VC Friday: 800

The three games out this week on the Virtual Console for PAL regions all have one thing in common: they're gonna set you back 800 points. It's up to you to decide whether or not that's a good deal. We'll say one thing -- this week's offerings are not lacking in the action department.
  • Cybernator -- SNES -- 800 Wii points
  • Light Crusader -- Mega Drive -- 800 Wii points
  • Rolling Thunder 2 -- Mega Drive -- 800 Wii points

VC Tuesday: Balloon Fight wasn't already out?

The biggest surprise for us this week is right there in the title. Balloon Fight is one of the canonical first-generation NES games. It's already out in the U.S. and Europe, and it was even remade for the DS in Japan in a Club Nintendo-exclusive Tingle version. So why has it taken so long to show up on the Virtual Console in Japan? In the time that Japanese Wii owners have been waiting for Balloon Fight, they've gotten two versions of Wonder Boy in Monster World. Similarly, today brings the second version of Gradius II.

Speaking of repeat performances, we'd like to point out how awesomely Treasure is represented on the VC. Light Crusader is the fourth Treasure game to appear on the VC so far, and we appreciate every one. Even Light Crusader.
