler, where the goal is to mix and match cookies by rotating rows and columns.


Single game recap:

  • NES: Yoshi's Cookie, 1-2 Players, 500 Points

    Keep track of the latest VC releases with the 2008 edition of What's New on VC? in the Wii Virtual Console forum.

    So what’s up for grabs on the European Virtual Console update this week? Well, sadly nothing other than a rather lonely looking Yoshi’s Cookie!

    It is hard to get too enthusiastic as the VC already has an abundance of Nintendo puzzlers such as Mario & Yoshi, Wario’s Woods, etc but it is not such a bad thing that this has finally come out even if it is the less attractive NES version opposed to the SNES version we might have preferred.

    With Mario Kart Wii coming out on April 11th in the EU it seems like a huge oversight on Nintendo’s part not to have released Mario Kart SNES today but this won’t be the first time that Nintendo of Europe have shattered our expectations but we still love them don’t we?

    At the very least they could have released DoReMi Fantasy this week to catch up with the USA.

    Oh well, rant over – Yoshi’s Cookie might entertain some. Check out Drake’s review and make your own mind up.

      I have Yoshi's Cookie on Gameboy, so there's no point in me downloading it.
