I own the Genesis version which I think has more levels. I agree with Corbie this does need to be on the Virtual Console. Interplay is listed as the publisher but doesn't Blizzard own the rights now?
maybe now the VC will get Mortal Kombat? Also does this mean I can take my sd card to a friends house and play my downloaded games on his wii? I don't even have an sd card yet but I was wondering.
It's a shame that more people don't know about this site. As for the list, I guess it just goes to show that gamers are going to purchase the games they are more familiar with and stray away from the ones they've never heard of or aren't sure about.
Great news, I would consider getting all four of these titles!!! Why are they all the megadrive versions instead of the SNES versions though? I always assumed if multi-platform games were released the nintendo versions would get picked over anything else.

I think this game is very enjoyable.

Great to see the mayan adventure. I didn't even know it was rated for a vc release.

I almost bought this off ebay a couple days ago. very glad I didn't. I didn't even know this was rated for a vc release.
Re: Talking Point: Copyright and Video Games
The SNES version of Aladdin was ported to the GBA so obviously capcom and disney agreed to terms for that. So why not the virtual console?

You can change the button mapping by going to options on the games title screen.

Re: Datel Release Retro Controllers for Virtual Console
@macfly77
I'm not sure if the multitap would work either, I don't see why not.
If anyone is interested in a N64 to GC or a genesis/megadrive to GC adapter check out raphnetshop.com
Re: Datel Release Retro Controllers for Virtual Console
I'll just stick with my nes-to-gamecube adapter from retrousb.com
Re: N64 Controller Mod For Virtual Console
I ordered my genesis/megadrive adapter from that site. Kind of pricey but works great.
As for the N64 adapter, not interested. For me the GC pad works just fine.
Re: Splatterhouse 2
splatterhouse 3 is the best in the series IMO.

Re: US VC Releases - 28th April - Double Dragon
Is it just me or is this vc version of double dragon more difficult than what the original nes cart was?
Re: US VC Releases - 28th April - Double Dragon
I have more memories of this game from my childhood than any other nes game. An instant download!

Re: Three Interplay-Owned Franchises Coming to VC
Great news, I would consider getting all four of these titles!!! Why are they all the megadrive versions instead of the SNES versions though? I always assumed if multi-platform games were released the nintendo versions would get picked over anything else.
