Nintendo adds new games to the Wii Shop Channel every Monday. This week we\'re treated to a Nintendo 64 game and an NES game.

Nintendo adds new games to the Wii Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week's new games are:

Pokémon Puzzle League (Nintendo 64, 1-2 players, 1,000 Wii Points): Join Ash, Brock, Misty and many more characters from the Pokémon animated series as they gather in Puzzle Village to compete for the title of Pokémon Puzzle Master. Just match three or more blocks of the same color in any direction. Choose from six different modes offering a wide range of action, from story or puzzle modes to continuous play or timed play.

Renegade (NES, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): Renegade follows the story of a vigilante who fights his way through countless gangs in order to bring peace back to his city. Battle your way through subways, parks, alleyways and parking lots. Use your arsenal of kicks, punches and jump kicks, as well as a variety of throws. Along the way, pick up items like a hamburger that restores your life, a heart that increases your lives by one, a power-up to increase your attack strength, and a speed item that gives you a speed burst while on your motorcycle. Take the law into your own hands and take your city.
