Default VC one Step Closer to Awesome

The Virtual Console for the most part has become a nice place to pick up an abundance of retro classics and have them one (or two places since big spenders Wii's memory is probably filled by now).

It was all fun for some folks, but honestly if you owned the original was little reason to pick them up again on the VC.

But that has finally changed today as Nintendo has finally started releasing classic games that were never available in the states or not in their original form.

The first is Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels which has been released though not in it's original NES form in the States.

Then there is Sin and Punishment which has never been released in the States other than the fact if you are Gekko. But the game is awesome. And well.. sad it never made it over to the States on the n64. I think it works well on the Cube controller though never originally intended for it.

And as announced earlier in the year, the Virtual Console will see completely original games near the end of the year/beginning of the next year.

Point of this....

Buy Sin and Punishment.

Super excited Sin & Punishment has been released. I remember reading about it way back when and being devastated when it was announced it wouldn't be coming to the States.

Sweet action, yeah.


Probably won't be getting The Lost Levels, but...yay for that.

Lol, I saw that game for €15 in a store. I know it's a rare first party game, but I'm not buying games that suck and that I'll never play.
