Iwata has announced yet another platform expansion for Wii's Virtual Console. Virtual Console Arcade will offer classic — meaning old — arcade titles not available on other systems. Four launch games are available for download right now (directly to an SD card, if you prefer — haven't you heard?), with two additional titles possibly available later day. Here's the starting lineup:
