Nintendo Announces Virtual Console Arcade
Nintendo is stealing show at gdc
It looks as though the Nintendo Wii will be getting yet another platform, one fans have been waiting patiently (but no less anxiously) for since the service was first announced. Joining the myriad of classic console support that includes the NES, SNES, Genesis, Master System, TurboGraphx-16, NeoGeo, and Commodore 64, Nintendo is adding major support for classic arcade titles for their popular download service.
Games confirmed (so far) :
- Gaplus (Namco Bandai): 600 Wii Points — available now
- Mappy (Namco Bandai): 500 Wii Points — available now
- The Tower Of Druga (Namco Bandai): 500 Wii Points — available now
- Starforce (Tecmo): 500 Wii Points — available now
- Space Harrier (Sega) — coming soon
- Solvalou (Namco Bandai) — coming soon
With thousands of titles to choose from, more will probably be announced soon, but is it too soon to ask for a decent version of Sega’s classic “Golden Axe: Revenge of Death Adder ”?
