Each week GamesIndustry.biz brings you a round-up of all the games announced over the last five days, plus a guide to what's arriving on shop shelves this Friday.

Resident Evil 4, already released on PS2 and GameCube, is coming to Wii this summer. It will feature all the content from the previous versions, and players will be able to use the Wii remote and nunchuk to both attack and evade enemies.

Atari has announced plans to publish Nintendo DS title Trioncube in Europe. The falling block puzzler is due to arrive here in June.

Also on the way from Atari is an expansion pack for hit PC game Neverwinter Nights 2. Titled Mask of the Betrayer, it will extend the level cap and offer a host of extra features including new races, companions, spells, classes, weapons and monsters.

Ubisoft also has an expansion pack in the works, this time for Heroes of Might and Magic V. A new Orc race will be introduced, complete with new abilities, troops and heroes. The add-on is out in the autumn.

Following on from the success of the PSP version, Metal Slug Anthology is coming to PS2. Due out in May, it will be distributed in Europe by Atari.

And finally, news of a third instalment in the Guitar Hero series was revealed in a Q&A on the RedOctane website. The game will be released for PS2, PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii and is down for an autumn release in the US - but there's no word on a European date as yet.

Hitting UK shops today are three new DS titles - Hotel Dusk: Room 215 and Pokîmon Ranger from Nintendo, plus Rising Star's Harvest Moon DS. Wing Island, another first-party title, is out on Wii today

For PS2 there's Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 2 and Sony's own Everybody's Tennis. The PSP gets Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure from 505 Games.

There are no PS3 or Xbox 360 releases this week - however, Boom Boom Rocket is now available from Xbox Live Arcade.
