Alien Storm, Mach Rider On Deck For Wii VC

via kotaku

Two more games destined for the Wii Virtual Console have shown up on the ESRB's web site, making them likely candidates for upcoming Shop Channel releases.

Alien Storm started out as a Sega arcade title, taking the Golden Axe formula, all the rage in 1990, and sending it to the future. Eliminate an alien invasion with your choice of three Alien Busters, Karen, Garth or Scooter over eight stages in this Genesis... um, classic. I think I still have this cartridge.

Mach Rider also takes place in the future, one in which Earth has been, you guessed it, invaded by "evil forces" the Quadrunners. The NES racer was released in 1985 by Nintendo, featured a level editor and looked almost exactly like F1 Race. Minutes of fun, this one.

Is it hot in here or is it just this Wii Points card burning a hole in my pocket?
