A Weekly Virtual Console Thread

[kevlar_pso]

What VC games do you have on your Wii? I have in order of purchase, TMNT-NES, Mario Kart 64-. . . . well on the 64, Sonic the Hedgehog-GENESIS(I own the GBA cart, why did I buy this???), Harvest Moon-SNES, The Legend of Zelda:A Link to the Past-SNES, Wrecking Crew-NES. That makes 6.

Well, Double Dragon-NES is out this week of the 28th and I almost bought it, but I have 0 points atm. Phantasy Star II & III are both available, but I am waiting on #1 to hit the VC. Should I get those three on a compilation though instead? I hear that those 3 are pretty long so I have no idea when I would ever beat them. l0l

Any VC games not available you would like to see?

Presently, I only have Puyo Puyo Tsuu (Gensesis version, I wish it were Remix for the SNES, as it was the best version) and Fantasy Zone.

I'm hoping Kirby Superstar will make it on there at some point, that and 64 are the best games in series.

[VanHalen]

So far I have
Metroid
Kirby's Adventure
Kid Icarus
Sin & Punishment
Street Fighter II: The New Challengers

I'm hoping for Phantasy Star IV, Kirby Superstar, and Samurai Shodown II, and some other King of Fighters games.

For Phantasy Star II and III, I would personally suggest getting Sega Genesis Collection on the PS2, as it has II, III and IV. PSII has a combat difficulty reduction, but that solely translates to LESS LEVEL GRINDING NECESSARY. All the REAL challenge of PSII remains intact: those dungeons are still hard to navigate. As for PSIII, I dunno about difficulty (maybe it was also made easier, as I had little trouble during battle) but that game has four different endings but only two save slots---but Sega Genesis Collection allows you to save up to three states (if you've used emulators you'd be familiar with the concept of saving any game in its EXACT spot) so you can keep at least three of the endings saved. As for Phantasy Star 1, you're currently stuck with either a Master System emulator or getting Phantasy Star Collection for the GBA (which has 1, II and III and no combat difficulty adjustments).

The only game I own is Kirby 64: Crystal Shards. It also happens to be the only game I ever wanted on it. :

[Stezan]

I own Super Mario World and Super Metroid.

The game that I'd really like to see is Zombies Ate My Neighbors. I used to play it with my brother and next door neighbor, but my SNES doesnt work reliably and the ability to quit at any moment with the HOME function would help get around the passwords that make you lose all your weps necessary to beat all of the difficult parts of the game.

I think it is safe to say that everyone wants Earthbound.

[Jaspaller]

I honestly can't remember all of them. They're pretty much non-existant to me thanks to brawl haha

Ninja Turtles (NES)
F-Zero X (N64)
Star Fox 64 (N64)
Streets of Rage (GEN)
Streets of Rage 3 (GEN)
Gunstar Heroes (GEN)

I wouldn't mind getting some more but I'd be wasting my cash... I still have some of the old consoles (as well as the ports to many good games on other consoles)
