Three new Virtual Console games are on track for the Japanese Wii U eShop next week. Tactics Ogre (Super Famicom), Volleyball (Famicom), and Bonk’s Revenge (PC Engine) will be out on March 12. Pricing is set at 800 yen, 500 yen, and 600 yen respectively.
Several months following the game’s launch, Call of Duty: Ghosts players on Wii U can finally pick up a piece of DLC.
“Free Fall”, an extra map offered to users on other platforms as a pre-order bonus, can now be downloaded from the eShop. Activision made the DLC available to Call of Duty: Ghosts owners on other consoles as well today.
Free Fall is completely free to download. If you have the game, you have nothing to lose by downloading it!
Veteran Nintendo producer Kensuke Tanabe and Retro Studios CEO Michael Kelbaugh have both weighed in on why the Big N is against putting its games on mobile devices.
Tanane told GameSpot that translating the controls available with traditional games is “a really, really difficult task.” Also, when all is said and done, “I want Nintendo games to be played on Nintendo hardware,” he stated.
