Two Classic Characters Return For Resident Evil 5's Mercenaries Reunion
17 hours 25 mins ago
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.
Compared to last week, Europe's Virtual Console offerings doubled, and the continent gets two pretty good games.
Those games?
Both are pretty good games in their own right. We can probably expect to see Bubble Bobble hit NA shores soon. We've already got The King of Fighters '94.
Only two games for Europe this week, but who cares? Both of them are fantastic games, each with their own cult following! First off, we have The King of Fighters '94, the first in a long, long SNK fighting series, which has yearly installments (It's still going!). The series combines characters and stages from various SNK series into one massive game, which provides tons and tons of entertainment. There's a reason it's loved by so much people!
Second this week, it's Taito's classic arcade game, Bubble Bobble! As Bub and Bob your objective is to trap enemies in bubbles and then pop them to defeat them. Sounds simple and boring on paper, but it's actually really, really addictive. This game also lead to loads of sequels and spinoffs, a lot of them better than the last. The NES port is almost arcade-perfect as well!
No reason to complain this week - Let's just forget what happened last week, shall we? Check out the reviews:
Bubble Bobble - NES - 500 Wii Points
The King of Fighters '94 - Neo Geo - 900 Wii Points
