News: Dragons, Space & Sports On VC

Another three titles hit the Virtual Console this week: Breath of Fire II, GALAGA '90, and Volleyball!

First up this week is the classic Breath of Fire II, setting the Virtual Console alight. Originally released on SNES in 1996, this is a game of friendship, heroics, rivalries and combat in a role-playing format. Players assume the role of Ryu, who sets off to rescue his sister battling mighty dragons and other foes with his brave band of followers along the way. Available for 800 Wii Points, this is a game you don't want to miss.

Next up, is the 1989 arcade shooter GALAGA '90. This Turbografx title will once again have players fighting their way through space to breach the enemy strong hold of the Planet Galaga. With each level split into rounds featuring different alien enemies, players must seek out the best route to their goal, collecting Capsules to open new Dimensions along the way. Available to download today for 600 Wii Points.

Finally, the Virtual Console is taking you all the way back to 1987, for some Volleyball action, originally released on the NES. With eight male or female teams to select from, players pick their ultimate team and take part in practise rounds, before heading off to participate in games at an international level. With lobs, attacks and daring dives all at a players disposal, take on the Wii or a human opponent as this sporting classic arrives on Virtual Console for 500 Wii Points.

Look out for full reviews of both of these in the next issue of our Virtual Console Weekly feature.
