Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers, wasn't the last SNES Street Fighter title. The last was Street Fighter ZERO 2. Now if Nintendo is going to release TurboGrafx-CD titles for the Virtual Console, then I'm hoping for the release of Fighting Street (a.k.a. the original Street Fighter, Street Fighter 1). I would love to play that version... I've only played it on mame. The original Street Fighter facinates me... so I'd really like to play some of the ports. |

Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers, wasn't the last SNES Street Fighter title. The last was Street Fighter ZERO 2. Aye, that it was not. That's why I said the Street Fighter madness is almost over. ;D Then there's the potential for Fighting Street (as you mentioned), the Genny SF ports (and they better not go there), the "tacked-on-for-name-only-to-boost-sales" Street Fighter 2010 for the NES, and then it'll all be said and done. At least the latter game hasn't been ported all over the place. |

Australia and Europe will be getting Super Street Fighter II (SNES, Capcom) today.
Also, a new Duo game has popped up in Europe's ratings - Psychosis (Compile). It and Lords of Thunder are dated for February for Europe.

Only 1 game for NA this week, but it's a good one - 1080 Snowboarding (N64, Nintendo). I'll be DL'ing it. ^_^
Also, Psychosis (Duo, Compile) has been rated for NA too.

These 1 game weeks absolutely need to stop (I'm not that happy about 2 game weeks either, but I can deal with it).
Japanese release list for Feb is up too.
So, do we think us westerners are getting Custom Robo? Or will we get a different N64 title? Or even no 64 title this month?

New rating for Phantasy Star II (Gen, Sega, NA, EU)...good to see the Phantasy Star series pop up. As for Europe and Australia's new release, it's Adventures of Lolo 2 (NES, HAL)...and that's it. I'm not sure I like this current 1 game a week thing...

NA players can download Operation Wolf (NES, Taito) and Columns III (Gen, Sega) today. Better than the one-shot last week (two weeks for PAL users). XD Let's hope for an upswing!

On the other hand... they're not exactly two GOOD titles  I wonder why there's been such a downturn lately... I haven't felt the desire to stock up on Wii Points for ages. |

I've been wondering that myself. It's not exactly like they're running out of good games. The NES alone is still ripe for picking. Where's Castlevania III, Power Blade, Vice: Project Doom, Kickle Cubicle, Metal Storm, TMNT II & III, Contra, Little Samson, etc, etc? Is Nintendo trying to "lengthen the life" of the Virtual Console? Is that even a concern? |

Not to mention Crystalis, Gargoyle's Quest II, Little Nemo, Strider, Battle of Olympus (although I do doubt we're ever see that one...), and the list could go on and on. And w00t Power Blade. That is the one NES title I desparately want more than any other. |

I hope to see a few more licensed games, like Little Nemo and The Lone Ranger, and of course, more TMNT games. Especially The Hyperstone Heist on the Genesis since I don't have that one. The question is whether or not the VC sales will pay for the licensing fees. While I'm at it, how about Cool Spot on the SNES? On the surface, it seems like a cheap cash-in to advertise 7up, but it was actually a surprisingly fun platform game with good graphics (reminiscent of Earthworm Jim) and a catchy soundtrack (composed by Tommy Tallarico of Video Games Live fame). 7up hasn't used that ad campaign in about 15 years, so really, the game is no longer relevant, and we'll probably never see it on the VC. |

Cool Spot was an awesome game. Wasn't there a gameboy version too? I think I remember playing that when I was younger, although I've never seen the SNES version. I like the sound of Street Fighter II and 1080 Snow, but I have no monies  and I think I have a random amount of spare Wii Points I haven't used, like 200 or something... |

According to MobyGames, Cool Spot was available for the SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, Game Gear, Master System, PC, and Aimga. There was also a game simply called "Spot" that was in the vein of Go and Othello, but was generally pointless. It also seems there was a game called "Spot Goes to Hollywood," and from the looks of it, it used an isometric perspective. That's about it for the 7up licensees. |

Speaking of franchised games, any of you play McKids? Do you think that has a chance on Virtual Console?
