US Virtual Console plays catch-up

[wraggster]

The latest Wii Virtual Console update has just landed in the good old US of A, and for once gamers across the pond are getting the games we received many weeks ago.

Already released in Europe NES dirt-racer Excitebike is the first retro title up for download in North America, which if you're too young or memory fatigued to remember from the 80s you might recognize from the GBA Wario Wares.

Second is Namco's TurboGrafx offering Splatter House, which appeared on the European Wii Shop last week. In case you missed it the first time around, Splatter House is an early attempt at the survival horror genre, pitting you and your girlfriend against zombies in an abandoned mansion, which sounds familiar.


Finishing up this week's North American VC update is Beyond Oasis (or The Story of Thor to us), a Mega Drive action-RPG that apparently has you playing as Prince Ali, a bloke who's found a golden armlet and is using it for all kinds of spirit-y mischief.

Look out for the Europe Virtual Console update this Friday, where hopefully we'll get some more notable titles than in recent weeks.
