kotaku.com/gaming/vc-update/sin--punishment-305491.phpYay! Glad to see that Battle Lode Runner wasn't the only game. Sin & Punishment and Super Mario Bros. - The Lost Levels (aka Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan) have reached U.S. shores...with a steeper price tag to be sure, but at least they're here (and seemingly without a time limit! Woo!) Nintendo's press release makes it sound like this is only the beginning, too. Post your thoughts on both games here!

Excellent news! Plus, some Turbo CD games have been confirmed in Japan. That's one step closer to Castlevania: Rondo of Blood on the Wii!

Nice. Of course I'm waiting for the Fire Emblem games and what game Takamaru was from (Sorry, I can't remember the name >.<).

And now we just wait for the REAL good ones to appear. I'm sure by 2008, we'll be swimmin' in good stuff!

It is really wonderful.. but I hope there is no time limit. That would suck for sure.

Sin and Punishment is absolutely wonderful... in its ROM version, at least. I will strongly consider getting it off of VC. Are the menus completely in Japanese?

The menus are in English, the voices are in English... Only fault is the subtitles are Japanese.

I thought this day was going to be a nightmare for me, but I was incorrect. Not only I'm cheerful about Japan-Only home console titles being released for the Virtual Consoles outside of Asia, but I'm also cheerful about checking out Windows Vista for the first time in my life at college today. It's better than Windows XP.

Got “Sin and Punishment“ any idea how to play it with two players?

Never played 2 player myself, but my understanding is that one player controls the character and the other controls the reticule and shooting. As to how to activate it, no idea.

I've only just downloaded it myself, so I'll let you know. Still, pretty frickin' awesome isn't it?

YAAAAY! Now here's keeping the ol' fingers crossed for the original Fire Emblem, Nazo no Murasame (that's Takamaru's game ), Joy Mecha Fight, and, of course, RONDO OF BLOOD!

Of course we will get Rondo of Blood and the two Metal Gear MSX games. They DID eventually get translated into English... Just not for the console they were designed for.
