Other new features include Combination Arts (the ability to execute combo attacks with simple rhythmic button taps), Hidden Abilities (superior versions of the popular Special Moves and Super Special Moves from previous installments) and minor tweaks to all of the characters' Special Moves. As a result, this installment offers the deepest strategies and tactics in the Fatal Fury series to date.

Bonk's Adventure, Bonk's Revenge and Bonk 3: Bonk's Big Adventure are all on the Virtual Console. Bonk: Brink of Extinction isn't out yet, but will be available via WiiWare.

Rocket Knight Adventures hasn't been released yet and it would be on the Virtual Console, not WiiWare. Unless you're talking about the Rocket Knight remake, which isn't available on the Wii currently.
