No specific entries from the two devices were named during Reggie Fils-Aime's presentation at Nintendo's GDC keynote today -- though we've got our fingers crossed for the speedy arrival of Sonic Chaos.

Fils-Aime also confirmed the late May arrival of the Virtual Console via a system update, which wiill also introduce a handful of the device's other online features, including: DSiWare (and the ability to transfer DSiWare games from a DSi or DSi XL), the web browser and eShop. It's likely to be the same update that will add Netflix and some 3D video features, too.

Hudson is (officially) bringing Turbografx-16 games to iPhone and iPod Touch "this winter" in a free TurboGrafx Gamebox app. It'll launch with a library of $3.99 games, and will include one, the Olympic-style World Sports Competition, for free. Each day, Hudson will select one game from the library and make it available through the app for a free three-minute trial.

Hudson didn't announce the initial lineup, but we're going to go out on a limb and guess it'll include Bonk's Adventure and Military Madness. And knowing that many people missed out on the TurboGrafx-16, we're happy to see the games being brought to such a popular platform.

And there's the terrible part. Last time we checked, the iPhone continued not to have buttons. So that's $4 each for a potentially great game to be rendered totally unplayable.

Firmware version 6.3 is out and as Fist Full of Potions points out, something's rotten in Denmark -- or very sweet, depending on how you feel about Japanese consoles of yesteryear. The update allows you to "group content" by putting your games into specific folders corresponding to platform, but also curiously adds empty folders for the NeoGeo and PC Engine -- otherwise known as the TurboGrafx-16.

This update could be the precursor to an announcement for the PC Engine Archives extending their reach beyond Japan or it could simply be an overlooked byproduct of the update. Either way, we've contacted Sony for comment and will let you know what we find out.

A quick look after the break is all you need to realize that you are wrong. Aaron Nanto of pcenginefx.com has filmed a beautiful unboxing video notable not only for its subject (an NEC TurboExpress, the handheld version of the Turbografx-16 console) but for its beautiful cinematography.

For us, this video lies somewhere between "love story" and "pornography," though we wouldn't dare suggest it's indecent to watch. We've never been so thrilled to see five seconds of Keith Courage in Alpha Zones.

As far as imports go, Castlevania: Rondo of Blood is a pretty sweet one. For $9, it's a great game to add to any Castlevania fan's collection and plays quite well on the Wii: casual players get a forgiving save structure and stage system, while the hardcore fans get the same tried-and-true gameplay. Rondo of Blood is suited for quick pick-up sessions or even long marathon outings. Basically: you should play this game. It's good -- seriously good.

It features the standard two-button controller, with turbo switches, and a 5.4" screen. It's a nice compromise between the two existing Turbografx-16 handhelds, combining the TurboExpress/PC Engine GT's portability with the PC Engine LT's more usable screen size. Also, it's red.

Bacteria has posted detailed build notes for this, in case you'd like to tackle this project yourself. If you're not technically inclined, however, you can always just play PC Engine and TG16 games on your PSP.

Don't worry, Bonk fans. The PlayStation Store's expansion into TurboGrafx territory won't remain a Japan-only affair. Hudson confirmed to Siliconera that it plans to port its classics onto the North American PSN -- although it didn't provide a time frame. Japanese gamers can already download a variety of "PC Engine" games from the PlayStation Store, including Bomberman '94, New Adventure Island, Sengoku Mahjong and Devil's Crush, each for ¥600 ($6.33). As with downloadable PS1 games, these titles are compatible with both the PS3 and PSP.

SimEarth: The Living Planet (TG16 CD-ROM, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
We say: Best played on PC

This week's release is an oldie, but a goodie: SimEarth: The Living Planet for the TurboGrafx-16. It's been a long time since I played this game, and it's still as fun as I remember it. It's much better on the PC (way better controls), but, if this is your only way to play the game, I'd suggest you check it out.

