Good to see Donkey Kong Country back after the games disappeared from the Wii VC for no reason.

Yeah, I agree with that!

Also interesting (but I guess not surprising) to see the Hyrule Warriors DLC sold separately. (I did purchase the entire set itself though, but I wanted to as well).

Resident Evil games are on sale in NA, Mercenaries 3D and Revelations going for $8.99, Revelations on Wii U for $15.99 (rough prices, can't remember for sure).

Pretty sweet deal if you haven't played Revelations yet - stellar game.

Azure Striker Gunvolt is on sale at $9.99-11.49 in US and Canada (regular price: $14.99-15.99). The former gets the upper hand when buying both that game and MIGHTY GUNVOLT with the additional savings of $1 [comparing to the bundle promo back in the summer], while Canada gets no additional savings (except if they only want to get ASG). Mighty Gunvolt is $3.99-4.49, which is the regular price.

The Keep is under $10 (8 in US; 9 CA) until Thursday. Epic Mickey titles for Wii U and 3DS are 50% off ($9.99, previously $19.99) until 12/08.

Real Heroes Firefighter 3D is still on sale at $4.99. That applies to US only, however the title finally makes its Canadian debut at $11.39, thanks to Zordix. It'll be interesting if or how long Real Heroes Firefighter 3D will still be up there in the Canadian eShop after the sale ends in the US.

Select Atlus titles are on sale until the middle of the month, including Conception II at $24.99. Still at least $5 above the target I want to buy it at though. Select G-STYLE games are on sale until the end of the year at $2.99-3.30.

Almost went for Epic Mickey 2 since I enjoyed the first one. Took a quick look at some reviews and it seems like the problems that were un the first are still in this one, plus some awful frame rate issues. It's a pass for me.

NA Fire Emblem for GBA coming to Wii U VC tomorrow. Never played this one so I'll have to pick it up!

Lode Runner is also on the way... just another game to add on my delayed purchased list for the Wii U Virtual Console.

That looks like the kind of game I would very much pick up if it was on 3DS.
