The NES beat-em-up Double Dragon is the only addition to the Wii Virtual Console shopping channel this week, Nintendo has announced.

Developed by Technos Japan Corporation and released for the NES in 1988, Double Dragon is set in a post-apocalyptic version of New York City which brothers Billy and Jimmy Lee fight through to dismantle the Black Warriors street gang.

The game will be available for 500 Wii Points ($5) when the Virtual Console channel updates at 11AM Central/12PM Eastern.
