Three new Sega titles hit Euro VC

Europe will be seeing three new (well, old actually) Sega titles on the Wii Virtual Console this week. All three titles also have a little “orb” theme going on, although the last one’s pretty tenuous at best. Anyway, on to the titles.

First up is Sonic Spinball. It’s pinball with a Sonic twist, as Sonic (who is shaped like an orb when he does that spinning thing he does so well) tries to thwart Dr.Eggman’s (who is also orb-shaped!) plans by causing a volcanic eruption by removing the Chaos Emeralds used to pacify the firey mountain. Sonic Spinball launches this week for 800 Wii Points.

Next, we have Vectorman. This Sega title from the ’90s features Vectorman (who’s made of – you guessed it – orbs!) as he tries to bring an end to a robot war and bring peace to Earth through the use of his powers of transformation. Vectorman will be downloadable for 800 Wii Points.

Finally, we have The Story of Thor. There are no orbs in this one apart from some of the spirit attacks, but this game’s American title is Beyond Oasis and “Oasis” begins with an “O”, which looks like – wait for it – an orb! Well, we did say the connection was tenuous. Anyway, this action adventure title can be downloaded for 800 Wii Points. See, even the download costs all have that orb vibe!
