Nintendo_eShop_logoBeing New Year’s Eve and all, we didn’t expect much of a Nintendo eShop Update, so it’s not a surprise that the big release is the Virtual Console version of 1080° Snowboarding for the Wii U. But that’s okay, since it was definitely a fun N64 title when it was first released for the console.

Molly Maggot is apparently the sole new Wii U release this week, but there are a handful of sales and whatnot as well.

Take a look.
