VC Monday Madness video wrap-up 7/7/08


This week sees the Virtual Console receiving only one game, but, thankfully, it's a good game. Never played King of the Monsters before? Well, hit up the video above for some gameplay footage, then head past the break for more.




King of the Monsters (NeoGeo, 1-2 players, 900 Wii Points)
Wii Fanboy says: do not download


King of the Monsters is a great game, don't get us wrong. But, like the majority of NeoGeo offerings on the Virtual Console, 900 Wii Points for a single title is kind of a rip. Especially when you consider that this game, along with several other Virtual Console games from SNK, are available on compilations, such as SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1. If you can pick that up, go for it, but it's not reccomended you pay the hefty price for just this one Virtual Console title, when you could easily get a compilation disc for around twice the price and get more than a few games.

Each week, we here at Wii Fanboy like to check out the latest Virtual Console releases in our VC Monday Madness feature, for you, in the hopes that you can make the most sound decision you can regarding purchasing retro titles on the Wii.
