Topic: Games you'd like to see on the Virtual Console Arcade.

What games would you like to see on the VCA?
I'd like to see:
Any Namco classic like, Pac Man, Galaga, Dig Dug, Pole Position, Ms Pac Man, Galaxian.
Nintendo classics like Donkey Kong 1, 2, 3, Mario Bros.
We can't forget Sega games like Altered Beast or Golden Axe.

The 6 "Arrangement" games from the Namco Classics Collection

Well both of those Sega games are definitely coming as are many classic Namco games (Dig Dug and Galaxian can both be had along with a dozen others on Namco Museum Remix right now); I suspect they're saving Galaga and Pac-Man for their 30th anniversary next year (damn I'm old!).

I really want to see the Atari Games, Bally/Midway and Williams games above all else (and they'd better damn well not be exclusive to North America if/when they do come). I'd prefer disc compilations (and based upon past history that's what I have the best hope of seeing), but clearly we have to wait and see if Time-Warner ends up owning Midway before anything is going to happen there...

Golden Axe Revenge of Death Adder.

You may notice that there were many kings of the arcade industry. Atari, Namco, Sega, Capcom, and SNK, with other famous supporters such as Nintendo, Konami, and Midway. After all, a boy can dream, can't he?

Bold: Recently added to my wishlist.
Italic: Now available on the North American Virtual Console.

OMG they need to bring Intellivision to the VC. Lock-n-Chase, Burger Time, and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons - Cloudy Mountain FTW!

Mario kart Arcade gp. you guys took all the good ones.

Wait a minute. Is it possible this generation? I wanted to include that, but I thought the Virtual Console this generation was incapable of handling Gamecube games, and I'm preety sure it looks at least like one. Although it would be great to see it.

I just want more games being released for the VCA, this drought is ridiculous while Japan is getting heavily poured with this stuff. .

I know. Japan gets Virtual Console Arcade games every week, while American haven't gotten squat since launch.

Final Fight
TMNT
TMNT Turtles in Time
Splatterhouse
Mortal Kombat
Super Street Fighter II Turbo
Haunted Castle
Donkey Kong
Donkey Kong Jr.
Popeye
Ultimante MK 3
Mercs

You've have offically helped me expand my Virtual Console Arcade Wishlist, and it's pretty big now (Noticed it?)

I would love Burger Time, I used to play that game on my gray fat Gameboy all the time back in the day. And all of the classic Ninja Turtle Games including the Manhatten Project and Hyperstone Heist. They seem to be the most forgotten.

Yeah I did notice. It's a pretty impressive list. It would be awesome if we get even half of it.

I know. Especially since some of these games are from dead companies, latter 1990's-early 2000's, and games with licensing issues. Even more so because they only promised early 1980's arcade games, which would make the service basicilly pointless, unless you were an hardcore arcade junky back in the days. However, there's hope that Nintendo of America is actually going to support newer games after all, because Europeans recently got the arcade port of Space Harrier. While medicoric, it at least good news because it's from the mid-1980s, which means it's from an latter date. But still not quite there yet.

Just one:
TMNT

No TRON?

Honestly, I would be happy with Rez, Ikaruga, and some Kenta Cho goodness.

i wouldnt mind seeing of course the mk series, tmnt, and x-men but honestly i only think this should be done if they can incorporate online play into it, the great thing about these games were playing with tons of ppl, i remember being 12, walking up to the joystick with all the older guys and kicking ass better then they did, that would be awesome if they could do that online, and of course limit it so its not just random ppl popping in and out all the time stealing ur action, u should be able to choose between 2- player online game, 3-player online game, etc

Dragon's Lair

While it's unecessary for the Virtual Console games, it's a must for Virtual Console Arcade games You gotta admit, some X-Men Arcade cabinet had six-players, and they won't be able to get all six players in, unless a person has two Gamecube controller and four Wii Remotes offline, that's why we need online play for Virtual Console Arcade games. Sure it may change it a little, but some games will need it if we want the full benefit of the arcade experience. So far, Nintendo of America is being extermly lazy and thinks it's incapable of six players, which is wrong. Just add online play to some that needs it Nintendo of America.
