SEGA is proud to announce that the next edition of our Vintage Collection series is headed here in late 2011 and early 2012, to PlayStation Network and Nintendo Wii Virtual Console! This collection features favorites from the Wonder Boy series as well as some other gems from that era, including one of the first titles produced by legendary designer Yu Suzuki.

The biggest news of this bundle is that we are releasing a fully localized version of Wonder Boy in Monster World IV, which has never had a previous release in the West – it has previously appeared only in Japan.

Here’s everything that’s on the way:

Yesterday an Amazon page and boxart were found for Rayman Origins on Wii. Before that, we heard that Ubisoft was planning on announcing the Wii version of the title at E3. Apparently that’s exactly what Ubisoft had in store. The company told Dutch website N1ntendo:

“Rayman Origins will also be released as a retail-game for Wii, even though this is/was supposed to be a surprise for this year’s E3.”

I suppose we’ll receive an official announcement about the game at E3. Now the only uncertainty is whether or not the DS GameStop listing was an error…

Thanks to Dragoon for the tip!
