Virtual Console releases: OMG SEX GAME

There are a total of four games coming out from Nintendo this week, but let's be honest -- the other ones are kind of shoved out of the spotlight by the fact that one of them is called Sexy Poker and was banned in Australia before somehow making it's way onto WiiWare for today's release. I suddenly feel like I've fallen into a time portal that dropped me straight into 1984. Is this happening?

Originally a mobile title from Gameloft, this WiiWare adaption of course tones it down so the racy action is limited to stripping down to lingerie instead of total nudity, but still ... this is happening! On the Wii! It's 500 points and has a mature rating, so if you're curious you should download it just on the principle that it's WiiWare's first (and probably only) "sexy" title. By the way, the picture above is not from the game, but it does bring back lovely memories of all the hilariously campy sexy games I've played over the years.

Also available for WiiWare this week is Overturn, a robot fighting game that can accomodate up to four players. Virtual Console fans can also grab Tecmo Bowl for 600 points or check out Art Style: precipice for the DSi for 500 points. Seriously, though ... I feel sorry for these other titles. How can you compete when you're going up against Sexy Poker?
