    Three games up today for the Virtual Console in North America -- two disparate shooters and, just to mix things up, a racing game. Though after Gradius, we're not sure if Nintendo shouldn't take a break from scrolling shooters in favor of something a little different for a while, since after Gradius, there's many a game that just doesn't seem quite as good. And according to you guys, the VC needs to start branching out a little more anyway! Perhaps next week. For this week, however:Xevious (NES) -- 500 pointsR-Type III: The Third Lightning (SNES) -- 800 pointsMotoRoader (TurboGrafx 16) -- 600 points[Thanks to everyone who tipped us on this!]
