God im with the other bloke. no more money in the wii in december. To be fair it has a decent PC engine emulator and i keep it for that although i prob wont get to play dracula x. Actually this reminds me of how bad sega europe were with the saturn.
Im going to set up my saturn and play xmen vs streetfighter. funnily it displays really good on my hd monitor. even better then the wii haha.

LETTER TO NINTENDO
Can you consider adding functionality into the emulators that you are using allowing a 60hz option. Display a warning that some games may not work correctly when used in this mode so we at least have an option.
Heck if you want to be that retro why not produce an RF lead for the Wii hahahaha.

nice games but as i stress again. 50hz is untouchable for me.
I have a state of the art samsung HD ready monitor that will display 60hz upto 100hz. not designed for early 90's tv signal that nintendo of europe didnt bother to optimise.
I CANT DOWNGRADE TO 50HZ

Hmm. I sense virtual console is gonna slow down a bit. Time for me to download the ones I always meant too.
Bloody Wolf
Splatterhouse
Ninja Spirit.
Might track down some old gamecube games as well. The ones with sonic on them at 60hz.

Well if this is the end of the hanabi festival im pretty sad. We did get some good releases but Dracula X hasnt come to the console.
Not interested in c64 and master system games that will probably follow.

cant believe it myself ICEknight. Im laughing about it now.
Why dont they offer an update on the emulator so that you can tweak it to un 60hz. Offer a warning that some games may not work properly.

they do slangman. These are the first ones that Ive seen that havent
PC engine always will.
The two megadrive games (gley lancer and puyo puyo) here are running bordered and slower.
My Wii is set to 60hz

samman commented on EU VC Releases - 16th May - Third Hanabi Festi...:
Firstly Star Parodier. excellent.
Secondly the megadrive games are japanese versions running at 50hz with borders. I compared to KEGA. What a shame nintendo.
17% slower with no optimisation so back to the early 90's days before multisystem TV's.
My Wii channels are all Pc engine games becase 50hz is untouchable for me.
Dont start releasing games from other territories nintendo and slow them down. That goes against retaining them the way they are.

BRILLIANT. this is the best week ever. Gradius 2 on pc engine is a class A game. One of my personal BIG 3 that I want.
Better than the arcade. Im pleased to see titles like this. Its good that they have rounded of the star soldier trilogy even if star soldier is a weaker entry im gonna get it.
I think they should just release Rondo of Blood untranslated if its too much effort to localise it. Double Dragon 2 / Fighting street / Star Parodier next.
Also why not host NTSC versions of the current catalogue. Offer them as free downloads if you already have the respective game. Nintendo will see allot of movement on VC.
Its no good releasing PAL games because only kids will buy them because they are a compromise. I havent got any PAL games except N64 Mario and Lylat Wars. Thats why im concentrating on the TG16 catalogue.
