One of the best for the TG16.

Still i've notice people reponse towards it...on youtube and on gametrailers have been harsh on it.

Dunno why but i think it's a good wounderboy game.

Guess,those people are ignorant or never play it in it's day and think 'it is crap

Not a big deal to me since i enjoy the game regardless.

 

[redrum666]

The 3 games for New years Eve are:
Bubble Bobble-Nes 500 Wii points
Light Crusader- genesis 800 wii points
Top Hunter- Neo Geo 900 Wii points

 

[British-Ninja]

Also Cybernator (SNES) and Alien Storm (Genesis)

Alien Storm was a great game on the genesis in my childhood days, cant wait for that game to come over here in europe on the virtual console

 

[Tarma]

We're getting shortchanged again - one release this week - Harvestmoon.

A great game I'm sure, if you're into that type of thing, but I was hoping for Axelay and Alien Storm.

There are so many great MD & SNES games out there and all I'm seeeing is a trickle of mediocrity at the moment... not happy!!

 

[redrum666]

The releases for Monday, January 7th

Star Tropics (NES 500 points)
King of Fighters '94 (NEO-GEO, 900 points)

I am wanting Alien storm aswell, it was a great childhood game and it's also ashame that they are only bringing 1 game out a week so far, I am quite dissapointed like yourself so far.

NOE just seem content in releasing old NES titles at the moment, the majority of which have not aged very well imo. For example Operation Wolf has been announced, but this was designed for the NES Zapper, and worked ok at the time, but was pants with the pad. It's unlikely they'll bother to programme the game to be Wii Zapper compatible, the graphics of the NES version are awful now, so what is the point?

If you want Op Wolf get Taito Legends, which has an arcade perfect version of it which works well with a pad.

I don't know whether there are rights issues or whatever, but some of the games announced for release are the type of titles I'd expect to see at the end of the Wii's life span when they're scrapping the barrell. At the moment they've not even scratched the surface.

Btw, I want Mr Heli and Atomic Robo Kid for PC Engine released too.

Damn and still no Ys 1&2 not like it matters i have it for my pce.

Still it keeps getting delayed damn.I'm starting to think it is a lincense issue,or becuase of the voice actors that stared in it.

 

[GregN]

I might pick up Riot Zone. Beat em up, right?

 

[td741]

I like the music in Riot Zone but it's not the best beat-em-up. (It's single player, the animation leaves a lot to be desired.) I played it a lot since beat-em-ups are rare for the Turbo.

 

[redrum666]

comeing this monday to the Virtual Console

Super Street Fighter 2: The New Challengers super nes
Lolo 2 nes

 

[FairlanePhantom]

Quit fucking releasing different versions of Street Fighter II. Just release Street Fighter II: Champion Edition and get it over with. I bought the first release thinking they'd never release another version, and they just keep them coming. Damn waste of $8.

comeing to the VC this monday only 1 game

1080°® SNOWBOARDING (N64®, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone, 1,000 Wii Points): Hit the slopes for some serious shredding in one of the first truly realistic snowboarding games ever created! Start in the lodge and select from five characters, each with his/her own particular attributes and special tricks. Then take a look at the wide assortment of available boards and choose one that best suits your rider and style. Once you’ve got the gear, six different modes of play, including Match Race, Trick Attack, and 2-Player Versus, await. Pick a course and get ready to experience a sensation of speed that’ll make you forget all about the cold—but it might just send a shiver down your spine. Throw in hidden characters and boards, varying weather and snow conditions, multiple paths through each course, and a variety of tricks to master—topped off with rock-solid play control—and you’ve got a recipe for winter fun that you can enjoy any time of the year. It’s all the fun and excitement of the sport, without the bruises and frostbite!

thanks for the heads up.
one game?!
i know 1080 is a good game but not good enough for it to be the only game we get this week.

 

[Loopz]

The VC updates this year...suck. Big time.
What the hell happened? It was on such a roll for a long, long time last summer and earlier this fall. We were getting imports and a lot of cool games I didn't think we'd ever get. WTF Nintendo?!?
