VC Tuesday: We got a great big Comvoy

The only Virtual Console game going to Japan this week that isn't already available in the U.S. is Transformers: Convoy no Nazo, translated on the box as "Mystery of Comvoy." It may just supplant Urban Champion as the worst game on the VC. It's so awful that it's kind of adorable. It's so awful that Nintendo made a second Famicom game available to make up for it.

Aside from the ironic enjoyment of Transformers, Japanese gamers can for-real enjoy the excellent Lords of Thunder. And they can react to the WiiWare release of TV Show King with mild interest.

• Transformers: Convoy no Nazo (Famicom, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points)

• Yoshi's Cookie (Famicom, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points)

• Winds of Thunder (Lords of Thunder) (PC Engine, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
