Virt-Euro-L Console Friday [UPDATED WITH NEOGEO GOODNESS]

, , , , ,


After the excitment on the Hanabi Event, Nintendo have passed the baton to SEGA this week, who have released 4 games onto the EUVC.

MegaDrive (800 points)

NEW+ Streets of Rage 3
Crime boss Mr. X is back with a new plan to replace city officials with robotic doubles! So it’s up to the vigilantes Axel, Blaze, Skate and cybernetic newcomer Dr. Zan to rid the streets of crime for the final time.

NEW+ Golden Axe 3
Play as three new characters, unleash new moves such as team-based attacks and spells, and restore peace to the kingdom once again.

NEW+ Super Thunder Blade
The console-exclusive follow-up to the arcade original that sees you piloting your lone attack helicopter against waves of enemy craft across land, sea and air.

NEW+ Landstalker: The Treasures of King Nole
A fantasy role-playing game that follows the exploits of young treasure hunter Nigel, on a quest to seek the lost fortune of a tyrannical monarch.

There was an announcement this week that NEOGEO will soon be heading the the EUVC. I was hoping they'd start today, but maybe next week...
I lied like a cheap watch! The First NEOGEO game was added today! Thanks for the spot, eightball19!

NEOGEO (900 points)

NEW+ Fatal Fury
The first game of the Fatal Fury series allowed players to select one of three characters, Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard, and Joe Higashi, as they battled a gauntlet of computer-controlled opponents ending with Billy Kane and Geese Howard. When two players were playing, players had the option of either playing cooperatively against a computer opponent or competitively against each other. This game was later ported to Genesis and SNES by Takara, and included a versus mode that allowed you to play as all of the CPU controlled characters.

As usual the updated list of EUVC games can be found here, along with the NAVC games here, and the Japan VC games here.

Yeah, I've just noticed. It wasn't mentioned on Nintendo's site for some reason. I'll update when I get back from work, or if a helpful mod wants to do the honours :smile:

If you have someone to co-op with, GET GOLDEN AXE III. It's awesome. Also don't use the giant; strong, but too slow if you want to win the game.
