Re: Ten Arcade Games We'd Like To See On The Virtual Console Arcade

marktheshark

What I would like to see:

NARC
Total Carnage
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
L.A. Machineguns: Rage of the Machines
Hydro Thunder (If the N64 version isn't released 1st)
Rampage: World Tour (N64 version might come instead)
CarnEvil
Gauntlet: Dark Legacy
San Francisco Rush Trilogy
Virtua Cop Trilogy
Sega Sonic the Hedgehog

I know I can get most of these games on the Midway Arcade Treasures compilations, but the emulation issues kinda annoy me.

@Tides of Chaos, 24

What about Solvalou? I don't think that game was ever ported to a compilation. Same with Emeraldia, Cosmo Gang the Puzzle, Cosmo Gang the Video, Burning Force, Assualt, Cyber Sled, Rolling Thunder, Dragon Buster, Finest hour, Star Blade, etc. I don't think any of these games have been put in a compilation & they're coming to the VCA.

Now that Ninty shows us that the VC can emulate expansion pak games. I wonder if any 3rd party N64 games that'll come out eventually that use the expansion pak optionally will be expansion pak enhanced or will be the normal versions of the games.

Re: SD Card Game Launching + Arcade Games Available on VC Now!

marktheshark

I would like to see:

L.A. Machineguns: Rage Against the Machines
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (If Midway doesn't go bankrupt)
Super Sega GT
House of the Dead I
Street Fighter III
Virtua Fighter 2 & 3
Street Fighter Alpha 1 & 3 (SNES version of 2 might be released)
TMNT
Dead or Alive 1
Ridge Racer
Sonic the Hedgehog Arcade
Gauntlet Dark Legacy

I know most of these games probably won't be on the VC anytime soon.

Re: Review: King of Fighters Collection: The Orochi Saga (Wii)

marktheshark

To be honest, I always prefer KOF '96 & KOF '97 over KOF '98 somewhat. I'm also glad that SNK Playmore USA fixed most of the glitches that the PS2 version has. Now if we could just get a KOF NESTS Collection, with KOF 2002 included. If that doesn't happen, then SNK Playmore should at least release the rest of the KOF games (from KOF '95 to KOF 2003) onto the Wii Virtual Console.

Sorry if I'm rambling a little too much.

Re: Hudson Not Abandoning Virtual Console After All?

marktheshark

Has the vc reviews staff send their suggestions to Hudson yet? If it hasn't happened yet, then I would like to see:

Bomberman 2 (NES)
Super Bomberman 1-5 (SNES)
Y's III (TG CD)
Y's IV (TG CD)
Bomberman 64 (N64)
Bomberman Heroes (N64)
Bomberman 64 JPN- Only version (N64)
Legendary Axe 1 & 2 (TG 16)
Ginga Fukei Densetsu: Sapphire (TG CD. Uses Arcade card)
Super Adventure Island 1 & 2 (SNES)
Hagane: The Final Conflict (SNES)

Re: EU VC Update: Mario Golf and Wonder Boy in Monster Land

marktheshark

It's about time you guys get another N64 game. I' am hoping that Ninty eventually will fix the Memory & Expansion Pak problem.

@11, Wii-c-kid

Just for saying that. The chances of Eikou no St. Andrews (St. Andrews Old Course) & Waialae Country Club coming to the VC have increased by 100%!

Re: USA VC Update: MUSHA

marktheshark

@42, That Guy from Faxanadu

Yes! I really hope they bring in Fatal Fury Special, KOF '95, The Last Blade, & maybe even Twinkle Star Sprites!

Re: ESRB Cleans Up

marktheshark

Surely, you guys could've just ignored Littlemac's innapropriate comments & move on with life.

@Nintendork, 105

I won't be surprised if most of the games that were just removed from the ESRB show up on a much later date on the Wii VC & the ESRB, but we'll probably have to wait a LONG time for Uniracers. Around years at least!

Re: ESRB Cleans Up

@betagam7, 97

Have any sources of this so called "lawsuit", and several barbed & coded lawsuits to Sega? Can you please post links to screenshots containing these "barbed & coded" insults?

Re: ESRB Cleans Up

marktheshark

@76, Cally

Probably, there's a few other games that came out on VC (KDL3, Kirby 64, etc) before their VC version ratings were shown on the ESRB website. I think the VC games that were removed from the ESRB would still come out, but we'll have to wait a while for them & even longer for Hagane.

Re: ESRB Cleans Up

#67, mummydaddy

No. What they need to do instead first is to be less strict to the 3rd parties that support the VC, so that the chances of any more of them leaving would be reduced. Not only that, but communicate more to the regular Wii Shoppers, do like what the JPN VC is doing & put up a list of games at the end of every month that're planned to come out next month in the Wii shop channel.

@Deggs, 63

I won't be surprised if Hudson resumes VC support eventually, though it could take a while before they do that though.

Re: ESRB Cleans Up

@Kevin

I' am not sure if a developer named "Konsmi" would exist.

Seriously, I checked the ESRB site & I still see the ratings for Hagane, Aerofighters Assualt, Beetle Adventure Racing, Tinstar, & Uniracers. I wonder how many times VC Reviews would say that several VC games' ratings are gone, yet they show up again hours later.

Well, I guess these games would probably still come out eventually, but Hagane will have to wait it's turn...for now.

Re: ESRB Cleans Up

marktheshark

@Angelic Lapras King

What's so bad about having Aerofighters on the VC? There's at least a few fans who would want this game to come out on the VC. Besides, I think it's better to have it on VC rather than not have it on there.

Re: USA VC Update: Castlevania III

marktheshark

Sounds like a pretty good week. I think that Rondo of Blood would make its way to the VC eventually. Besides, what does Hudson have to do with releasing Rondo of Blood? Arn't they in charge of all TG-16 games coming to the VC?

Re: Fatal Fury Special

marktheshark

I' am probably going to download this one when it comes out. None of the other games that're in FFBA Vol. 1 interest me, except for maybe Fatal Fury 3.

@Segasonic

What's so bad about Neo Geo fighting games? Are you just mad because neither majora's mask or Earthbound is in the vc yet?

Re: Ten Games We'd Like To See On The Virtual Console In 2009

@dfalco
You do realize that Rare games probably won't happen for at least a few years, right? The other games on your list however, have a good to great chance of showing up eventually. I especially agree to your other wish list. I hope we get KOF'95 as well as '96, '97, '98, '99, 2000, 2001, 2002, & 2003.
