This week saw a trifecta of NES Virtual Console titles hit the Wii U. Perhaps, most notable is the 1985 Wild West light gun shooter, Wild Gunman. It was the game that made an entertaining cameo in Back to the Future Part II's nostalgia-fueled fictional future of 2015; and it is apparently still going strong in the actual future of 2016. See if you've got what it takes to be a crack shot like Marty McFly. It really is a pretty decent game, even if you do have to use your hands.
Also part of the aforementioned NES trifecta, the only other notable NES light gun shooter (that isn't called Duck Hunt), Hogan's Alley. And lastly, there is the cajun-themed, unrelenting Konami action game, The Adventures of Bayou Billy. Display your mad shooting skills whilst ignoring jealous kids who compare your Wiimote to a baby's toy, then jump past the break to see this list of new releases.
