Adventure Island’s Virtual Console gameplay video

Just when you thought the diaper-wearing, axe-throwing, skateboard-riding Master Higgins from Adventure Island was but a faint memory, Nintendo surprises us all by bringing the game back to life via the Wii Virtual Console. Can’t believe it? You better because we’ve got a trailer of Hudson Soft‘s Adventure Island right here. Watch how the person playing in this sequence tames the wild, suicidal skateboard of doom above the clouds. Incredible!

Reminiscing how this was an alternative of sorts to the first Mario games on the NES, we can’t help but feel sorry for ourselves for never being able to finish this game. We admire those skilled people who actually survived all the rocks, bonfires, and spiders that Adventure Island had and we hope to hear how you did it so we might accomplish our unfinished business on the Nintendo Wii.
