VC Friday: A question of value

This week's PAL Virtual Console line-up isn't short on quality, but it represents fairly awful value. As dreamy as we find any Metal Slug title, there are cheaper ways to play all three of this week's offerings.
Want Metal Slug 2? We'd recommend picking up this. Fancy having your delicate gamer's ego rudely kicked in by Forgotten Worlds? There's an excellent compilation out there for a bunch of platforms that costs peanuts and comes with another 20 or so games. If you can't find Space Invaders for less than £6/€8, you're probably reading the wrong website. Better still: lavish those points on Space Invaders Get Even!.
- Metal Slug 2 -- Neo Geo -- 900 Wii Points
- Space Invaders: The Original Game -- SNES -- 800 Wii Points
- Forgotten Worlds -- Mega Drive -- 800 Wii Points
Metal Slug 2 (Neo Geo)
Space Invaders: The Original Game (SNES) and Forgotten Worlds (Mega Drive)

C'mon - FW is one of the best shmups made. I think David's not recommending it because it's too hard for him. Heck, he didn't even enter the shop to upgrade...
