http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.nintendowiifanboy.com/media/2008/05/biomiracle052108.gif (http://www.esrb.org/ratings/search.jsp)Early last month, we found OFLC listings (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/04/03/witness-the-miracle-of-new-import-games-for-australias-vc/) for two import games: Gley Lancer, which has since been released (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/05/16/vc-friday-more-hanabi-festival-shooting-goodness/) in Europe and Australia, and Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa. A release of the obscure platformer anywhere outside of Japan seemed incongruous enough, but now, bafflingly, it's planned for a North American release as well, though there's no guarantee it'll show up any time soon. Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa, in case (for some reason) you aren't familiar with it, is a Famicom Disk System platformer starring a baby with a rattle.

Both Gley Lancer and Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa are now rated by the ESRB, along with non-imports City Connection (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/03/11/vc-tuesday-cheap-connection/) and Alex Kidd in Miracle World. Unfortunately, there's no sign of Gley Lancer's Hanabi Festival (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/tag/hanabi-festival) cohorts like Gradius II, Star Parodier, and Cho Aniki.
