    It really should be IK+ they should release... 

    But I'm pleased to hear that you americans finally get c64 on Virtual Console.
    Was wondering if the C64 wasn't quite as big over there as here in europe, since you didn't have c64-releases in VC.

    To be honest: For every good game on the C64 there are 100 crappy ones. If they want to put some old homecomputer games on the VC why don't they go after the Amiga games?

    IK is a good game as well as Last Ninja
    but I can only see Last Ninja being worth 500 points, the others not more than 300 points.
    variable pricing on VC platforms is badly needed

    It's true that there was a lot of crap on the system, but it really look like they've lined up the *right* titles for release, if the EU-releases are anything to go by. LINK

    Wouldn't mind seeing Amiga though... I might ACTUALLY buy a VC-release if they release Turrican 2 for the Amiga, which in my mind is pretty much the only descent version.

    Spectrum would be sweet also but it seems tying up rights is a minefield...

    MSX is still waiting for a western release :(. I'm looking forward to Aleste, I've always wanted to try the original game out.

    This is good news.  Virtual Console should expand into as many system formats as possible.
