VC Friday: More like Alien Light Breeze
You know how we gamers like to get all misty-eyed, and bang on about the games of today being child's play compared to the rock-hard titles of yesteryear? Well, today's European and Aussie Virtual Console update provides some evidence against that, because it includes Alien Storm. Sega's side-scrolling shoot-me-do is by no means a bad game, but it was an absolute cinch to complete when this blogger was fifteen, and it's probably not become much harder since.
It's joined by Alisha favorite StarTropics, which yours truly has yet to play. Yes, I am suitably ashamed.
StarTropics -- NES -- 500 Wii points
Alien Storm -- Mega Drive -- 800 Wii points
