It's another Monday, and another three games were added to the North American Wii Shop Channel today, in the form of two WiiWare games and one Virtual Console game.

The first WiiWare game today is High Voltage Hot Rod Show from High Voltage Software. It is an offroad racing game, where players take their hot rods around a variety of courses with numberous ramps, power slides, hops, and tricks. Up to four players can join in on the action, or they can take it up against seven CPU opponents in Championship Mode. Online leaderboards will be available for those who want to upload their top times.

The other WiiWare title is Family Glide Hockey from Aksys Games. Up to four players can get in on the action in this game of air hockey, with a bunch of different locales to get your game on. Hone your skills in single-player mode or versus mode.

The lone Virtual Console title this week is the celebrated shoot-em-up MUSHA for the Sega Genesis. Developed by legendary development studio Compile, the game stars MUSHA pilot Terri to eliminate the sentient computer Dire 51, which threatens all of humankind. Blast through seven levels to reach and destroy Dire 51 with an array of special weapons and formations for your subweapons.

      Nothing good this time except for MAYBE Family Glide Hockey, which I WON'T be spending my money on. Even that seems pretty lame.
