Super Mario Advance is coming to the North American Wii U Virtual Console tomorrow, Nintendo’s website confirms. The game will be available for $7.99.

If you’d like a quick refresher of Super Mario Advance, check out the summary below:

Mario and his friends return in this 2-in-1 bundle filled with classic platforming, memorable graphics, and catchy music. Play Super Mario Bros. 2, where Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Toad journey to a magical land to save it from an evil frog named Wart. Or play Mario Bros., and try to defeat as many enemies as possible. Both games are remakes of the original NES releases and offer hours of running, jumping, lifting, and POW action!

We first found out about Get Off My Lawn! this past summer. Digital Leisure has now shared concrete details about the game, and we have a trailer as well.

Get Off My Lawn! is a free-to-play arcade shooter. Players take on the role of 78-year-old Murray Mendelson, who must keep endless waves of aliens off his lawn by taking them down with his musket. As you defeat more aliens, the tougher they become.

Players will be able to collect orbs, which can be used to upgrade weaponry. Power-ups include “Cane Time”, “Infuriate”, and “Soundwave”.

Get Off My Lawn! will be released on various platforms on November 11. However, the Wii U version will arrive later this winter.
