This week only sees us receiving one retro titles via the Wii's Virtual Console service, leaving us all a bit sad inside. Those with a love for tactical simulation titles will probably be a lot happier than we are, counting down the minutes until the title goes live. Today you'll be able to download:
- Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire - SNES - 1 - 8 players - 800 Wii Points
[Via press release]

I'll give this one a shot. I like Nobunaga's Ambition back in the day. And with some multi-player action, maybe I can challenge the wife to something more than Wii Sports or Toe Jam and Earl.

How do you play 8 players when you can only sync up 4 wiimotes? 4 remotes and 4 Gamecube controllers?

What's that sound? Oh, right the trickle of games that constitutes the "non-drought" everybody fervently insists is going on. Holy hell, Super Paper Mario can NOT get here soon enough.

This game is a hotseat game, only one controller needed. It is turn based strategy at its finest. RTK4 on the SNES in my opinion the first in the series that was just as good on the pc as it was on the console. Everything after 4 was made as far as I know only on the Playstation so I'm guessing any of the newer ones will not show up on the VC.

@James, cut this drought nonsense. If you're a 360 fan, you have to throw your drought argument at both the Wii and the PS3, but even then you're just bragging about a year long head start, because the 360 didn't exactly have a brilliant launch line-up.
If you're a PS3 fan, then you're talking out of your ass. Metacritic right now lists 33 PS3 games and 44 Wii games. And let's not forget that Wii's VC has 69 games while XBLA has 49 games and the PlayStation Network has 9 games that play on the PS3 and 10 more that require a PSP.

And if you're a Wii fan, download one of the 69 VC games or buy a used GameCube game. Everything will be fine.

Draught? Maybe because they're not games you're interested in, but we just saw: Tiger Woods, Prince of Persia, Godfather, and Cooking Mama come out this month. Yeah, most are ports, but to me they're just new games.

Ill second Bad Mojo with Nobunaga's Ambition, that game ate up many a night with friends. I did rent this one once, may have to buy it this time, would be alot better if they could add an online multiplayer to it.
