VC Friday: Take it in the wallet

Well, European gamers, you've got an update on the Virtual Console this week, that's for sure, but we're not necessarily convinced that it's a deal, a steal, or the sale of the century (with apologies to Guy Ritchie for bastardizing that quote). Sure, there are some worthwhile titles, but there's no budget option this week, so prepare to massage your wallet.

  • Super Air Zonk -- Turbografx-CD -- 800 Wii Points
  • Yoshi's Story -- N64 -- 1000 Wii Points

The first Turbo CD game in North America: Super Air Zonk

Surprise! It's another shooter! The ESRB now has a rating for one Turbografx-16 CD-ROM title: Super Air Zonk, the sequel to the futuristic Bonk spinoff that is already winning hearts and minds on the Virtual Console. Apparently it's not as good as the first Air Zonk game, and, being a CD game, it'll be more expensive. But it is interesting that Hudson's skipping over early Turbo CD games like Ys I & II and going straight to a Duo title.

As saturated as we are with shooters, we're still holding out hope that we'll get Cho Aniki on the VC like Japan is. A very faint hope.

Watch movies on your Wii!