Nintendo's WiiWare service has apparently sparked a renewed interest in developing games with one pixelated foot rooted in the past. Following both Capcom and Konami's head start, Hudson has likewise decided to dip into its archives, returning with news to bring the Wii-make of its TurboGrafx-16 sci-fi pinball game, Alien Crush, to North America.

Descriptively titled Alien Crush Returns, the download was released today in Japan and is based on the 1988 classic, which itself is available on WiiWare's sister service. While a date for the game's North American debut has not yet been announced, Hudson notes the follow-up will again be played across two screens and an unspecified number of boards, each no doubt filled with galactic baddies with a lust for silver balls. Most interesting, however, is news that Alien Crush Returns will support two-player online play as well as include online leader boards, with Hudson promising multiple online tournaments for the pinball-obsessed to throw down with their E.T. crushing skills.

Sadly, there won't be a video wrap-up for this week's releases. But, we should be back next week with our usual video coverage of the Virtual Console releases on Wii.

Attention "jailbroken" iPhone owners: Touch Arcade reports that it's now perfectly okay to Bonk your wunderphone without having to worry about its purty glass screen cracking. Emulator author ZodTTD (shall we kneel before him?) has ported the nifty TurboGrafx-16 emu, Temper, to iPhone as - wait for it - temper4iphone.

Temper was originally developed for the South Korean GamePark 2X handheld and ran ROM- and CD-Based titles designed for NEC's 16-bit system, which was a smash in Japan (as the PC-Engine) but enjoyed modest success in the West under its Turbo-fied moniker. As you can see from the embedded video, the emu is already plenty impressive. Unlike its GP2X counterpart, there's no support (yet) for CD-based game images, but compatibility with TG-16 ROMs (if you don't own the game, don't download em, 'kay?) is said to be high. Like previous emulators ported to iPhone, the retro console's controls are recreated on the touch screen.

Apple is expected to launch its "2.0" refresh of the iPhone along with the iPhone App Store in just a couple of weeks, and we'd be jazzed to see a proper Virtual Console-esque suite of "sanctioned" emulators offered for download via the service.

It's good to be back in the saddle. I've finished the video and placed it above for your viewing pleasure, checking out the duo of this week's Virtual Console releases. Hopefully, in failing to provide you guys with a video last week, I haven't lost my touch. And, by "my touch," I mean the ability to produce a video that only makes you want to vomit mildly.

Head past the break for the usual follow-up coverage.

It's Monday, which means that the Virtual Console provides us with downloadable entertainment. It's been awhile since we've gotten a N64 game, so color us excited about that. As for the other title up for for grabs, well ... we don't really have any experience with that one. So, we're looking forward to trying that out.

This week's Virtual Console releases include:
  • Kirby64: The Crystal Shards (Nintendo 64, 1 - 4 players, 1,000 Wii Points)
  • Psychosis (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points)
And, unlike last week, you can definitely expect a VC Monday Madness video wrap-up later on today.

Today's Virtual Console offerins are in stark contrast of one another. On the one hand, you have a calm, some would say somber, title like Harvest Moon, where you'll settle for nothing less than having the best farm ever. On the other hand, there's Lords of Thunder, which tasks the player with shooting the crap out of everything on screen.

This week's Virtual Console releases are:
  • Harvest Moon (SNES, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
  • Lords of Thunder (TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
Be sure to stop back later for our video wrap-up of this week's Virtual Console games.

Another week means another bunch of Virtual Console games. Like last week, this week only brings us two titles, but one of them excites us very much. The other title is one we're familiar with and enjoy. So, it looks like today is going to be a good day for the Virtual Console.

  • RiotZone (1 player, TurboGrafx16, 800 Wii Points)
  • Pac-Attack (1 - 2 players, SNES, 800 Wii Points)

Sorry, it took us longer than we wanted to get this up and out onto the net. Video complications meant I had to film my escapades on the Virtual Console twice. Have no fear, though. I still managed to get the thing done today and play the releases for you. Late is better than never, right? Right?

