New Wii VC Titles Rated By ESRB


"The newest additions include Shining Force for the Sega Genesis and Super Turrican and Super Turrican 2 for the Super Nintendo. The ESRB has also rated Dr. Mario Wii for the Wii, but it's unclear if this is strictly a Virtual Console title. Could this be a new Wii release? Something for the original Wii Ware service?"

Quite excited about the prospect of Super Turrican appearing as it's a brilliant game with an even better soundtrack. Probably CHris Hulsbeck's finest hour.

Never played it myself!

I've had a look around for details, how would you describe it to somebody who's not played it? It sounds a little like Metroid in some ways to me?

[Charlie]

It's more akin to, say, the Contra or Mega Man series as it's basically a straightfoward platform shooter, and a very good one.

Genesis Turican is extremely good, way better than the SNES or Amiga versions. Definately one to pick up.

I doubt its graphics are better than the amiga versions.

We all know 3 sucked a bit, hehe

It looks a lot nicer on the Genesis than the Amiga, which is as it should do, as these type of games suited the Genesis hardware far more than they did the Amiga.
