Just in time for lunch (it's always time for lunch), MonkeyPaw Games brings the re-imagined arcade classic BurgerTime to this week's Nintendo Download, which is lovely seeing as there isn't much else.
You spin me round round, baby, right round; like a burger baby. That's the idea behind BurgerTime World Tour, taking the 2D action of the original game and twisting it in on itself. It's colorful, responsive, and — most importantly — it's one of only three downloadable games coming to Nintendo's various platforms this week.
For the vegetarians in the audience, there's 40-in-1 Explosive Megamix for DSiWare, which sounds dangerous, and an old Game Boy title for the 3DS eShop.
I'll probably just eat my fill of burgers and nap until next week.
