Virtual Console Monday's!
Here in North America, the Wii's Virtual Console is consistantly updated with an average of 4 titles. Here are this Monday's titles according to Nintendo's Press Release...

Ice Hockey (NES®, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): Ice Hockey is hard-hitting, fast-action competition that re-creates all the excitement of the sport from faceoffs to penalty shots. Players pass the puck and shoot to score while using defensive tactics, including fake shots and ice brawls to crush adversaries. It’s up to the player to find the best strategy to win the game – finesse or power.
Gunstar Heroes™ (Sega Genesis, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): The Gunstar 9 planet was peaceful for many years until the vicious dictator, Colonel Red, kidnapped the Gunstar twins’ older brother and used mind control to make him his slave. Players face many different enemies and bosses while battling to stop the dictator from unleashing “Golden Silver the Destructor” with apocalyptic consequences.
Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine™ (Sega Genesis, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points):Dr. Robotnik is stamping out music and fun in Mobius with his giant robotizing Mean Bean Steaming Machine. Before he turns all the citizens of Beanville into robots, players must save the day by gathering up beans in matching colors and defeating Robotnik’s guards.
Alien Crush™ (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): Alien Crush is a fan-favorite pinball game that features a sinister sci-fi theme. Play through a two-level playing field that comes to life with pulsating alien creatures. Rack up a high enough score, clear the board of these extraterrestrials and discover secret bonus stages. The game features realistic pinball action, complete with a tilt function and two selectable soundtracks. Do you have what it takes to fight back against this alien infestation?

Well holy crap! This Virtual Console thing is rocking hard! Sales of TG-16 titles are spectacular. Simply because they are the most obscure games and they're finding a new generation of gamers to enjoy them. BTW, Alien Crush and Super Star Solider both kick ass!
What's this? Gunstar Heroes!!!! Holy double crap! That shit is da bomb! Mean Bean Machine is a suped up version of Sega's own Puyo-Pop franchise for North America. It too is an excellent game.
As for Ice Hockey for the NES... Never played it. All I remember for hockey on that system was Blades of Steal.
So, it looks like every Monday I'll post the new goodies. Enjoy you're VC!
