Meh, nothing I want there.

Yie Air Kung Fu! Cor, I remember playing that on my C64 back in the day. I wonder if it holds up today?

Good to see Phantasy Star II, er, too, although I do prefer the first one (Master System, please Nintendo!) and also IV.

1080!

That brings back memories. Good game, weird theme tune as well...

And the Phantasy Star games, I wouldn't mind getting into those some time

Phantasy Star II rocks. I have it on Sega Meadrive Collection on PSP & PS2 though so i wont be getting it here. But i really really hope monster world IV gets a release outside japan. Fully translated and everything lol.

I hated 1080 snowboarding =(

This has to be the lamest month for the VC I have ever seen.

"Yie Air Kung Fu! Cor, I remember playing that on my C64 back in the day. I wonder if it holds up today?"

It's the best fighting game on the console, but that REALLY doesn't say much.

But yeah, other than the awful awful Samurai Ghost, these are all fine titles worth a download.

Do you know why Europe was left behind today with releases?

Phantasy Star II is nice but where the fu** is the SNES/SFC RPG's? Are they ever going to release them?

Perhaps we'll see International Karate or Bruce Lee somewhere down the line, although I don't think either came out on the VC systems.

Hmm, interesting. 1080, Super R Type and our first taste of Phantasy Star on the VC. Not too bad.

Dont we normally get eu releases on a friday?

What happened to the EU VC releases this friday?

So what has happened to the Europe release' today? We want an answer!!! (if you have one please)

Certainly one of the more disappointing VC release lists, but I'm sure it will appeal to fans of the various series included.

Now those 4000 points I got for christmas is going to be put to good use with 1080. YAY!

I'll save my points for super mario rpg, kirby's super star, Kirby's dream land 3, ninja gaiden 3, River City Ransom, Majora's Mask (when its announced and out for vc) TMNT 4: turtles in time, TMNT: Tournement fighters (snes) (if it comes to the vc that is) FF3, (or in japan as they call it FF6) and Sonic CD (again, if it comes to the vc) and thats it.... I guess...........O and DK 64....O and Banjo Kazoie and Banjo tooie.......Once agian if they decide to put it on vc.

1080 Snowboarding is one of my all time favourite games! Hopefully Nintendo will fix the slowdown present in the game (particulary in the otherwise stunning Golden Forest) and if they do I will download this straight away

Maybe DKC3 was your release for the week?

It's a shame, but I think that's the way it is

C'mon where's Majora's Mask and Super Mario Kart? Oh and why were Europe and Australia left without our Friday update? Thats ridiculous...

I only really want Mappy (which was Famicom only, so it would have to be an "import") and maybe Phantasy Star II off this list.

The reason why their January is weak is because they're getting Brawl
this month!

Light Crusader (GEN), Bubble Bobble (NES) and Top Hunter (NEO) are said to be Monday's games.

Europe got DKC3 on Christmas eve that all you guys get this week

How come Mother 1 and 2 haven't been announced for the Japanese VC yet? It's so popular there.

Catfud - yeah, that sucks. I'd rather have a steady three games every week even if two of them are really crap (gets them out the way) than one game.

Don - Nintendo are probably saving those for a special occasion. Sure, they're popular but Nintendo wants popular games to put on VC for Christmas '08 and '09 too.

@catfud: WHAT???!! THAT SUX i dont even like the dkc series. bah humbug nintendo.

How about Golden eye? does anyone know when its commin on VC?

Hopefully Phantasy Star hits the US, European, and Australian shores soon.

I swear, if people keep asking about Goldeneye, Final Fantasy, and Mega Man...

The N64 1080 was superb, better than the GC sequel, but it just wouldn't be the same without the rumble pack. It helped every type of surface to feel different.

they better bring over monster world iv!

i know! what's the point of having a "import" category where we can have japanese games like sin and punishment but not monster world iv. that's pretty stupid!?!

1080 looks pretty cool, I might download that when it hits the U.S.

C'mon, where's Smash Bros. N64!?

Bah.. f*ck smash bros. as long as we got 1080! That game kicks some major ass!!!!

Monster World IV would be such an adorable release... Too bad it´s not very likely to make it to europe or US.

Wow, what a particularly lame list of games.

what utter rubbish games!! 1080 is one of the most hyped games ive ever known all my mates thought so too,i know they will most probably never appear but what about turok series? especially 2nd one,goldeneye of course,road rash series on megadrve or even star control! class multiplayer
