Some WiiWare game called My Aquarium came out. If you like feeding fish, but don't like them getting stuck in the air filter or eating each other, then and only then can I recommend it. Clu Clu Land is out, in case you didn't get your fill of that game in Animal Crossing. Now, while the three games aren't collectively as great as last week, the thing that makes this week actually epic is that Super Mario RPG has been released in America. If you've never played Super Mario RPG before, then I suppose I never did a good enough job of convincing you to. Go and buy it. You can get those other two games too, but don't forget that Mega Man 9 will be coming any time now. It'd be kind of embarrassing to say "I haven't played Mega Man 9 yet, because I wanted to watch some virtual fish swim about aimlessly."

^ Ah, yeah actually. It's about $30, and it only supports Gamecube controllers. It also requires a Gamecube memory card, and unlike many Wii games, the data is stored on a mini-dvd. 0, 1, and 3 are also available. :P
Really though, 0-4 are all playable on GameCube and Wii. Unfortunately, the ports of 2 and 3 go for generally higher prices, but that probably doesn't stop hardcore fans from having them all. I don't think there's a lot of demand for Resident Evil 2 N64, I've barely even heard anybody mention it. Actually, you might be the first I've heard. >_>
But no, there's been no news. I'd find other methods of playing it before I waited too long. They can toy with you for a long, long time if you let them, and you'd be better off not waiting for Virtual Console games you can easily find elsewhere, as I simply can't justify that kind of wait for a digital download. If that doesn't deter you, perhaps the fact that there have been only 14 N64 games, all of which were originally published by Nintendo, and the fact that no M-rated games have appeared on the Wii Shop yet will. Yeah, I'd stop waiting if I were you.

^ I do, actually. I recently bought a copy of Sega GT 2002 & Jet Set Radio Future double-pack for $0.99, and Metroid Fusion for $10 at my local Gamestop about a day or two ago. They also had three copies of Resident Evil 0, plenty of copies of REmake and RE4, two copies of RE2, and a copy of RE3. They've been there for months, too.
Unfortunately, the price is still as ungodly as the prices on most first-party Nintendo games, say, SSBM, Mario Kart: Double Dash, and any of their GBA games that aren't called Metroid or F-Zero. (and I find it extremely ironic that F-Zero GX is $10 and in such plentiful supply. I suppose everybody has that game by now, but if you don't there's no reason not to own that masterpiece. ^_^)
Well, you've got a PS2, right? I would hope you do, I consider that system a staple for any serious gamer. Resident Evil 2 is notoriously easy to find on that. ;)
I'm sure you've got your reasons. I just have to warn you that you should distinguish your interest in Resident Evil on the Wii Shop until it actually shows up. You could easily be waiting for well over a year, or maybe more. No joke.
Hmm... I'd have to say Resident Evil. Conker, Goldeneye, and Banjo Kazooie will be on Virtual Console before Earthbound. XD
Well, maybe not, but they'll try their darndest to delay it as long as they can. I can say it'll happen slightly before Duke Nukem Forever is released, and definitely not before Herzog Zwei is on Virtual Console. It's a little known scientific fact that every week that Herzog Zwei doesn't appear on the Virtual Console or get a worthy remake, the universe becomes a little more unstable. The Earth will implode if nothing is done about this, and this will most likely occur before any of the above appear on VC...

Nobody has handled this week's VC releases. Well, I'm not going to go to the trouble of thinking up words to describe "Cho Aniki", so somebody else can write up this week. XD
I was reading in an interview that Rare games is not entirely impossible. Rare said there is a chance that stuff like Banjo could come to Virtual Console. I don't know about Conker is there a game on the Wii Shop Channel thats rated M?
Want to know something funny? The Xbox port of Conker's Bad Fur Day was heavily censored while the N64 version was not.I don't think any Rare game will come to the VC unless its a Nintendo property like Donkey Kong or Star Fox.
If you are looking for some great games, this is the best week for VC. I lived my childhood playing Super Dodgeball and Vectorman, I still play them in this time period. Also, Megaman 9 has been released.
I highly recomend anyone to buy Super Dodgeball and Vectorman if you haven't got it. If you need an explanation on how great these games are, you are going to have to wait... My face is melted by the sure awesomeness of this update.
Well, I'm gonna download it tonight, so I don't know what it is about... besides that it is played like any other multiplayer Bomberman. It has 8 player off-line and 8 player on, while 4 people can play online at the same time on the same system. Has Mii support, so you can have a Mii head or the known head. 10 levels and items, should be fun.

Don't worry Cyro, I got Orbient under control.
It is a oversea remake of Bit Generation's Orbital that came out for
the Gameboy Advance at the end of its time. The whole series was a
handfull of simple games, but majority of them would have fantastic
pick-up-and-play fun, and I found Orbital (now Orbient) the best of the
bunch.
Simply put, its like galactic Katamari Damacy. Pick up other
planets to revolve around you, watch yourself grow enough to pick up
the key-planet and move on to the next level.
You have no general movement but push away and pull towards. If
you don't put in any input, you just get push by the bigger
gravitational pull by the bigger planet respectfully.
If you are looking for a cheep game with a new experience, Orbient is an overall fun game.
