A handful of new NES titles are destined to hit the VC today at their usual time of 9am PST. With all three being solid titles from the Nintendo Entertainment System's line-up of games, we suspect we'll be forced to give each and every one a download. The details for each game are:
  • Kid Icarus - NES - 1 player - 500 Wii Points
  • Ice Climbers - NES - 1-2 players - 500 Wii Points
  • Kirby - 1 player - 500 Wii Points
Will you be joining us in giving these a download today?

That's right kids, today US gamers will finally be able to download Mario Kart 64, along with a handful of other kickass titles as well. The other games, which include Contra III: The Alien Wars, Bonanza Bros., and Comix Zone (one of our favorite Genesis games), will all be available with Mario Kart 64 starting today at 9am PST (12pm EST).

VC Monday 12/18/06

Filed under: News, Virtual Console


Ah yes, another Monday and another update to the Virtual Console. Today's update provides us three tasty morsels of retro-gaming goodness in Tennis (NES), Space Harrier II (Genesis) and Military Madness (TG-16). All of our socks were collectively rocked at the sight of new games here at the Fanboy offices, however our duties keep us from downloading and enjoying them.

How about you fine readers? Any of you out there on the intertron give these games a download and try them out? Or are you usually a late participant in Virtual Console Mondays?
