RPG fans rejoice! The best game in the Mana series is coming to a Virtual Console near you this Christmas!

The role playing epic which set a benchmark for all its genre peers will be available on the European VC on Boxing Day. From the 26th, you can play the Square masterpiece all over again and enjoy those beautiful graphics, revolutionary combat and chilling score. Think of it as a belated Christmans present to yourself. Secret of Mana will cost 800 points.

Also available this Friday will be the Master System version of a classic: Sonic the Hedgehog 2. If you've spent up most of your points on a certain RPG this Christmas, it's only 500 points. That's more than cheap enough to watch that hedgehog die on some spikes. And again. And again.

You can expect reviews from our resident retro junkie Sam C Gittins very soon!

Thanks to Hero-of-Time on the forums!
