VC Monday Madness video wrap-up 6/25/07
Can you hear that? It's the sound of precious dollars dying, as they're exchanged for so many digital goods that come from the Virtual Console. This week brings a new N64 game, as well as a new SNES and TG16 game. Hit up the video above and see the action, or check the text and images past the break, Or, do both!
So many choices ...
China Warrior (TurboGrafx-16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: download it!
When we started playing China Warrior, we thought it was a joke. Someone replaced our copy of China Warrior with this game, we would play for a few minutes then someone would jump out of our closet and tell us we're on candid camera. But no, this game was apparently meant to be this hilarious and, because of that, we love it.
Fighting Marlon Brando from Apocalypse Now at the end of the first level? Brilliant!
F-Zero X (N64, 1-4 players, 1000 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: download it!
We know you could probably find an actual cartridge copy of this game for around $10 bucks and, in all honesty, probably be a lot happier, but the game is great no matter which way you acquire it. So, whether you want to download it or find it in a bargain bin, we feel you just need it.
Street Fighter II Turbo Edition: Hyper Fighting (SNES, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: do not download
This game is a great game, but without having any kind of added functionality, it's a pretty barren title to ask folks to plunk down $8 bucks for. So, if you're a fan of the franchise, then go for it, otherwise don't bother.
As always, if you have any tips or rumors regarding Nintendo's Virtual Console service, be sure to let us know and come back next week when we take a look at the latest titles available on the Nintendo Wii.
