Topic: New VC games in Japan

Japan gets Alien Crush, R-Type, and Street Fighter 2010 and their new eShop games are a SIMPLE series download game and a visual novel.

Japan gets Gargoyle's Quest II on the 3DS VC and they get Bird Mania 3D Christmas (even though it's almost March) and a visual novel.

Japan gets Elevator Action, Pokemon Trozei, and a surfing game.

I have just downloaded Gargoyles Quest II and I really like the game

The only VC game they get is Japan-only Scramble Wars but they also get 3D Classicized versions of both Steel Empire and Fantasy Zone.

Here it comes guys, after quite a drought, next week is bringing Donkey Kong Land for the game boy

Donkey Kong Land is finally released in Japan? Guess Microsoft doesn't mind Nintendo using Rare-made property.

Guess not. I was surprised since we havent had a lot of new VC games recently. March only had three, and thats the lowest i think sincd the 3ds came out. Our last game boy game was in December. This is a treat, it should be coming out west too, particularly because its western developed.

@Neko_Chan: Are you serious? The DKC trilogy, as well as the Land trilogy, was Nintendo-published, and the DKC trilogy was on the Wii VC for years without Microsoft saying a peep before Nintendo suddenly decided to take them down.

This is huge. Not only do I think Donkey Kong Land might eventually come westward, but I think the DKC trilogy might be coming to Wii U VC at some point as well.

Huh? Why did you reply to him? It was me that brought this news! ME!!!!i1!!!!!!!

Kirby Tilt N Tumble is coming to the Japanese 3DS VC next week! I wonder how this will work...

Nightmare is Dreamland, Wario Land 4, and The Minish Cap haven't been announced for America...yet...

The answer to how it will work is actually that it won't, because April Fools. They're actually getting Lolo this week.

Japan is getting Donkey Kong Land: Diddy's Kong Quest aka Donkey Kong Land 2 on April 16th. They got the first game not long ago.

Not too long from now, they'll get the Japan exclusive Game Boy Color version of Donkey Kong Land 3 (known over there as "Donkey Kong GB: Dinky Kong & Dixie Kong") and the Game Boy Color remake of the first Donkey Kong Country (known over there as "Donkey Kong 2001").

Obviously won't come out in America. (Maybe Rare still exists independently in Japan and owned by Microsoft in the US?)

Maybe Nintendo owns the games in Japan while Rare owns them in NA/EU/AU but the DKC trilogy was removed from the Wii VC in Japan a couple weeks after it was removed in NA/EU/AU.

Japan gets Final Fantasy III and 3D Outrun

Japan gets Shadowgate

Yet another week with nothing.
