European Nintendo downloads: Zombies Lit, BBQed My Ghost Mansion

by JC Fletcher { Oct 30th 2009 at 2:00PM }

Nintendo of Europe apparently believes Halloween is serious business and worth celebrating. Four of the five new downloadable games this week are in some way horror-themed! Zombies Ate My Neighbors arrives on Virtual Console in the same week as its North American release (under the European title Zombies), as does (unfortunately) Ghost Mansion Party. WayForward's LIT proves a more appropriate Halloween release than its Valentine's Day-adjacent release in the US would suggest.

Perhaps the biggest, scariest surprise of all: Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ is out in Europe, finally! And, while it was released on a cartridge here, it's an 800-point DSiWare download in Europe! No excising of zombie food talk for this one.

Zombies (SNES, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points)
LIT (WiiWare, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
Ghost Mansion Party (WiiWare, 1-4 players, 1,000 Wii Points)
Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ (DSiWare, 1 player, 800 DSi Points)
A Little Bit of ... All Time Classics: Card Classics (DSiWare, 1-8 players, 500 DSi Points)

And so begins Nintendo sticking their games up for download purchase only rather than selling physical copies.

If the DSi XL drops the cart slot completely, don't be surprised.
