Super Street Fighter II, Adventures of Lolo 2 on Virtual Console today

Wow, it's times like this we're glad we don't have to pick a featured game for Virtual Console release section. Which would we choose? A mediocre puzzle game starring a little fuzz ball, or the fighting game voted Most Likely To Depict a Green Monster Puking for like 20 years running? Decisions, decisions.

Super Street Fighter II (Super NES, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): Back in the day, when new Street Fighters were being released more frequently than Friday the 13th movies, it was hard for us to keep all of them straight. These days, we likely couldn't tell Noob Saibot from Akuma. So, as a refresher, this is the one with Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Guile, Blanka, E. Honda, Zangief, Dhalsim, Balrog, Vega, Sagat, M. Bison, T. Hawk, Deejay, Fei Long and Cammy. Now, as to what all those words mean, well, we trust you can find the way to the Wikipedia section of the internet.

Adventures of Lolo 2 (NES, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone, 500 Wii Points): We're sorry about earlier when we called Lolo 2 mediocre. We feel bad about it. We just don't understand what kind of person got the first Lolo and was left clawing their skin for more. But hey, if that was you, far be it from us to stand in the way of your happiness. You fly that flag, homes. You fly it.
