Hudson keeps delivering excellent games to the VC, to the delight of people who enjoy spending $6 on something awesome. In the final Virtual Console Monday of July, Data East's
Drop Off will be featured.
August brings us
Cratermaze, which is a maze game that's part
Pac-Man and part
Lode Runner: you can dig holes to trap the monsters chasing you as you grab treasure from around the maze.
Neutopia is a competent, nice-looking
Zelda clone, and we mean that as praise.
Galaga '90 is a brilliant
Galaga sequel that features the same kind of shooting action, but in a very pretty cartoony style and with weird new enemies.
We're pretty sure we wouldn't want to smell Galaga breath (it reeks of intensity), but it makes for a great week on the Virtual Console for European gamers! Only three titles this fine Friday, but when you're talking about Galaga '90 and Breath of Fire II (oh, and some hot Volleyball action), what else do you really need? RPGs and beautiful, rhythmic patterns make for some good gaming.
