Kicking off November in style

There's a distinctly domestic theme to this week's Nintendo Download in North America, with a house, some garden gnomes and a spot of lawn mowing all featuring in one way or another. Let's get on our aprons and see what's available to take home this week.

WiiWare

Gnomz (QubicGames, 1000pts) — A single-screen four-player action beat 'em up is probably the best way to describe Gnomz, unless you've played Super Mario War, in which case it's quite like that. You can read our Gnomz First Impressions for an overview before our review lands in the near future.

3DS Virtual Console

Balloon Kid (Game Boy, Nintendo, $2.99) - This Game Boy title was a sequel to NES release Balloon Fight, with the objective of flying through eight stages collecting balloons. Our review will let you know whether it's worth a flight.

DSiWare
