"Nintendo has added a new format to the Virtual Console. The new format is called Virtual Console Arcade and four games are available right now.

Mappy, Gaplus, the Tower Of Druaga (Namco) and Starforce (Tecmo) are the games that are ready for download immediately. All are available for 500 Wii Points.

This could potentially the most exciting addition to the Virtual Console yet, due to the huge possibilities this could bring."

Wow! I hope we will see games like 1914 appear on this new format. Great news!

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I'd love to be playing 1945 Strikers I and II on Wii instead of MAME.
