Import-only Milon sequel headed to American Virtual Console

DoReMi Fantasy: Milon no DokiDoki Daibouken recently popped up out of nowhere on Australia's ratings board page as an upcoming Virtual Console release. It has yet to come out in that region (or any other), but the OFLC's American counterpart has given us a similar clue to the game's upcoming North American release.

The ESRB lists the game as DoReMi Fantasy: Milon's DokiDoki Adventure, which is a direct and incomplete (meaning part of it is still in Japanese) translation of the original title. This will likely be the first Japan-only SNES game to be released on the U.S. Virtual Console. It will also be the first Hudson SNES game to be released. It's also a totally cute game, and not as annoying as Milon's Secret Castle.

Random imports to appear on Australian VC

The OFLC has rated two new games that are headed to the Australian Virtual Console in the near future, and they're spectacularly weird! Spectacularly weird in that both games were never released outside of Japan, and neither game is currently available or slated to be available on the Japanese VC.

First is Do Re Mi Fantasy: Milon no Dokidoki Daibouken (Milon's Big Heart-Pounding Adventure), the Super NES sequel to Milon's Secret Castle, which seems to receive rave reviews from those who have played it. Also it's really adorable. Hudson rarely puts anything on the VC that isn't a Turbografx-16 game, and out of nowhere they decided to put up a Super Famicom platformer?

Second is Smash Ping Pong, a Famicom Disk System port of Konami's Ping Pong in which the paddles move automatically, and the player is required to time shots and choose shot type. On a system that made its name with a realistically-controlled sports game, it seems odd to dig this one up.
