Massive Euro VC update: five Sega Mega Drive classics
It’s been a while since European Wii owners got this big a haul in the Virtual Console department – and frankly, it’s a well-deserved haul at that. Not one, not three, but five Sega Mega Drive classics are heading to Wii fans in Europe, headlined by none other than Sega’s own mascot in one of his most legendary adventures yet, Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Let’s get to it and see what sort of retro action we’re in for!
Headlining this smorgasbord of retro gaming is none other than Sonic himself, in his third adventure that introduces silent protagonist and owner of two very powerful fists, Knuckles the Echidna. This epic adventure that pits you against Robotnik and his metal monstrosities lets you harness a variety of wicked power-ups to dash, jump and bounce your way to victory.
Next up is Ghouls n’ Ghosts, the sequel to Ghouls n’ Goblins. Arthur must wear the legendary suit of armor once more – and his pair of heart-printed boxers underneath it – to save a fair maiden’s soul from the demonic forces that hold it captive.
Crack Down is a two-player shoot fest where you must infiltrate bases, plant bombs, and get out safely before things go boom. ESWAT: City Under Siege gets you armed in the fight against crime in a futuristic city, while Shining in the Darkness is a 3D dungeon romp with classic RPG elements.
Certainly high-quality titles indeed. Updates as we get them!
