No thanks. ZAMN and Final Fantasy are gonna keep me busy for a while. Its nice to see two VC games in a week again though. Hopefully they'll keep that up.

I'd love to play the MSX Metal Gear games. Never played them before since the essential collection only gaves us disc 1.

The konami logo is still there.

@10 Use the Classic controller. The gamecube controller makes it akward with the d-pad positioned where it is. I frankly don't mind the repititive tunes. They're all catchy. Great review Corbie!

Now Lucas Arts, please announce the NES version of Maniac Mansion. That will definately make me a happy gamer.

@SuperSonic1990: Knowing Nintendo I wouldn't count on it but it would be nice. This one game a week thing has got to go.

Yay for Zombies Ate My Neighbors one of my favorite Genesis games ever! Too bad golden axe arcade came out the same week. I'll be waiting that one out. Now LucasArts do the invetitable and announce the NES game Maniac Mansion!

I'm pleased to hear they managed to fit in the lock on games for Sonic & Knuckles and along with that kept it at Japan's rate of 600 points. Now let's see if the same will hold true for NA and Europe. Only time will tell and I cannot wait!!!

I'll get LostWinds 2 at some point.

To be honest I only bought Ultra because wasn't this game's rating removed off ESRB with Zombies and the earlier announced games that never got released or am I thinking of another Kirby game?

I thought so Bass. I'll pass this one up then.

Cool, the arcade version of Dig Dug. Was Dig Dug 2 any good?

Shame really. It was one of the first announced games for WiiWare. You figure they could of done a better job on it with the time given to work on the game.

The only thing that looks improved is the graphics unless you all can prove me wrong otherwise.

Looks great! Now if they released this with Zombies Ate My Neighbors on 10/26 that would be a real treat.

Can't wait for the Gravitronix review.

Personally I think the game deserves an 8 or a 9 but I think this review's score is fair enough. Great review Corbie!

Awww yeah! I can't wait to go home today and download it! A Boy and His Blob just might be released next week due to the new game being released 10/13 14 whatever the date is. Looks like that street fighter might be released two weeks from now and the week later possibly Zombies Ate My Neighbors? If that holds true for the VC this month I'll be impressed and pleased!

Whatever. I can care less about this game. All I want from the VC right now is Final Fantasy 1 and 4 and Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

@47 Yeah I don't see this coming now either. Its been too long.

Whoa, I completly forgot about this game. Guess I'll wait for the review.

Well at least we got Arkanoid Plus! Hopefully Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Final Fantasy will be released next month.

I don't think Ultra's 50 bucks. More like 30 or 35. On second thought maybe I will get this version. I've always prefered playing games on TVs anyway. Anybody think the SNES version is better than Ultra?

Already ESRB rated? Sweet. Hopefully we'll get an early Halloween treat.

Figures. I bought Ultra three months ago and now its been announced for VC.

The SNES version had split screen multiplayer? I remember the Genesis version didn't. Probably another reason why I prefer the Genesis version. That and I hate the purple blood game over screen in this version. Always thought it was ugly unlike the Genesis' one with red blood comin' down which looks awesome.

Too bad. I bought Ultra this year.

5 mins. is not enough to give this game a chance. Especially with the variety of different enemies you face in the game. I think the only difference between the versions is both have different sfx for certain things and I remember the game over screen coming down's blood color is different in both games. Genesis: red (reasonable, looks like real blood and looks cool going down unlike the SNES's blood color) SNES: purple. (I always thought it was ugly looking.) If there are any other differences feel free to post them. Those are the ones I remember.

Its been ESRB rated now. So maybe november or december. My guess anyway.

Honestly, I thought they would never do it. 250 still sounds reasonable to me. But I'm not complaining since I got it when it launched.

Already paid off. Can't wait for the 15th.

Cool, maybe I'll learn French now. Lol! I'm joking, I'm joking! I have no interest in learning foreign languages. Still this is pretty interesting being the hardcore retro gamer that I am.

All right! Looks like we're finally getting this amazing game after all! Hopefully this is the start of a future Maniac Mansion VC release announcement and other license companies jumping aboard.

YES!!!!! Finally! (Always thought the Genesis version was better but I still got the cart so I promise I won't complain.) I love this game! Perhaps LucasArts has finally jumped on board. Now announce Maniac Mansion and I'll be REALLY ecstatic.

Obviously Aquateen510 has already forgotten that the Super Star Wars trilogy was recently released. Give it a little more time before you throw in the towel. Although I will side with him on one fact: We should have gotten Super Smash Bros. by now. Even though I don't want the game I seriously believe they should of released that game already. On the subject of DSiWare: There are some good games yet to be released so don't give up on it entirely. Its true its not lived up to my expecations thus lowering my interest of expecting its weekly released game. Just give it more time. It hasn't been out for a year yet. I do believe we are supposed to be getting the virtual handheld for it at some point. Don't know when though.

I'm glad to hear that Tony. Yeah, its been like this for DSiWare since Mario VS. DK3 I think. This also kinda confirms my prediction a while ago that Final Fantasy IV might be saved for release of christmas week this year. Another game I'm surprised that hasn't been released yet is Sonic and Knuckles. Are they trying to add the locked on games causing the delay or are they just being stubborn and gonna release it without them? Anybody heard anything. I've been wondering about this for a while since it was last year that Sonic 3 was released...

Nothing interesting. Where the hell is Final Fantasy?! Japan's had it since June. They could of at least released Arkanoid Plus!

What a crappy update. Still waiting for Final Fantasy, the more I wait the more I feel either 1 or 4 might be released christmas week.

I'm assuming this is the last chapter they're gonna release so I might as well start playing them now.

I'm not surprised. These yearly sports games for me anyway get boring and old fast. I just don't enjoy these games like I did when I was a kid when Tecmo Super Bowl was around.

Make one NES style and I'm golden but with game boy graphics and gameplay? No. I was disappointed when I saw it was the game boy line of castlevania games. Definately thought it was gonna be a 8-bit revival once I saw the title before the pic scrolled down afterward. I think they blew an opportunity to be honest.

Another street fighter game? Give me a break. Move on to another series will ya Capcom? Or at least announce Little Nemo: The Dream Master. Now THAT will get me excited.

I mean seriously, do we need more street fighter games on the VC?

I want Mega Man 10! 9 is amazing.

I can't wait!

Sounds like another wasted channel idea.

Now that the Star Wars trilogy is out Lucasarts, release Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Maniac Mansion!!! I'll get Contra and Jedi eventually.

I can't believe I'm gonna say this...I can't wait till Monday! And if its not too much trouble Konami can you finally release the NES version to the VC? The wait on that is killing me.

Not to the VCA? Forget it then.

I had a lot of fun with game. Shame you gave it a 5.
