As you can see, N64 game are kind of the kings of these lands. Castlevania Rondo of Blood and Ogre Battle 64 are the newest ones and they are working so good. A couple weeks ago there were two or three NES games in the list, like Punch Out!! and Kirby's Adventure; and Final Fantasy II (IV actually) had a little presence.

Well, this is it. Hope to see you around, and thanks for keeping this alive.

The Real Dutch VC list of April 1.

2) (2) Super Mario Bros.
3) (4) Castlevania: Rondo of Blood
4) (3) Super Mario World
5) (7) Super Mario Bros. 2
6) (9) Super Mario 64
7) (5) Sonic the Hedgehog
8) (8) The Legend of Zelda
9) (10) Mario Kart 64
10) (6) Kirby's Adventure
11) (19) The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
12) (11) Donkey Kong Country
13) (-) Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber NEW
14) (-) Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
15) (12) The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
16) (13) The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
17) (18) Super Smash Bros.
18) (15) Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
19) (14) Pac-Man
20) (17) Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels

Two new games. Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber was the last Hanabi Game last week and enters at 13. We also see the re-entry of Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

We say goodbye to:

• Lode Runner (16 last week)
• Sonic & Knuckles (20 last week)

Castlevania: Rondo of Blood is doing very well and in it's second week even enters the top 3.

Just last week I was saying that Majora's Mask was always more populair then Ocarina of Time in Holland. Now a week later, Ocarina of Time is the biggest climber with eight spots from 19 to 11 and above Major's Mask. Biggest dropper is Pac-Man. The yellow guy drops five spots from 14 to 19.

I think the fact Master System Sonic sells so well i a big proof of bad taste, or is it just cheapness.

I think that's because it's our only choose for Sonic. Too bad NoE keeps everything on 50 Hz.

Master System Sonic is a great game, completed it tons of times, its high sales is proof of good taste not bad.

We also see the return of Paper Mario. However two games have to leave the list. So bye bye Donkey Kong Country 2 (18 last week) and Pac-Man (19 last week).

The biggest climber is The Legend of Zelda with eight spots from 16 to 8. The biggest droppers are Sonic the Hedgehog with eight spots from 10 to 18 and Donkey Kong Country with six spots from 9 to 15.

Super Mario Bros 3 is the best Virtual Console Game out there. It has got the first place spot on EVERY list on here.

Not really. Super Mario Kart is number 1 for a couple of weeks now in Holland.

Here is the Mexican VC Top 20 from April 21st:

1 (1) - Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)
2 (2) - Super Mario Bros. (NES)
3 (6) - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)
4 (5) - Super Smash Bros. (N64)
5 (4) - Super Mario World (SNES)
6 (3) - Super Mario 64 (N64)
7 (9) - Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES)
8 (8) - Mario Kart 64 (N64)
9 (7) - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64)

17 (-) - Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble (SNES)
18 (17) - The Legend of Zelda (NES)
19 (-) - Pokémon Snap (N64)
20 (20) - Double Dragon (NES)

The two kings of old keeps their respective thrones in the top of the list. Just once I saw Super Mario Bros. drop one spot: when Super Smash Bros. was released and reached the second position for a couple weeks; nevertheless, Super Mario Bros. 3 has NEVER leave the first position in Mexico since I have my Wii. I can not imagine which game could do this...

Anyway, now we have than the two Zelda games for N64 have been separated: Ocarina of Time climbed 3 spots (3rd) as Majora's Mask droped 2 spots (9th), each one switching their position with a Super Mario game. Curious, is it not??

And this is the very first time than I see Donkey Kong Country 3 in the Top 20. We welcome it along with Pokémon Snap. This means good-bye to two big ones (at least for me): Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber and Castlevania Rondo of Blood. But maybe one of them can come back later...
