Wait wait wait, why don't we get River City Ransom?

In fact, why are we consistently being boned out of VC games? Is it because they know that with one Wii Ware game, our system will be full, then forcing us to store crap on SD cards, thus adding time to moving the game over and making us not want to play it?

Fuck.

This february 25th, the VC will see Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards (N64) and Psychosis (TG16).
Alright, Kirby 64! That launched around the time I was too busy scraping together fun bucks for a PS2, and Nintendo released like eight copies across the country, several hidden in their company cars (station wagon) glove box. So I never got to play it.

Because Ultra 64's technology is the very same used to render the dinosaurs in the upcoming Jurassic Park movie, and if it launched right now it would cost the consumer eighty billion dollars to even look at the box. NASA is also providing technical help to keep the system from launching into outta space. Killer Instinct and Cruis'n USA are powered by SILICON GRAPHICS and you can't expect that sort of virtual reality to come cheap.

Also Lukage guess what I was playing on my Wii earlier fuck yeah that's right River City Ransom IAHUJAHUUHAUHAUHUHAUHAUHHUAHUAHUA it's so good, sometimes I tongue the TV screen.

I once bought a Dreamcast just for playing River City Ransom. Easiest homebrew system ever. Homebrew for River City Ransom.

loooool time to buy Kirby 64 yet again and not play it because of *distractions*.

So we've gone down to two games per week on the Virtual Console. Am I the only one seeing something wrong with this? At least the quality has gone up from the games because now I'm hearing titles and mascots I'm familiar with each week.

How the fuck is an N64 game $10 on VC when a PS1 game is $5.99 on PSN.
That might be Sony's apology for overpricing the PS3. XD Hell, Sonic 2 was cheaper on the 360 than it was on VC. People will still buy the game on the VC even if it's overpriced. It's stupid, but hey I'm right there with them. I bought Mario 64 on N64, DS, and Wii and collected all the stars in all of them.

Plus some of those games are hard to come by legally.

Super Fantasy Zone and Pengo, both for the Genesis, have been rated by the ESRB for their american release.

Back to one game a week.

Super Turrican.

Okay seriously Nintendo. Fuck you. Yes, good music, but regardless, that's only one game.

You'd think they would've at least released Super Smash Bros. as a promotion for Brawl. Also, have all of the masterpiece demos on Brawl been released on the VC? If not, then there's your VC release list for next Monday.

No clue what that is, so I guess the answer is no.

Also we learned that when a new game comes out (Metroid, Mario, etc.) on the Wii, they don't link the concept to a VC release, so don't count on the N64 game being available.

Which, if reports from people who have the US version early are any indication, isn't the case.

Wether or not they're unlockables in Brawl remains to be seen, but it appears that more than a few people have said it's not there.

Of course, this is hardcore rumour time with no reputable source, but that's the early word.

That's not really true at all. When Metroid Prime 3 was released they declared Metroid month with the first monday releasing Metroid on the VC, Super Metroid the next week, and then Prime 3 coming out the following week. So they link it sometimes.

It's going to be incredibly lame if Earthbound isn't one of the masterpiece demos in Brawl. You can't claim a feature is to familiarize people with the games the characters are from and then not have one for Ness, considering how few people knew him before Smash Bros.
Sup?
