Last night I noticed something when looking at my DVD case stand which is home to my game cases. “Man there are a lot of Zelda games on the Gamecube”. Did the long running Gameboy or Gameboy Advance even see as many Zelda releases as the Gamecube? Could the Wii see this much Zelda love? Well technically it already is since Gamecube games can be played on the Wii plus the Virtual Console Zelda releases that are almost certain to come down the road.
“The entire Wii community is still abuzz with talk of cross-region VC purchasing. We discussed this awhile back, and now AzaMcWazza has sent in a video. Nintendo must know about this…I wonder if they are going to do something about it.”
Yet another Virtual Console Monday is nearing and Nintendo has not released what games will show up. What are your guesses? Personally I want Punchout to finally show up. As well as giving us some of the bigger VC games already released in Japan such as Super Castlevania IV and Super Mario World. As it stands right now the VC has a good selection of games but none of which besides Sonic and Mario 64 are really instantly recognizable.
»Duck Hunt (E for Everyone) »Hogan’s Alley (E for Everyone) »Kid Icarus (E for Everyone) »Kirby’s Adventure (E for Everyone) »Pilot Wings (E for Everyone) »Pro Wrestling (E for Everyone) »Punch-Out (E for Everyone) »Wild Gunman (E for Everyone)
