Two Virtual Console games are releasing for Wii U in North America this week. According to Nintendo’s website, Detana Twin Bee and China Warrior will be out tomorrow.

Here’s an overview of Detana Twin Bee:

Here come Twinbee and Winbee on a mission to save the planet from evil alien invaders! Standing in their way are six stages full of goofy enemies! Play as Twinbee in one-player mode, or team up with Winbee in two-player-cooperative mode. With powerful attacks like Big Shot, or Twin Attack and Burst Attack in two-player mode, there’s plenty of sting in their arsenal! Use your Shot to transform Bells that appear in stages into items with various effects. Stock up on these bad boys to expand your attack range and really have a blast!

And China Warrior:

It’s up to the kung-fu master Wang to defeat the Dark Emperor, who stands at the top of the kung-fu world in China. Punch, kick, and jump kick your way through all the enemies in the path between you and the three bosses of each stage. Skillfully fight your way through all 4 stages. Be sure not to miss recovery items while dodging enemy attacks! One-on-one fights against the game’s realistic bosses will get you so excited that you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of a kung-fu movie!

Detana Twin Bee and China Warrior will be priced at $5.99 each.

The Wii U Virtual Console still seems to be going strong. While they were made available previously in Japan, six more games have been rated for release in North America.

Lords of Thunder, Legend of Hero Tonma, Digital Champ: Battle Boxing, Detana Twin Bee, Break In, and Power Golf should be out in the near future. No definitive date yet, but these ratings signify that they’re dropping sooner rather than later.

Miiverse

Miiverse was assumed to be ending after text found within the latest Wii U update mentioned the service’s end. This week, Nintendo confirmed the speculation. Miiverse is coming to a close on November 7 at 10 PM PT / November 8 at 1 AM ET.

The end of Miiverse will ultimately impact many games across Wii U and 3DS. If you’d like to know which ones will be affected, head past the break for the full list.
