Saturn would be good... maybe even some low end Dreamcast software... and the Gameboy is always appreciated. Of course Neo Geo is due soon... I'd like to see some CDi as well...

A Link to the Past was what I was waiting for. I've got the GBA version but I can't get on with portable Zelda's (aside from Link's Awakening)... I want it on the full screen with the Hori SNES/Gamecube pad I have.

Now I have three VC games. Shadowman please!

Just found out that Nintendo were a little slow in putting up Castlevania for the NES.

I think Nintendo are a little worried that if they put up too many N64 games, no one will bother with the NES/SNES/MD/TG games...

Though I'd rather see more N64 and SNES games...

Awesome, a shame I've already got a port of it for GBA. We need some more N64 games other than Zelda or Mario, or at least release Zelda: Majoras Mask and that'll be great, but there is a definitely a lack of games for that console.

Just one new game this week: Zelda on the SNES (arguably the best Zelda game!)

I'd like to hope Nintendo branch out a bit with the Virtual Console so that we see a few more retro games like those on Saturn or even Super Gameboy (at a low cost that is...)

I can't wait for The Story of Thor/Beyond Oasis for the Sega Mega Drive, they released it in Japan and USA but not yet in the UK.

Worms is great, but it annoys me that they didn't use the great little animations in the XBL version, which, to me, is what made the game so appealing beyond the gameplay.

Turtles is good too, but I don't think I'd pay for it.

Still waiting for the Stars to VC points to be done so that I can get a load of VC games.

Galaga, Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts and Double Dungeons this week.

Worms on XBLA beats Wii for a change...

I think they're more so for the youngsters who don't have access to a credit card....

Bio-Hazard Battle, Sword of Vermilion and Streets of Rage for Mega Drive, and Chew Man Fu for the Turbografx.
