Hudson Entertainment this week announced that it will release the classic puzzle game Chew Man Fu to Nintendo Co.'s Wii Virtual Console.
The title was originally released for NEC's TurboGrafx-16 in 1990.
In Chew Man Fu, players must roll four spheres onto their respective tiles in each level. The game will include all original 50+ levels and a two-player kickball mode.
"Chew Man Fu represents an era of gameplay during which Hudson established itself as a creator of fun games that were easy to pick up and play, and also appealed to a wide range of gamers," said John Greiner, president of Hudson Entertainment. "With such a fantastic catalog of games released over the last 30 years, Hudson is in a great position to bring back some of these classics to a whole new generation of gamers."
Nintendo's Wii is the best-selling console in the month of Jan., selling 435,503 units in the U.S.
Chew Man Fu for Wii is expected to launch next month. A mobile phone version will also be released at the same time.
