When did the Virtual Console get an update?  I am under the impression it has been awhile before they released anything new for it.

Actually, on this subject, there's an old NES game that I used to LOVE as a kid, but I don't remember the title, or much about it. It felt Kid Icarus-ish (but with shorter sprites) since you could jump up to get to other parts of the dungeon. And you start outside, on the right of the screen, walk left, and fall into a dungeon. I have tried to download any game with a title that COULD have been this game, but I've yet to find it. I don't even really remember the gameplay, I just remember loving the game. I must find it.



Long shot, but does this look familiar?



It's the closest I can think of...

Actually YES that looks familiar, what is it? I'll have to try it out to be sure.



That's Legacy of the Wizard, one of the games I recommended before. Google up some more images of it if you remember more of the game.

THIS IS IT!!!!!! Oh man, this was my favorite game when I was a kid, but for whatever reason I could NEVER remember the title. There was this one room with the dragon in the middle of the blocks that I NEVER forgot though. I just got to that room =)

Thank you so so so much, you are the best.

Xenogears, Saga Frontier 1/2, Mega man Xs + Legends, Grandia 1/2/3

Those are all on my list for now. I've never been too into the Lunar games, something about the combat bores me, and I can only get about 70% of the way through them.

Haven't played Spyro in FOREVER, maybe I'll check it out again =) If I have time! Busy enough with Parasite Eve and Saga Frontier 1 for now.



Hexen - good old game

Did you play Hexen 2? The class system was much better, plus the conclusion to the whole Hexen/Heretic saga was amazing in that game ;)

YES! I love Heretic/Hexen/Hexen 2. Another to add to the list. I should compile a new list soon =) I really won't be buying any new games beyond SC2 and Civ 5 for about 9 months at this rate =)

There are so many good games to play from the past xD On this cue, I started playing Vagrant Story a couple of days ago. Man that game had so much strategy behind it. I was getting raped by a boss because I forgot to properly level up a weapon type for it xD
