The Wii U Virtual Console is getting a lot better today — Nintendo will start releasing classic N64 and Nintendo DS games on its retro download service. It starts today with the launch of two games, Yoshi’s Island DS and Super Mario 64, which will be available for $9.99 each. DS games will offer multiple display options so that you can make dual-screen games work comfortably on your home console. Nintendo first started releasing DS games on console last June, when it brought Brain Age to the Wii U in Japan. The Virtual Console currently features classic games from a number of classic consoles and portables, from the NES to the Gameboy Advance.
