VC Monday Madness video wrap-up 7/02/07

This week sees the release of a game many fans have been dying to get their hands on: Super Mario Bros. 2. Along with that game, comes a title we're pretty fond of in Ecco: Tides of Time and a game we could do without in DRAGON Spirit. Check out the video above and be sure to head past the post break for the rest of the coverage.




DRAGON Spirit (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: do not download


For as much as we love shoot-em-ups, Dragon Spirit doesn't do much to separate itself from the competition. It's just kind of bland. As such, we can't condone you spend the 6 smackeroos to download this title.


Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES, 1 player, 500 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: download it


If we need to tell you what Super Mario Bros. 2 is, you're either a newly-acquired Nintendo fanboy or you're too young to have played the classic. Whatever your story may be, you need to download this game and play it. It's just too fun not to!


Ecco: The Tides of Time (Sega Genesis, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: download it


We played a lot of this game back in the days of the Sega Genesis, so we have a soft spot in our heart for the title. It really demands your time, though, so if you aren't down with sinking lots of it into a Virtual Console game, then you might want to steer clear of this. Everyone else, enjoy.

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.
