    Today's VC release is the following:

    The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask - N64 1,000 Wii Points.

    The source is http://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=18398

    The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the vc's 300th game release in North America. It also is the first N64 game release on the vc this year.

    There hasn't been any emulation problems with the vc version of Majora's Mask after it's vc release in Europe last month based based on Nintendo Life's forum.

    North America is now 1 N64 game release behind Japan for 2009 vc releases. Japan has Super Smash Brothers and it was release earlier in year.

    Today's vc release is the following:

    Clayfighter - Genesis 800 Wii points

    The source is http://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=18489 .

    Clayfighter was released in Europe in February. I used to own the Genesis version of Clayfighter. It is not the worst head to head fighting game I played on the system, but it is one of the worst I played on the system.

    I played my sure of Head to head fighting games on the system and that includes Ball 3d, Justice League Task Force, All Street Figher 2 games, and all Mortal Kombat games for the genesis.

    The worst fighting game I played on the Sega Genesis goes to Virtua Fighter 2.

    There are better head to head fighting games on the Genesis vc side like the 2 Street Fighter 2 games.

    Screenshots, info and gameplay video of Clayfighter is found on http://vc.nintendolife.com/games/megadrive/clayfighter .

    A game review on Clayfighter is found on http://vc.nintendolife.com/reviews/2...irtual_console. The reviewer is a big time fan of head to head fighting games and has a much bigger collection of head to head fighting games than I do.

    Where'd you find the info about the game being released in parts? I thought it was all in one game. I know it was released in parts on Japanese cell phones.

    Oh, I could be wrong then. Someone on an IGN forum said something about it being released in parts, but maybe he/she was just assuming. I checked IGN articles, and there was nothing said about it being released in parts. Hopefully we get it for 1 price.

    There were 17 Koei Strategy game releases in North America for the Snes back in the day. We only got 4 of them on the vc so far.

    Koei is only into releasing games on the Snes for the vc at this time.

    Koei didn't support the vc a lot yet in North America. It took Koei 2 years to get another Koei game on the system after Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV was releasing in March 2007.

    They are not releasing a lot of vc games as you expected. 4 Koei Strategy games released in Nov. 2006 isn't a lot.

    It appears like Koei is about have another break from the vc now in North America, since there are no more esrb rated Koei games, or Japanese vc releases from Koei yet.

    Nintendo should be releasing something good soon on the vc based on the systems the vc has. Here is info each system based what North America could be getting soon on the vc.

    I can tell you that Super Mario Kart got OFLC rated and Pilotwings is ESRB/OFLC rated for the Snes section of the vc and Square Enix did announce Final Fantasy 4 will be coming the vc. The problem is no one knows when for sure.

    North America is one N64 game vc game behind Japan. The game is Super Smash Bros. I don't have an idea when it is coming.

    North America doesn't have the following nes vc games that were released Europe or are ESRB rated: A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia, Devil World (don't know if will ever make it here), Pro Wrestling, Skate or Die, Super Pitfall and Square Enix announced Final Fantasy 1 (Don't know when though).

    North America doesn't have the following Genesis vc Games that that were released Europe or are ESRB rated:

    Crack Down, Earthworm Jim 2, ESWAT: City Under Siege, Pengo, Pulseman, Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye, Sonic & Knuckles (it is ESRB rated, but Sega is making the game XBLA exclusive for a period of time) and The Revenge of Shinobi.

    North America doesn't have the following SMS vc games that were released in Europe: Secret Command(aka Rambo: First Blood Part II), and Fantasy Zone 2.

    According to Hudson's website, Sim Earth will be coming to North America sometime this month.

    There are not Neo Geo Game release plans at this time.

    North America doesn't have the following arcade vc games that were released in Europe:
    Space Harrier and Space Invaders was announced by Taito in March as a vc Arcade release(hasn't been released yet in North America.)

    North America doesn't have the following c64 vc releases that were released in Europe: California Games, Cybernoid: The Fighting Machine, Impossible Mission, Impossible Mission II, International Karate +, Jumpman, Last Ninja 2: Back with a Vengeance, Last Ninja 3, Mayhem in Monsterland, Paradroid, Uridium, Winter Games, and World Games.
