Four classic Interplay Sega Genesis games are en route to the Wii's Virtual Console. Dave Perry's classic platformers Earthworm Jim and Earthworm Jim 2 will both be gracing the download service, along with the campy claymation action of Clayfighter, and the gross-out humor of Boogerman.
According to the press release, all four titles will be the Sega Genesis versions of the games, despite having appeared on both Genesis and SNES. No word yet on when these titles we be released (but we're guessing it'll be on a Monday).

YAY! Earthworm Jim kicks so much ass! Hopefully we'll get a WiiWare Jim game soon, too (with pointer aiming!).
Clayfighter was alright, but my heart shall always belong to Primal Rage, in that regard.

Awesome, Earthworm Jim and Clayfighters were really good games! Looking forward to playing to them again.

Glad to see my childhood favorites are making it to the VC. Might fork over the money just because I loved them so much.

Though I doubt it'll happen, I'd prefer them to release the EARTHWORM JIM SPECIAL EDITION that was on SegaCD/PC than plain EWJ1. Lots more humor... and pencil tests! LoL
