With the NA releases of Sin & Punishment and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels on the Virtual Console, paying attention to which games get VC releases in both Japan and Europe get much more important, as these games are then ready to be used on the VC, and sport the possibility of crossing the ocean.

Highlighting Europe's offering this week is Double Dribble for the NES.

Joining it, is well... nothing. Note that I said "offering" not "offerings" previously. The only game Europe got was Double Dribble. I think Super Mario Galaxy releasing today has something to do with it. For the record, this phenomenon of only one VC game in an update already happened in NA, a while back with Romance of the Three Kingdoms for the SNES.

If you were expecting another hugely popular, great game today to coincide with the release of Super Mario Galaxy, you are, sadly, wrong. While the game (Yes, GAME) was indeed quite popular, I wouldn't quite call it good these days.

Today's ONLY new game is Double Dribble for the NES. It's another one of those games like China Warrior - The game attracted many people because of it's good graphics, but the gameplay is incredibly lackluster.

Yes, that's the only game this week! Just forget Virtual Console this time and get Super Mario Galaxy - It's truly an amazing game! Check out Double Dribble's review (If you dare):
