This week is another example of the Hanabi festival on Virtual Console in Europe and Australia, where games which weren't originally released in those regions are set loose for thrills and giggles. There's also two WiiWare games thrown into the mix.
Gradius Rebirth (WiiWare)Bit Boy (WiiWare)Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen (SNES)Pulseman (Genesis)People are really talking up Ogre Battle as a great strategy game, and Pulseman looks like fun too. All in all it's a good week, with one exception.
As someone who was around for the 8-bit days of gaming I wanted to love Bit Boy, but it didn't pan out that way.
