Gunstar Heroes

A little birdie has told us what games you UK Virtual Console users can expect to be getting for the rest of December. The list is likely to be very similar across the whole of the EU depending on licensing issues. Sorry Australia and New Zealand you will miss out on the sublime Devil Crush, life is a bitch huh?

Here's the release schedule as it stands for the UK for the rest of December:

Friday 15th December

Urban Champion - NES
Solomon's Key - NES
Pinball - NES
Columns - Megadrive
Gunstar Heroes - Megadrive
Ristar - Megadrive
Dr. Robotonik's Mean Bean Machine - Megadrive
Alien Crush - PC Engine

Friday 22nd December

Donkey Kong Jr - NES
Soccer - NES
Tennis - NES
Space Harrier II - Megadrive
Toe Jam & Earl - Megadrive
Military Madness - PC Engine

Friday 29th December

Baseball - NES
Ice Hockey - NES
R-Type - PC Engine
Sim City - SNES
Super Probotector - SNES
Super Castlevania 4 - SNES

We've known about most of these in one shape or form for a while but it certainly does whet the appetite to think of Gunstar Hereos, Alien Crush, Probotector (Contra III !) and Castlevania 4 coming our way soon. It's strange we haven't heard much about upcoming N64 releases. I guess we have a lot of good things to look forward to for the new year!
