    Just bear in mind that we'll likely get the edited U.S. TG-16 version with the red mask.

    This seems to be the case with all TG16 VC games. They are consistent with keeping all games US for the US market.

    (So far I have every TG-16 game offered on VC except Bomberman '93 and Victory Run - I continue to wait for Neutopia II, which will take long time cause Neutopia has yet to come)

    Not sure where you got the info from, but I've been waiting awhile for Beyond Oasis to come out on the VC. Haven't really played since beating it on the Genesis years ago.

    But now, I am not sure who editted it later this afternoon, but that's where I found the infamous, "not sure where I got the info from"

    Beyond Oasis was correct, but Zelda 2 was not...instead we got Excitebike.

    ExciteBike and Splatterhouse on the same day? Best VC day yet in my eyes. I need to get some more Wii points and buy em. ExciteBike is probably my favorite game to just play a round or two on, then shut off.
    Somebody make me a "CGE 2k7 Attendee banner" so I don't have to use this lame text

    Yeah, what threw me was that all of the online news sites/blogs were using pictures featuring Rick in the white mask -- but chalk that up to the craptacular state of Web-based game journalism, I guess.

    I can confirm that you do have the red mask in this game, and the "gore" seems to be tamer than it was the Genesis sequels, IIRC.

    Not a bad buy for the novelty value -- and as a vote of confidence for seeing the sequels on the VC -- but don't expect Streets of Rage with bloody meat cleavers.

    Actually, that's not an open-and-shut question. Obviously, Nintendo THINKS that it will get them more money, but since there's no information (that I'm aware of) on the sales numbers for VC games, it's not safe to assume that it actually will. While, generally, companies will make the better choice, and some deference should be given to the wisdom of such choices, such choices are not infallible.

    Doesn't mean just three, just mean it's just announced. Just give it time. More will follow.

    Yet on another note, are you kidding, that you are kidding, to lead up to that fact, that you are kidding? Japanese companies don't like to kid, unless they like to be kidding about a certain kidding of a game that deals with kidding. Are you kidding now still? Because that's perfectly fine that you are kidding, so it's okay with us.

    P.S. J/K.

    Actually I think its a pretty good choice, and one of the best fighters on the Genesis. It is REALLY over shadowed by the Saturn Version of course, but as it's own game, it's really good.

    I know it's actually a decent game.. I just think it's so funny that Sega tried to pull VF off on a console they knew couldn't run it as it was designed (in a VIRTUAL 3-D world).

    This just made me wonder - I wonder if Nintendo will start releasing 32x games on the VC since they were just graphically upgraded Genesis games (not to mention, the 32x could pull off polygons)?

    Actually, no, I thought it was crap when it was new, and it's definitely crap now.

    Release the ORIGINAL versions, not the Genesis "ports".

    That reminds me, they should put 32X games on the Wii.

    Thats great idea! I'd download that since I own all of 0 games for 32x. I'd really like to have a way to play Kolibri, Zaxxon Motherbase, Knuckles Chaotix, and Shadow Squadron.

    Knuckles Chaotix, Virtua Fighter (hey a REAL 3D one!), Kolibri....Space Harrier...Afterburner...yeah that would be totally worth it.

    For the record, I think the Legend of Kage is an abortion. Nobody remembers that game fondly in my circle, and I don't believe it was a big seller. That's why I asked the rhetorical "are they kidding"? It's an opinion. It is not fact.

    Double Dungeons is another one that leaves me scratching my head.

    That is all. Continue Virtua Fighter discussion.

    I don't blame you, their decision on Legend of Kage was questionable. We could have had Bubble Bobble from Taito instead of that..
