Ogre Battle 64 Destined For Virtual Console

One of the rarer Nintendo 64 games is coming to Virtual Console. Next month, Japan gets Ogre Battle 64.



Published by Nintendo in Japan and Atlus in North America, this Quest developed game is a direct sequel to Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen. Back then Quest was an independent studio. Now, Quest is part of Square Enix. Not sure if this will affect a domestic release of Ogre Battle 64 or not. Square Enix and Atlus have a relationship since the Final Fantasy studio published Odin Sphere and Persona 4 in Europe.

In addition to Ogre Battle 64 these are the Virtual Console games on Japan’s slate for January 2010.
