TurboGrafx16: Bonk’s Adventure, Super Star Soldier, Victory Run, Bomberman ’93, Dungeon Explorer

Full story also mentions the obvious Zelda and a few other Nintendo-produced titles. Nice to see Ecco being available at launch. I loved that game. And Golden Axe.
 
Altered Beast will be my first download. Then probably F-Zero, then Ecco. Sucks that I could just as easily play 75% of the NES games on my Wii just by inserting Animal Crossing.
 
Be cool if you could maybe download NES games to your DS, like you could to the GBA in AC.
 
I just hope those rare classics come out much sooner... like Chrono Trigger.
Ah I guess it will be soon enough. All in good time, all in good time.
 
I want Monster Party and Bad Dudes.

Are YOU a Bad Dude???
 
No. I'm a righteous enough chap.

*wants F-Zero Wii-X to be properly announced*
 
Gunstar Heroes o shi-

Bonk's Adventure should be pretty rockin', too. And with Ecco on the list, I guess I can finally put my poor, aged Genesis into storage. ;_; ♥

Hm. Unsurprisingly, none of the launch games seem that interesting (such an uncomfortable amount of license titles). Except maybe Trauma Center, but that's really just a remake anyway, isn't it? Ah, well~

Damn. Unless the Wii actually comes with some Wii points...I'm done. I wasn't so naive to expect them to be free...but c'mon...I expected something better than this. Don't know what I really expected, but not this.

No, it's a new Trauma Center. Supposedly, it's got a different storyline than Under the Knife. Though I defy them to make it more screwed up than the DS one...

"Better than this?" Come on now...$5 for an NES game, $8 for a SNES game, $10 for a N64 game, $8 for a Genesis game, and $6 for a TurboGrafx16 game? That's damn cheap, especially considering how hard it is to find many of those games nowadays.
 
Yeah, most of these are only available on Ebat for a high price...

*needs to get mom to let him use a credit card now*
 
You don't NEED a credit card. That's just one method. They're also talking about selling the WiiPoints in game stores (would definitely increase the number of people using the virtual console).
 
So, if I got bored with a game, I could somewhat trade it in and get Wii points back?
 
...Which is really clever, on Nintendo's part. (given videogame companies make nothing when their games are sold used, and have even challenged this in court)

I just hope the (hopeful) success of Pokemon Puzzle League downloads (assuming they're available) will convince Nintendo to remake it for the DS. (Hey, I can dream, right?)
 
I'm hoping for a remake of Pokemon Snap, myself. It'd be an awesome game no matter which of Nintendo's two systems (DS or Wii) it would end up on.
 
Yeah. And the DS is practically MADE for a Snap-type game.

Wii too, but I was expecting to see Snap on DS ages ago...
