@ThomasBW84 I can dig it.

Not a fan of any of the post-DKC2 Kongs. They got more irritating than funny by that point, I think.

Are we talking former Crash Bandicoot and Jak & Daxter developers? If so, I expect some quality gaming here.

Sanzaru for the 3DS? Sign me up. Sly 4 was the best Sly game.

Updating Ninja Gaiden, and I guess that's it.

Lame excuse and weak decision. But it's not a surprise, not in this era of the industry.

I'm not much of a fan of this one. I still think the SMB2 we got was the better game and the more fun of the two.

The GBA still has my favorite portable library.

Bring on Double Dragon Advance, Mega Man Zero series, Klonoa, Sonic Advance, and Ninja Five-O!

@FJOJR None of the Smash 64 hidden characters (aside from the obvious Luigi) are going to be revealed. They weren't revealed before Brawl came out either.

My question is, other than Snake, who is getting cut? Surely somebody won't be making the jump from Brawl but the obvious cuts seem to be making it in this one.

Contra 4, Henry Hatsworth, and Giana Sisters DS. I'm kind of surprised none of them are up there especially since the first was never released in EU.

They really should port Four Swords Adventures to the eshop.

@Fabaroo The shop hasn't updated yet.

All the Sega systems, please.

I'm far more interested in Yarn Yoshi being that a better developer is behind it.

I'm really eager for Yarn Yoshi as it is by the highly underrated Good Feel who made two of the best Wii games. It also might be the best Yoshi platformer since Yoshi's Island which is something the green dino really needs.

I usually finish COD campaigns in under 7 hours, so this a better deal. Color me impressed.

This has been the worst month for the eshop by far. It's time for more VC systems already. Nintendo really needs to turn this around fast.

Virtual Console and a StarTropics that is nothing like Tomb Raider/Uncharted style of scripted movie-games.

How about NES Rygar from Tecmo instead? That game wasn't even released on the Wii VC.

Oh, I think I just answered my own question.

One of the best games ever made.

I sort of wish they would have ditched the rocket barrel levels and brought back other animal friends instead, but this game looks so good it's a minor complaint.

What a boring week.

Yay, finally X2! Hopefully X3 isn't too far away!

I got it up, but it's working slowly.

@MrWalkieTalkie I have no idea. Gamers will complain about anything.

@PorllM The poll is about what you're downloading FIRST.

It would make more sense to me to download the game that is smaller and takes less time.

SMB3 before the year's end, huh? We're still backlogged on releases. ALTTP, MMX2, and still SMB3.

I'll still get Super Punch-Out, because it's a great game, but there's no reason we can't have more than 1 VC game per week.

To add some salt to the wound, we didn't even get SMB3 or ALTTP today in NA.

Oh, NOA, you sure are something else.

Great game, but I really hope they do 2 and 3 eventually. The gameplay just got so much better.

This is a decent version, but Double Dragon Advance is far better.

Either way, I'm awaiting Double Dragon II far more. Now there's an overlooked gem.

I would personally give this a 10/10. Such an excellent action platformer with top notch level and enemy design and fun advanced techniques to pull off. The 3D is also perfect in bringing out the many layers in the fantastic backgrounds.

If you have a 3DS, you really need to play this.

@speedyboris Yeah, it's been like this all day. Nobody seems to know what the problem is.

@IceClimbers Get Shinobi III first. It's so good.

Is there any word on why NES Castlevania isn't offering the discount for those who own it on their Wii VC?

He's the shop keeper, which is mundo radical so we can hear his righteous speeches, dude.

Shinobi III is one of the best games ever made. You're doing yourself a disservice if you don't pick it up.

Personally, I seem to not be getting the discount for Castlevania showing up, so I'll be waiting for that on my Wii U.

@electrolite77 @element187 How does one qualify $5 of enjoyment?

It's still only $5.

@Devilbro

$5 is apparently worth quibbling over because they can get $10 of value out of this game they've never played but not $15 worth based on one video. I mean, five dollars.Especially with the digital promotion, it seems like such a minor thing to harp on.

It's a couple of bucks. Simply pass on one fast food item and you'll have the money. I mean, geez.

I guess you can't be a true gamer unless you always jump to the worst possible conclusion after every announcement.

From what I've seen it looks fairly fun.

This is the exact game I'm glad Retro is making. It looks so great.

Now opening the way for the long-awaited Sonic and Mario platformer.

Seeing as how Yoshi and Zelda are the two crossover DLCs, I'm really hoping that's the reason there was no proper Mario crossover.

Boy, people sure do like to complain over a few bucks. This is well worth the money.

This game looks awesome.

It's a good step forward. Now bring all Sega consoles, Neo Geo, and arcade and we can get to business.

Awesome. I enjoy DW games, but only sparingly. This one is on my radar.

I was sort of hoping for Kirby over baby characters. The MK games need more characters anyway.

Wow NA is missing out on a lot of VC stuff recently. What's the deal?

@MrHandsforth Yes.

@MeWario Ha! They just announced MSX and PC-Engine for the Wii-U VC in Japan and PC-Engine for the 3DS as well. Good timing!

Now we just have to wait for it to get announced here. Hopefully this means more systems are FINALLY on the way.

@Biofan4242 Strider would be up to Capcom and Contra would be up to Konami.

I wouldn't hold my breath for either.

Virtual Console announcements, please. It's time to bring back the old VC systems and add new ones on top of it.

We're more than due for this.
