Another week in August on the eShop features another nice assortment of Virtual Console games. Mega Man 6 and Life Force, both originally on NES, are out on the Wii U Virtual Console while Xtreme Sports, a little-known WayForward Game Boy Color game, hits 3DS Virtual Console. The other big release is a free version of Disney Infinity, though you'll still need to the base and figures to do anything with it. There are a number of sales going on for the next few weeks as well, including deals on the excellent pair of Nano Assault games from Shin'en on Wii U and 3DS. Next week will feature a Virtual Console release of Donkey Kong Jr. Math (yay?), the launch of the 3DS retail game Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, and the debut of 2D side-scrolling 3DS game Azure Striker Gunvolt.
