Koei strategy pair rated by ESRB

The ESRB has rated a pair of Koei games that aren't Dynasty Warriors for release on the Virtual Console. Both are historical strategic RPGs, though with very different settings. The first, Nobunaga's Ambition (top screens above), tasks players with conquering feudal Japan, while Uncharted Waters: New Horizons is based more on life at sea, and lets you indulge in sailing, trading, and even piracy.
We assume these are the NES versions, though could be wrong -- there were versions of each on the Genesis and SNES. Considering a boxed of copy of either goes for about $20 or $25 on eBay, we could be in for a bargain when these appear.

I snatched a copy of this for 3 dollars at gamestop about 6 years ago, a friend and I recently tried to play it again [never had the patience back then] the first campaign is incredibly difficult if you don't know what the different symbols stand for, that top screen looks like the genesis version. It's fun, but is a huge time sink, a whole lot of replay value I'm sure if you can beat it the first time.
