Virtual Console: Sega and Hudson games are a go!
Our trenchcoat-clad Joystiq
informant, Christopher Grant is currently listening in on Satoru Iwata's GDC keynote and has informed us that Sega and
Hudson have announced full support for the Revolution Virtual Console. To be more specific, the "best" titles from the Sega Genesis and the TurboGrafx will be available on the system's download service. Well, I guess that's not very specific at all. Regardless, I believe I speak for everyone when I say: Holy yes!
More news (and a more fleshed out post) as soon as we get it.

figures... I just bought a genesis a few weeks ago to play some old classics, and had to pay 8 bucks just to get an AV cable for it...

You know, if they could somehow get Dungeon Explorer from the 16, my life would be complete.
I know it wasn't the best game, but I had a lot of fun at D&D gatherings where we'd break out the TurboTap and rokk 5-player DE.
Even sadder, I still remember IMGAJ MDPAI... I was indeed a Hermit player.

If I can play Tecmo Super Bowl again I will be a happy man.

I'll take it even further: If I can play Wonder Boy again, I'll never again be a sad man.

Hudson Soft is great. They came out with Bonk's Adventure, Bloody Roar, Adventure Island, and Bomberman among others. Super Bomberman 2 for the SNES was one of the best mutiplayer games I've ever played. Great fun for 4 players.
