VC Recommendations?

Streets of Rage 1 and 2 for sure, unless you got them in one of your retro compilations.

I?ll second that. Me and a mate played through the first few levels earlier, great laugh - especially when you both start punching the **** out of the same guy.

Beyond Oasis is a much overlooked but great title. Well worth buying.

Thanks Kotatsu Neko!

Just downloaded this and although I've only had a quick go I get the feeling this will be really good.

Why do we get the crappy "Story of Thor" name though???

Am I the only person who finds the sight of Mario running around taking all my coins when I buy something just a little perverse? It's like they're really rubbing in just how expensive these games are!!

I'm hoping that Yoshi's Story gets a VC release as it was a favourite of mine even the reviews weren't the best ever.

You're right about Mario. And the sound seems artificially enloudened to hammer it home and the endless coin hitting when it downloads fully is unbearable. Given the chilled feeling of just about everything else on the Wii menus, it's very out of place.

Ninja Spirit was one of my favourite games from back in the day, it's still really good IMO

mario collects coins though, its just a neat little way of showing how much longer you have to wait I thought, although I guess they could have used a different sprite depending on what consoles games you are buying, sonic colecting rings for the megadrive, bonk collecting fruit for the Turbo grafix... though probabaly wouldnt have worked as well as mario hitting blocks and eventually emptying them before moving on. Think youre probabaly being a bit paronoid about nintendo laughing at you there, the games arent even that expensive, no more so than to buy them in a shop anyway usualy, alot of them are probabaly cheaper.