It's Monday, which means we celebrate the release of new titles on the Wii's Virtual Console. This week has three new titles, each of which has an 800 Wii Point price tag. And, even better, we get a nice variety of titles from a variety of consoles. Variety, we love it!

This week's Virtual Console releases are:
  • Cybernator (SNES, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
  • Alien Storm (Sega Genesis, 1 - 2 players, 800 Wii Points)
  • Monster Lair (TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM, 1 -2 players, 800 Wii Points)

Another Monday, another slew of new games to download on the Virtual Console. For most of you, the big title this week involves combat and bloodshed, as the Mortal Kombat wannabe Eternal Champions becomes available. The other two titles up for grabs aren't ones we have any personal experience with, to tell the truth.
  • Eternal Champions (Sega Genesis, 1 - 2 players, 800 Wii Points)

Note: I made the same mistake while recording the video tonight, commenting that Super Air Zonk was the first TG16 CD game in North America. Sorry for the blatant error on my part.

With the Wii turning 1 today, we'd hope for some kickass titles on the Virtual Console to celebrate its launch. Sadly, that isn't the case, as the releases today aren't all that great. Still, we soldier on and play the crappy games so you don't have to! Hit up the video above, then check out the rest of the coverage past the break.

Update: Sorry, folks. I overlooked that Gates of Thunder was the first TG16 CD game to release, not Super Air Zonk. Silly me, I also made a huge mental error in stating Working Crew was releasing.

This week's Virtual Console update shows the release of the first a new TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM game in the United States. Rejoice! Along with that game, come two more, so we get our usual triple dose of downloadables. Those with a keen eye will know a similar game released some time ago.

Virtual Console releases for November 19th are:
  • Wrecking Crew (NES, 1 - 2 players, 500 Wii Points)
  • Sonic 3D Blast (Sega Genesis, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)
  • Super Air Zonk (TurboGrafx16 CD-ROM, 1 player, 800 Wii Points)

Oh no, boys and girls, because as we needed to break the news of what was arriving today during yesterday evening (today had a big release, so we needed to inform you as soon as we could), we felt another post would be ... well, just a tad bit on the side of not needed. So, hit up the video above and be sure to check past the break for the usual.

And before you ask, that DVD in the lower left-hand corner is Braveheart. I felt a need to put it on today while I worked.

Oh, how we love Mondays. Our wallets, however, have a whole different idea regarding the start of the work week. And, this week, our wallets hate us that much more as the titles on offer cost their fair share of dough. Lucky for us, and for you all, this week's available titles are more good than bad.

The obvious high-profile game here is Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, which you all likely remember (whether you enjoyed it or not). That doesn't mean we should forget about the other two games, though.

Welcome to our weekly feature, Virtually Overlooked, wherein we talk about games that aren't on the Virtual Console yet, but should be. Call it a retro-speculative.

If you've read Wii Fanboy for any amount of time, you know that we appreciate Turbografx-16 pinball games. It's pretty likely that if you glance at the site at any random moment, you'll see the words Devil's and Crush somewhere on the screen, usually under a "JC Fletcher" byline. The pinball games more than justify the system, especially now that you don't need a Turbografx-16 system to play them.

As awesome as it is to have two great TG16 pinball games on the Virtual Console, it would be more awesome to have three. Obviously. Time Cruise is the elusive, lesser-known Turbografx-16 pinball game.

Surprise! It's another shooter! The ESRB now has a rating for one Turbografx-16 CD-ROM title: Super Air Zonk, the sequel to the futuristic Bonk spinoff that is already winning hearts and minds on the Virtual Console. Apparently it's not as good as the first Air Zonk game, and, being a CD game, it'll be more expensive. But it is interesting that Hudson's skipping over early Turbo CD games like Ys I & II and going straight to a Duo title.

As saturated as we are with shooters, we're still holding out hope that we'll get Cho Aniki on the VC like Japan is. A very faint hope.
