Love Metal Slug, so Merc Kings could be well worth checking out. That's it for me, I've utterly no interest in Fez.

To people not familiar with the Dynasty Warriors games:

The Xtreme Legends spin offs usually aren't worth bothering with.

Three brilliant GBA games for Wii U VC! Nice diverse range, too.

I suspect some will be complaining about the pricing, but these titles can go for pretty hefty sums on eBay in their original GBA cartridge form, especially if you want a boxed version. More to the point, each of these games is well worth £6 odd in terms of their quality, content and 'lastability', in my opinion.

I am one of the ones who feel that Nintendo seem a little off on their pricing. I fear it scares people off more than it entices people to buy them.

Their pricing is indeed a bit off for a lot of games. Also the fact so many games available on console aren't on the 3DS e-shop.

I actually just posted it into the thread, but it would make a decent sig image wouldn't it?

It's from KnowYourMeme... They love Goat Sim over there...

Oh man... new Trials! It's gotta be good, right?

Also, people diss Nintendo for lack of VC games (which I partly agree with) but lately they've been cranking them out onto their eshops alongside new games, too.

Just a tad excited for the new Trials game but I might also have to pick up Golden Sun and finally see it to completion (my 20 hour save on an emulator must've been at least 2 PC's ago).

It's a little annoying to me that it seems they're going to VC release the first Golden Sun but not the continuation/follow-up/sequel, The Lost Age.

They're not? That's a bit of a shame, was just thinking about how we only ever got the first part of Shining Force III a second ago. That thought couldn't have come at a worse time, probably jinxed it :cry:

Hah, yeah that sucked too.

Nintendo haven't said that they're not doing TLA, but equally they haven't announced any more Wii U VC GBA games at all yet. My hunch is even if they do Golden Sun 2 won't be among them but I'll happily be proved wrong.

Trials is a game I've always wanted to play as I know I'd love it, but being a Sony console owner I've never had the chance. Really pleased Fusion is heading to PS4, I'll be picking it up this weekend for sure.

Hmmm... I actually bought a copy of Golden Sun 2 for the GBA last week because it seems so unlikely to me I'll see it on the VC (and even if I did, I'd want to play it while commuting).
