Random imports to appear on Australian VC
The OFLC has rated two new games that are headed to the Australian Virtual Console in the near future, and they're spectacularly weird! Spectacularly weird in that both games were never released outside of Japan, and neither game is currently available or slated to be available on the Japanese VC.
First is Do Re Mi Fantasy: Milon no Dokidoki Daibouken (Milon's Big Heart-Pounding Adventure), the Super NES sequel to Milon's Secret Castle, which seems to receive rave reviews from those who have played it. Also it's really adorable. Hudson rarely puts anything on the VC that isn't a Turbografx-16 game, and out of nowhere they decided to put up a Super Famicom platformer?
Second is Smash Ping Pong, a Famicom Disk System port of Konami's Ping Pong in which the paddles move automatically, and the player is required to time shots and choose shot type. On a system that made its name with a realistically-controlled sports game, it seems odd to dig this one up.

That guy looks awfully familiar to a certain hero of time.

That was my thought too, i thought it was a side-scrolling 16-bit Zelda of some sort, until i read the article

This Milon game is a must download for me.
And he looks a lot like the yousei/fairy/mana type characters from Gust's Atelier series. I love those so much:

Oh, wow. I hope the US VC gets the Milon import, too. The original was great and I'd like to give this one a whirl.

That Milon import looks really good!
