Yup, still a browncoat.
Oh man, that sucks. How come ESRB hasn't taken down the rating then, if that's the case (hell, why'd they even put it up there in the first place...)?
So is this the first US C64 game on the VC?
And don't bring up that stupid girlie Aladdin rip off! Shantea?
No. The first US C64 games on the vc were release on February 23, 2009.Originally Posted by Famidrive-16
The first US c64 games on the vc were Last Ninja, Pitstop II, and International Karate.
Great news on that, The Lost Stars was always a favorite of mine. It's as if Wonder Boy made a pit stop in the Alex Kidd universe. The game also has one of the most amazingly out of place and offensive sprites in all of kiddie game history - a naked punk with a blue mohawk shitting out skulls in the middle of the third level. The whole game is trippy, but at that point specifically you really have to wonder what SEGA was smoking. I'll definitely be getting this one.

Today's VC releases are the following:
Bomberman'94 - TG-16 700 Wii points
Detana!! Twinbee - TG-16 700 Wii points
The source is http://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=17827 .
This is our import week for TG-16 games.
Bomberman' 94 for the TG-16 is the same game as Mega Bomberman for the Sega Genesis. The only difference is Bomberman'94 has 5 players and Mega Bomberman has 4 players.
Detana!! Twinbee is a shoot'em up.
I played Mega Bomberman and it is a great game. I assume Boberman'94 is just as good as a result.
Twinbee and Clu Clu Land looks interesting,i hope those games will be available in the US's Wii Virtual Console lineup/selection soon..
.................................................. ......................
Clu Clu Land already was released in the US's Wii virtual console lineup. It was released on September 1, 2008. The proof is http://www.vc-reviews.com/games/nes/clu_clu_land . That link shows the USA release Date.
Nintendo announced the following games were released on the vc today:
Gaplus - Arcade 600 Wii points
Star Force -Arcade 500 Wii points

Wow, I didn't even know Star Force had an arcade version. So, we're getting Namco and Tecmo arcade ports now, but where's fucking Donkey Kong?!!??
I read on numerous video game sites that Super Punch Out for SNES will be released on Monday.
Japan's vc releases for April are the following:
Nes
Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse (Already released in North America and Europe)
Super Nintendo
Der Langrisser
Kirby's Dream Land 3 (already released in North America)
Nintendo 64
The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
Sega Master System
Phantasy Star
Tg-16
Ninja Gaiden
Arcade
Genpei Toumaden (March 31st)
Space Invaders
The source is http://www.vc-reviews.com/news/2009/...ist_april_2009 .
I typed in the final arcade release in Japan for March because Genpei Toumaden wasn't announced as a March vc release in Japan back in February 27th, 2009.

Today's vc release is the following:
Super Punch-Out!! - Super Nes 800 Wii points
The source is http://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=17874.
This game was already announced by Nintendo last week Wednesday during their GDC press conference.
I own the SNES cart and the version on Fight Night 2...but damn this is tempting. One of the best SNES games ever. I think I'm going to bite (Nintendo triple-dip FTW).

Europe got The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask for the vc.
The source is http://www.nintendolife.com/news/200...ajoras_mask_eu . That site I linked is formerly known as vc-reviews.com
Japan will be getting Majora's Mask next week. The Source is http://www.nintendolife.com/news/200...ril_2009_japan .
This means North America may or may not be getting the game soon. There is no info on when the game gets release in North America yet.
What vc emulation info on Majora's mask is found on http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthre...346622&page=49 is the following:
1.) Majora's Mask doesn't have no framerate issues
2. Doesn't have the freeze problems as the Collector's edition for Gamecube has.
3.) The vc version of Majora's Mask has very very occasional sound stuttering or crackling, normally when a new area or cutscene has to load.
This info is from some Wii owner in Europe or Australia that has downloaded the game on the vc,
This info could be useful when Majora's Mask gets released.
Nintendo sure held out on that one for a while there.I guess it was time finally since the, new punchout is due for the wii in a few months.

What is the real name of the Art Style game? I've seen three different subtitles. Aquia, Aquario, and Aquite. In the video in the link you gave, it says Aquario on the games main screen.
"Tell her you want to slide a hot throbbing cartridge in her warm tight console port. And if it starts blinking and flashing to just slide it back out and blow on it a little."--Sothy
i downloaded it and it said aquia. from what i can tell it has different names in different regions. and then people just use them all interchangeably
With my free 1000 points, I got Warioware and Art Style Aquia. I love that when you download something it shows up gift wrapped
Wow. I beat Wario Ware. That took... 5 minutes? It was pretty fun, but I'd be pissed if I spent 5 bucks on that.
I read a quick review after buying it and they said the following:
I agree 100%. Do not waste 500 points on this. We shouldn't have to pay for a short tech demo.The presentation is a classic WarioWare affair, ranging from attractive cartoon stylings to childish scribbles, to Nintendo-themed microgames (although the only one this time around is the coin-grab). The sound is also as wacky and catchy as it usually is, making the game seem like a strong package for a downloadable game. However, on that note, we should re-iterate that this package only consists of 20 easily beaten microgames (when previous games in the series have not had below 180). The cost of the game is only 500 points, but for a game that could conceivably be beaten under ten minutes, it becomes a little puzzling why this wasn't offered as a free download.
And I tried playing Aquia. What the hell was that? I have no idea what the hell I was doing. I played level one and beat it, but I have no idea what the goal was. It took like 5 or 6 frustrating minutes.
edit: I played Aquia a little more, it's pretty fun actually. It's hard to describe but I *think* I've figured it out. It's well worth the 500 points

Uncharted Waters: New Horizons is a strategy game.
This is somewhat of a surprise since Europe got Majora's Mask on Friday and Japan is getting Majora's Mask on Tuesday. I don't have an answer to when Majora's Mask will get released in North America for sure.
