VC Monday: Plus Four!

My guess is that america and the UK get different libraries, because I haven't seen jackshit that's new in the shop channel.

BECAUSE I SERIOUSLY WANT GUNSTAR HEROES.

Still waiting for SNES and N64 games to roll along...

...and hell, even more recognizable NES games!

Lame! I'm sick of waiting around for the good VC games. What's the deal, Nintendo? I reeealy wanna give you money for some of the promised games like A Link to the Past and Super Metroid, but since you're dragging this out, I can't!

It just feels like Nintendo is squandering a great money-making opportunity with the VC, due to a very lackluster roundup of games at launch. There are dozens of games that I'd be willing to buy, but I may never even see half of them over the life of the console. And I was so excited about the VC, too.

Yeah, and no Super Mario Brothers? WTF...

Europe gets new stuff on Fridays, I think.

After playing Twilight Princess I'm anxiously wanting to play the NES and SNES versions of Zelda again and I've sold my SNES a while ago. Would be nice to see link to the past, Legend of Zelda 2, N64's Majora Mask, etc show up soon.

Excuse me? Puyo Pop (Dr. Robotnick) is about 5 bajillion times better than Columns, Tetris, Dr. Mario, or Puzzle League.

Hey...that's a picture of Gunstar SUPER Heroes for GBA...not Gunstar Heroes for Genesis...

If you dont want to be hounded by those "fanboys", you better change it...

Toe Jam and Earl FTW!!!!!! I can't wait for that one. And Battletoads would be cool too. My wife and I would rock out with those games. And Lunar Pool provided some laugh til you fart good times too....

Incidentally, what's everyone using for controllers on the VC games? I ran across 2 of the Wii Classic controllers, but not sure if I need them. May keep one and get a Wavebird to match. will that work since I want to pick up some Gamecube games too?

Mean Bean Machine was the "Americanized" version of the original Puyo-Puyo. Personally I'd rather have the Japanese one.

I love Mean Bean Machine! I have played that game for hours!

@5 - Bad Mojo -Agree with Toe Jam & Earl... my lifes mission is to finaly beat that game!
Also get wavebirds if you are going to get some gamecube games. If you have never played any gamecube. I STRONGLY recomend Super Smash Bros. Mele!! The wavebird is the 2nd best controler. 1st is the Wiimote of course! :)

@8
Thanks for the response. I've actually had my eye on more than a few GC games (Eternal Darkness and Rogue Squadron) so I can't wait for the gaming goodness that is Nintendo to grace my space.

So do I really need the Wii Classic at all then for VC games? Or will 2 Wavebirds cover me?

Also, is there a "complete" list of Virtual console games that are going to be released and I missed it? Need to see what else may be on the horizon...

Gunstar pretty much owns every game in existance .

Gunstar Heroes + Alien Crush = best console lineup EVER

In all honesty, Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is probably the best Puyo that there is. (I mean, obviously, other than the Orig Jap version of the same game)
It's just plain, simple, and the speed increases feel just right.
Nowadays you seem to have to play forever to get to that "Frantic Super Speed" point.

And Minime's right.. Puyo kick's tetris's ass.. In Multiplayer..

@9 I just got F-Zero (never played it before) I relized that its actualy very hard to hit the X and Y buttons on the gamecube controler... especialy for something like Street Fighter.. it would prob be near impossible to compete with someone who has a classic controller if you had a gamecube. I allready have 4 gamecube controllers so ill prob pick up 1 more classic controller... i heard that some games will only let you use the classic.

I found this website .... seems pretty good... for VC games released and comming soon...

I would hope that everything Europe has we will get... they have Donkey Kong Country :\

Yeah, what's with the negativity towards Mean Bean Machine? Have you guys ever played it?

i owned mean bean machine, and to me, it was sega's Dr. Mario.
