    Today in the US, Super Smash Bros. (for N64), and Ninja Gaiden (for Arcade) are released on the US Virtual Console.  
     
    Last week it was Blaster Master (for NES) and Earthworm Jim 2 (for the SEGA Genesis), preceded by Street Fighter Alpha 2 (for SNES) and Shinobi (for the Genesis).
     
    Also for those interested, Rayman is out on DSiWare, but no one cares.
     
    Also, Castlevania ReBirth is no where to be found....

    Europe's 500th game was Lost Winds 2, a couple of weeks back. 
     
    I hope we get something good on Christmas Day, we've had Smash 64 for a while now, so it wont be that, but we are due Super Mario Kart.

    We've had Super Mario Kart for a while now, but I didn't care much since it was the worst Mario Kart ever made in my opinion.

    Virtual Console getting yet another second wind. Smash Bros. and Blaster Master are definite buys once Christmas is out of the way.

    Have they released Faxanadu?  Where can I find a list of all games anyway.

    I don't understand the release progression for these virtual console games.  Are they trying to build up anticipation or something?  Technical reason? If it was me Smash Brothers would have been up there very quickly and I don't see why it wasn't.

    Another game that should have been up there quick.  I feel like the Earthbound games would sell well as a VC release here in the US.
