It took Nintendo exactly one year since the launch of Wii to cough up my most anticipated Virtual Console title, Wrecking Crew. Check out this week’s releases:
Wrecking Crew – NES – 500 Wii Points
In the days before Mario and Luigi became sports stars in their downtime between plumbing and saving the Princess, they tried their hands as one-man wrecking crews. With a hammer as their only tool, players take control of the brothers and set out to destroy ladders, rip out pipes, knock down walls and detonate explosive devices.
Sonic 3D Blast – Genesis – 800 Wii Points
The evil Dr. Eggman (aka Dr. Robotnik) stumbles upon an alternate dimension where some odd birds called Flickies have the ability to travel anywhere. In order to get help in his search for the Chaos Emeralds, Dr. Eggman transforms the Flickies into robots that will help him track down his coveted gems.
Super Air Zonk – TG16 CD-ROM – 800 Wii Points
Zonk is back in Super Air Zonk, the sequel to the shooting game spin-off of the Bonk series, Air “Zonk.” Now moving to a rockabilly beat and able to transform into nine different characters, Zonk lets loose through seven action-packed stages in another battle against his arch nemesis, SandroVitch.
