In this monthly section the readers were given a lengthy preview of WiiWare video game Lit, developed by Way Forward, the team behind Contra 4 and Shantae. It was written by Chris Hoffman. Other information in this section included news on Sandy Beach and downloadable content for Mega Man 9. As always, reviews were present for games released on both the WiiWare service and on the Virtual Console. Unlike the reviews of retail games, reviews of downloadable titles are graded by bad (Grumble Grumble), so-so (Hmmm...), and good (Recommended).
