It's good to be back in the saddle. I've finished the video and placed it above for your viewing pleasure, checking out the duo of this week's Virtual Console releases. Hopefully, in failing to provide you guys with a video last week, I haven't lost my touch. And, by "my touch," I mean the ability to produce a video that only makes you want to vomit mildly.
Head past the break for the usual follow-up coverage.
It's Monday, which means that the Virtual Console provides us with downloadable entertainment. It's been awhile since we've gotten a N64 game, so color us excited about that. As for the other title up for for grabs, well ... we don't really have any experience with that one. So, we're looking forward to trying that out.
Today's Virtual Console offerins are in stark contrast of one another. On the one hand, you have a calm, some would say somber, title like Harvest Moon, where you'll settle for nothing less than having the best farm ever. On the other hand, there's Lords of Thunder, which tasks the player with shooting the crap out of everything on screen.
This week's Virtual Console releases are:
Harvest Moon (SNES, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
Lords of Thunder (TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
Be sure to stop back later for our video wrap-up of this week's Virtual Console games.
This week's releases on the Virtual Console bring us two very distinct titles. If you like to beat your opponent silly with one hand and solve mind-teasers with the other, then the pair of offerings on tap this week are sure to satisfy your thirst. Hit up the video above and be sure to head past the break for more coverage.
Another week means another bunch of Virtual Console games. Like last week, this week only brings us two titles, but one of them excites us very much. The other title is one we're familiar with and enjoy. So, it looks like today is going to be a good day for the Virtual Console.
Sorry, it took us longer than we wanted to get this up and out onto the net. Video complications meant I had to film my escapades on the Virtual Console twice. Have no fear, though. I still managed to get the thing done today and play the releases for you. Late is better than never, right? Right?
It's Monday, which means we celebrate the release of new titles on the Wii's Virtual Console. This week has three new titles, each of which has an 800 Wii Point price tag. And, even better, we get a nice variety of titles from a variety of consoles. Variety, we love it!
This week is just about a wash as far as good Virtual Console games go. But, there is hope, for there is one game we found to be well worth you hard-earned cash money. Which one is it? Well, you'll just have to check out the video above. Or, head past the break, Or, do both.
Another Monday, another slew of new games to download on the Virtual Console. For most of you, the big title this week involves combat and bloodshed, as the Mortal Kombat wannabe Eternal Champions becomes available. The other two titles up for grabs aren't ones we have any personal experience with, to tell the truth.
Note: I made the same mistake while recording the video tonight, commenting that Super Air Zonk was the first TG16 CD game in North America. Sorry for the blatant error on my part.
With the Wii turning 1 today, we'd hope for some kickass titles on the Virtual Console to celebrate its launch. Sadly, that isn't the case, as the releases today aren't all that great. Still, we soldier on and play the crappy games so you don't have to! Hit up the video above, then check out the rest of the coverage past the break.
Update: Sorry, folks. I overlooked that Gates of Thunder was the first TG16 CD game to release, not Super Air Zonk. Silly me, I also made a huge mental error in stating Working Crew was releasing.
This week's Virtual Console update shows the release of the first a new TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM game in the United States. Rejoice! Along with that game, come two more, so we get our usual triple dose of downloadables. Those with a keen eye will know a similar game released some time ago.
With the day of the week being Monday and all, some new Virtual Console games have hit our digital doorstep. And, as you can imagine, we were anxious to download and play them. And play them we did. So, be sure to hit up the video above and head past the break afterward for some more of our coverage.
Oh, you thought because there wasn't a formal VC Monday Madness post today that you would not be getting your dose of video goodness? Oh no, boys and girls, because as we needed to break the news of what was arriving today during yesterday evening (today had a big release, so we needed to inform you as soon as we could), we felt another post would be ... well, just a tad bit on the side of not needed. So, hit up the video above and be sure to check past the break for the usual.
And before you ask, that DVD in the lower left-hand corner is Braveheart. I felt a need to put it on today while I worked.
Oh, how we love Mondays. Our wallets, however, have a whole different idea regarding the start of the work week. And, this week, our wallets hate us that much more as the titles on offer cost their fair share of dough. Lucky for us, and for you all, this week's available titles are more good than bad.
Another week, another Virtual Console update. And, with this week's update, we've got three new titles to check out. The obvious high-profile game here is Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, which you all likely remember (whether you enjoyed it or not). That doesn't mean we should forget about the other two games, though.
