Hudson has announced that, barring unforeseen nuclear disasters or time-travel mishaps, they'll be releasing 100 different titles on Nintendo's virtual console service. The only name we have for now is Bonk's Adventure which, given the absence of the other 99 titles, doesn't leave us feeling particularly informed. Games like Lode Runner are most certainly destined for Wii emulation, but which other, more obscure Hudson games should we be getting excited about experiencing again?Hudson promises 100 games for Virtual Console

Give me Super Bomberman 5 or give me death!

The most important thing is how long it takes for Dracula X to come out... secretly/supposedly the best Castlevania game. Any word yet on 3rd party games?
(Getting the Bonk games and the other various 1st party titles (I Heart Alien Crush) will be nice too. :))

Conker's was hilarious.
Unfortunately, Conker's was made by Rare, which is now owned by Microsoft. Rare is releasing Diddy Kong racing on the DS, but I wouldn't expect MS to deliver a sigle Wii game.

I'm not so sure I'd count on them not releasing it for the Wii. Some of the comments coming out of Microsoft recently seem very positive towards the Wii. You have to remember that the Wii and the Xbox 360 are not competing for the same market (not really). And the Xbox 360 has already seized most of the hard core gamers and early adopters. And really, what does it hurt them to release a several year old game on a service? It doesn't sound like much must be done on their part, they just have to provide the ROM and collect the money.

Hudson is bringing Duo games, I wonder if they would be able to bring Ninja Spirit or Bloody Wolf from the Duo to the console. Didn't know if Hudson is limited to their Duo games only or is the entire catalog fair game...?
