VC Monday Madness: Simon's Quest, Magician Lord and Samurai-Ghost

by David Hinkle { Oct 29th 2007 at 10:09AM }

Another week, another Virtual Console update. And, with this week's update, we've got three new titles to check out. The obvious high-profile game here is Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, which you all likely remember (whether you enjoyed it or not). That doesn't mean we should forget about the other two games, though.

This week's releases are:

Castlevania II: Simon's Quest (NES, 1 player, 500 Wii Points)
Samurai-Ghost (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points)
Magician Lord (Neo Geo, 1 - 2 players, 900 Wii Points)

And, as usual, be sure to stop back later for our video wrap-up of today's releases.

Sweet, Simon's quest is the Castlevania game I actually played when I was a kid and thought I was just playing Castlevania. And Magician Lord was actually one of the games I played in the pathetic excuse for an arcade where I grew up (which, for those that don't know, was a small town in the jungle on a mountain in /Indonesia/, so I figured the games were pretty obscure).
Now if only I had my Wii.
