Mario Party 2 dances onto Virtual Console

Nintendo Store Update: N64 minigame compilation title hits nostalgic hub; WiiWare welcomes Frobot, Inkub; DSiWare adds Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp, three others.

Leading the downloadable pack this week is Mario Party 2 (1,000 Wii points, or $10) on the Virtual Console.
